Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- ACT Background and Training
I spent 11 years pre and post doc at the University of Nevada, Reno. Steve Hayes was my mentor. I wrote the original ACT grants with Steve, including 4 years of rejections, until our first grant was funded in 1993. I am co-author of the original ACT book and of early articles on ACT and RFT. I am also co-author of numerous subsequent articles, chapters and books on ACT, RFT, and their theoretical and philosophical bases.
- ACT Experience
I have been using and developing ACT since 1989. (Well, technically since 1991, the year we changed the name--Comprehensive Distancing before that;-)
- Specialties
Treatment development; training and supervision; professional development; substance abuse; academic risk; novel applications of ACT and RFT; general clinical applications
- Types of Clients
I am open to the treatment of any and all--though I have a special fondness for hard cases.
