Webinar | Durham Community Health Centre - Get in on the ACT (Thursday mornings October - December, 2024 9:30-11AM)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
The group will run on Thursday mornings from October 3-December 5 (with a 2-week break October 17 and 24)
I will teach mindfulness and acceptance-based skills to help people be able to navigate difficult thoughts and feelings as well as assist in identifying & acting on their values in order to live a meaningful, flexible life
Each session will involve some education, discussion, and skill-building exercises
ACT is an evidence-based treatment for depression, anxiety and other difficulties
Together we will learn and practice to:
Be open to painful emotions and difficult thoughts
Step back from our thoughts and learn to unhook from them
Keep our focus on the present
Live by our values
