Acceptance & Commitment Therapy

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT)

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy encompasses a range of six principles that aim to help clients develop greater psychological flexibility. The six principles include:

1. Cognitive defusion help to reduce tendencies to regard thoughts, memories and emotions as real and concrete events.

2. Acceptance is about allowing the thoughts to surface and pass without the need to allow them to interfere with daily life.

3.  Being present means being aware of current existence and being involved with the now.

4. Self observation helps the client to be aware of the self and the unchanging consciousness.

5. Exploring values to discover those that are most important to the person.

6. Committed action involves setting goals based on the explored values, and setting actions in place to reach those goals.

Acceptance & Commitment Therapy is a form of cognitive behavioural therapy and is commonly used in therapy, and in it's sub-forms and helpful for a range of conditions, including OCD. If you require Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, have a look at the counsellors listed below.

RRT is a short term, pain-free treatment for trauma, but is used to treat many issues.  It is a process that utilizes innovative techniques, components of evidence-based modalities and multi-level communication to re-wire how the mind processes information, without requiring the client to re-live the trauma.  RRT treats the whole mind (conscious and unconscious), so results are not only fast, but lasting. It is best to consult with your RRT practitioner first, to determine if your issue is a good fit for RRT.
