What is ACT?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, otherwise known as ACT, is a type of talk therapy centered around taking action. Specifically, ACT therapy techniques encourage you to accept your vulnerabilities and inner struggles, and commit to behaviors that will help you become more present in your life.
‍

ACT can be useful for treating a range of mental health conditions, including:

- Depression
- Anxiety disorders
- OCD
- Eating disorders
- Addictions and Substance use disorders

Evidence-based research has validated ACT to be an effective treatment for a range of mental health conditions.

Our therapists in Miami understand the challenging path of living with heavy thoughts and emotions.

Our integrative approach to ACT helps clients build psychological flexibility, and evidence-based strategies for lasting change.

Mindfulness-Based Behavioral Therapy

ACT helps clients develop awareness of difficult thoughts and emotions without becoming entangled in them.

Psychological Flexibility

Rather than avoiding distress, we support clients in making space for discomfort while taking values-driven action.

Evidence-Based, Values-Oriented Care

We integrate mindfulness, behavioral activation, and values clarification to promote meaningful, sustainable change.

Support for All Conditions

ACT is designed to help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions with greater resilience and purpose.

Questions about ACT?
We got you.

→ Is ACT just another type of talk therapy?
Not exactly. ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) combines mindfulness, behavior change, and values-based work. It’s not about challenging thoughts like in CBT; it’s about noticing and making space for them.

→ Will ACT help me get rid of anxiety or painful thoughts?
The goal of ACT isn’t to eliminate difficult thoughts or emotions, but to change your relationship with them. You’ll learn how to respond to distress in more flexible, values-driven ways to regain control in your life.

→ Is ACT only for certain conditions?
No. ACT is evidence-based for a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, chronic pain, and more.

→ How is ACT different from mindfulness or meditation?
ACT uses mindfulness skills, but within a therapy framework. You will learn to be present, and how to take purposeful action even when things feel hard.
