Acceptance & Commitment Therapy - ACT

At Triony Behavioral Health, we offer Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), a mindfulness-based approach that focuses on helping individuals develop psychological flexibility, clarify their values, and take committed action toward living a meaningful life. ACT is particularly effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and other mental health challenges.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a type of psychotherapy that combines mindfulness, acceptance, and behavior change strategies to promote psychological well-being and improve overall quality of life. It encourages individuals to accept their thoughts and feelings without judgment while taking actions aligned with their values and goals.

In ACT sessions at Triony, clients learn to identify their values and set meaningful goals for themselves. They also practice mindfulness techniques to increase present-moment awareness and develop psychological flexibility. ACT helps individuals recognize and defuse from unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, allowing them to take committed action toward building a rich and fulfilling life.

• Enhanced Psychological Flexibility: ACT helps individuals develop the skills to respond more effectively to difficult thoughts and emotions, leading to increased resilience and adaptability.
• Clarification of Values: By identifying their core values, individuals gain clarity about what matters most to them and can make choices that are in alignment with their true selves.
• Reduced Emotional Avoidance: ACT encourages individuals to embrace all aspects of their experience, including painful thoughts and emotions, without trying to change or avoid them.
• Improved Quality of Life: Through mindfulness practices and values-based action, individuals can create a life that is rich, meaningful, and fulfilling, even in the presence of challenges.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy is suitable for individuals struggling with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety disorders, depression, PTSD, chronic pain, substance abuse, and relationship issues. It can also be helpful for anyone looking to increase their psychological flexibility and live a more authentic and values-driven life.
