Book Description Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is more than just a set of techniques for structuring psychotherapeutic treatment; it also offers a new, insightful, transdiagnostic approach to case conceptualization and to mental health in general. Learn to put this popular new psychotherapeutic model to work in your practice with this book, the first guide that explains how to do case conceptualization within an ACT framework. ACT in Practice offers an introduction to ACT, an overview of its impact, and a brief introduction to the six core processes of ACT treatment--the six points of the hexaflex model and its pathological alter ego, the so-called inflexahex. It describes how to accomplish case conceptualizations in general and offers precis of the literature that establish the importance and value of case conceptualization. This guide also offers possible alternative case conceptualization for cases from different therapeutic traditions, a great help to therapists who come from a more traditional CBT background. Exercises throughout help you to evaluate the information you have just learned so that you may effectively integrate ACT into your practice.

Excellent resource for developing your ACT knowledge and skills August 19, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've been receiving training in ACT for several years and am familiar with the small library of ACT books available right now. This one is my favorite - it's a very readable and yet thorough guide. ACT principles and techniques are nicely blended with a presentation of theory and philosophy - and it is done in a way that is accessible to those who are relatively unfamiliar with behavior analysis. I wish I'd had access to this book during graduate school! This is the perfect resource for anyone who has just begun to explore this therapy and its theoretical and philosophical background.
At last! A readable ACT-introduction for therapists June 16, 2008 I am a Norwegian psychologist, who has been looking for a book that is both readable and well written, and at the same time has some depth knowledge about ACT. This is it. I now have five books about ACT. This is the best one!
