A must-have for any ACT clinician.

This book strikes a balance between being too informal and too bogged down in theory. I've learned so much from reading this and my clients have definitely benefited from my deeper understanding of not just the theory behind ACT but also the core processes. A must-have for any ACT clinician.

Very interesting

It's a very interesting concept to learn about. I really enjoyed the perspective it offered. The book as a whole was great! I received it in great condition and quickly. I would recommend this book for others to read.

Good One

The seminal work on the theoretical links supporting ACT. Studying this along with experiencing the therapy firsthand breathes life into application. The workbook: Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life is very good at fulfilling much of the personal experiential work.

Good Approach

This approach is simple to understand, explain and implement. It empowers the individual to identify what is happening now, compare that to what they want and make a conscious choice for how they wish to proceed. A very effective tool for living a better and more meaningful life. I recommend highly.

Excellent

This book is truly an excellent resource for any mental health practitioner. If this review was helpful please comment or leave feedback. Thank you.

Very Informative Book

This book and the ACT model is transformative. I cannot imagine being a good therapist without it. I highly recommend it!

Good One

This is a good review and makes some tried and true approaches in therapy more acceptable to the contemporary paradigm.

Fabulous

What’s fabulous about this book is that it isn’t just a collection of techniques cobbled together around a loose philosophy.

Well Managed

It is not easy book, reefs like a college-level book, but very informative and worth audiobook.

Very Well

Current and complete theory and practice-- touted as the only book you need and I think that's really true. Look forward to using it with my patients and for my own understanding.
