Trauma-Focused ACT: A Practitioner's Guide to Working with Mind, Body, and Emotion Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) has been an incredible source of inspiration and solace in my professional and personal life. This approach weaves together mindfulness, humour, self-compassion, acceptance, and experiential learning into a rich tapestry that can be tailored to each person's unique circumstances. ACT acknowledges life's inherent pain and emphasizes the discovery of meaning amid suffering: ultimately, pain is the price we pay for caring about our existence.

I hope this book will help others in the MacEwan community as they compassionately support their clients (and themselves) with navigating life's painful chapters, rediscovering meaningful values, and building lives worth living.
