Workshop Description -- Sydney Fri July 18 and Sat July 29, 2008
This advanced 2-day clinical workshop will cover the practical application of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT, said as one word) for persons suffering from any of the major anxiety disorders and related concerns (e.g., anger, depression). ACT is a newer third-generation evidence-based behavior therapy that balances mindfulness and acceptance processes with commitment and behavior change processes.

Start: 9:30 am
End: 12:30 pm

In this series of 6 classes, participants will be introduced to and will practice the main techniques used in each of the six ACT core therapeutic processes: Acceptance, Experiential Aviodance, Cognitive defusion, Being Present in the moment, Self as Context and Defining Valued directions. Participants may choose to attend one or all of the sessions in service of the development of their competent ACT practice. (Places are limited to 20 participants per session to maximise practical experience in the session)
