Acceptance & Commitment Therapy
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy at North Shore Psychological Services
At North Shore Psychological Services, we are dedicated to helping individuals develop resilience and emotional well-being through evidence-based treatments like acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). ACT is a powerful therapeutic approach that encourages individuals to embrace their thoughts and emotions rather than struggling against them. By combining mindfulness techniques with committed action, ACT helps individuals lead more meaningful, values-driven lives.
At North Shore Psychological Services, our expert clinicians guide clients through ACT by helping them:
Learn to acknowledge distressing thoughts and emotions without allowing them to dictate actions.
Cultivate present-moment awareness to reduce anxiety and emotional reactivity.
Clarify what truly matters in life and make choices aligned with those values.
Take purposeful steps toward positive change, even in the presence of discomfort.
Recognize how avoidance of difficult emotions can lead to suffering and learning healthier coping strategies.
