Course Overview
Psychological flexibility, mindfulness- based therapy, Behavioral therapy, Cognitive therapy
According to the association for contextual behavioral science, acceptance and commitment therapy is " a unique empirical based psychological intervention that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, together with commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility". Acceptance and commitment therapy ( ACT) encourages people to embrace their thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them.
It may seem confusing at first, but acceptance and commitment therapy paired with mindfulness- based therapy offers clinical effective treatment. After all running away from any problem only increases the distance from the solution. The easiest way to escape from the problem is to solve it. Medical conditions such as anxiety, depression, addiction, and substance abuse can all benefit from acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness based cognitive therapy.
Acceptance and commitment therapy develops psychological flexibility and a form of behavior therapy that combine mindfulness skills with the practice of self-acceptance. When aiming to be more accepting of your thoughts and feelings, commitment plays a key role. In the case of acceptance and commitment therapy you commit to face the problem head -on rather than avoiding your stresses. Imaging committing to actions that help you facilitate your experience and embrace any challenges. ACT is effective for a wide range of psychological disorders, and it is also effective as a life-affirming and inspirational perspective of self- determination. Measuring life coach training performance involves evaluating both the effectiveness of the training program itself and the competence of the coach-in-training. Key methods include assessing skill acquisition through observation, tracking client goal achievement gathering feedback and utilizing self-reflection tools.

All therapies need to be treated by therapist who understand the pain or the challenges that their clients are going through, because therapist attitude and behavior to clients is a very big contributing factor in the healing process.
