Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Sandy, UT

What Is Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a mindfulness-based behavioral therapy where client learns to accept their inner thoughts and feelings instead of suppressing them, allowing them to face their problems head on while also employing methods to solve them.
ACT with our mental health counselors uses six core processes to help clients develop mind flexibility.

• Acceptance: Embracing all of your experiences, including unwanted ones
• Cognitive delusion: Noticing your thoughts and thinking processes without trying to alter them.
• Being present: Allowing yourself to be fully aware of your experiences as they happen at this very moment in time.
• Self as Context: Getting in touch with your deep sense of self.
• Values: Recognizing what matters most to you and what you truly want your life to be about.
• Committed Action: Doing things that bring value to your life.
