Guest PartVie Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 What is ACT btw?? Link to comment
KaKop Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) Though not a therapy initially considered for OCD ACT is now also used for OCD. One applied concept is mindfulness, which is also used in Jefferey Schwartz's 4 Steps. What I especially like about ACT is that it addresses not only your core problems (anxiety, OCD etc.) but also incorporates the concept of your personal values - (try/learn to) act according to your values. I think it is worth to be considered even by people without any serious problems. KaKop Link to comment
