Reviews

The deep message of this book is that therapists are human beings too. Like our clients, we therapists thrive when we are better able to think freely, feel fully, and focus on bringing meaning and purpose into our lives. This book shows how ACT can be used to guide that journey. Instead of just 'talking the talk, ' this book asks us as clinicians to 'walk the walk'--to apply the change processes targeted by ACT to challenges we face. Increasing our psychological flexibility is important not just for ourselves, but also for our clients. --Steven C. Hayes, PhD, co-developer of ACT; Foundation Professor of Psychology, University of Nevada, Reno
