In this powerful free acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) lesson from ACT cofounder Dr. Steven C. Hayes you'll learn why physical metaphors are so powerful to explain ACT processes and why willingness is like a switch (and a “wobbly” exercise to demonstrate it). You'll see a live demonstration of the “drop the rope” metaphor to introduce acceptance to clients and learn how to use acceptance with highly avoidant clients.

This free lesson provides a sneak peek into Dr. Hayes' fundamental on-demand course ACT Immersion is a deep dive into Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as a process-based therapy.

Over 10 modules you’ll learn how to read the six psychological flexibility processes and target them with a wide range of exercises. Through several real-play therapy sessions, clinical tapes and exercises, Dr. Hayes demonstrates first-hand how to skillfully apply ACT with clients.
