• Confidently Apply ACT from Intake through Treatment Create a guiding framework for effectively usingacceptance and commitment therapy to cultivate lasting change The Gap between Theory and Practice It’s one thing to know the ACT model and its principles in the abstract.It’s another to implement them in a way that’s impactful and organic, especially when you’re sitting across from a challenging client and the clock is ticking.With clients who seem disengaged and resistant to change, or cling to goals of diminishing “bad” feelings, the way forward is often unclear.In these scenarios, the theory might make perfect sense to practitioners conceptually . .

• .But when it comes to applying ACT, they’re less confident.Self-doubt creeps in, and they hesitate to make their next move, questioning if it’s the best one to guide the client toward meaningful progress.And unlike the masterful sessions clinicians see in workshops, many of them instead share experiences like the following: They work comfortably with acceptance and defusion, but struggle to find the right exercise to target self-as-context, so avoid it in sessions They sometimes feel like teachers instead of therapists, relying on lecturing to introduce concepts instead of weaving experiential exercises naturally into sessions They feel stuck when it comes to challenging clients, unsure of how to move forward or make their sessions as valuable as possible They hesitate to push certain clients to engage with difficult thoughts or feelings for fear of demotivating them further, but end up on different pages about their therapeutic aims They approach sessions with rigid ideas about what should happen next rather than being able to respond flexibly to the moment Experiences like these are surprisingly common among ACT practitioners.Even skilled clinicians can feel uncertain when tailoring treatments for particularly difficult clients — especially without resorting to cookie-cutter interventions.But why is this the case, when we know the model and have seen it work?The answer goes beyond simply practicing more of the same, into something at the heart of this method.
