ACCEPTANCE AND COMMITMENT THERAPY

Second Edition
The Process and Practice of Mindful Change
Steven C. Hayes, Kirk D. Strosahl and Kelly G. Wilson

Now in a revised and updated new edition, this book provides the definitive statement of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)—from conceptual and empirical foundations to clinical techniques—written by its originators. ACT is based on the idea that psychological rigidity is a root cause of a wide range of clinical problems. The authors describe effective, innovative ways to cultivate psychological flexibility by detecting and targeting six key processes: defusion, acceptance, attention to the present moment, self-awareness, values, and committed action. Sample therapeutic exercises and patient–therapist dialogues are integrated throughout.
