Focused Acceptance & Commitment Therapy with Dr Strosahl & Dr Robinson

Now more than ever, clinicians are under pressure to optimize client outcomes in as few sessions as possible. Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (FACT) treats every therapy session as if it’s the last, empowering clinicians to maximize the likelihood of meaningful change here and now.

In January 2021, join Dr Kirk Strosahl and Dr Patti Robinson, co-founders of FACT and world-renowned authors, for this applied FACT training. Over the course of four days, this 12-hour workshop delivered via Zoom will provide a brief introduction to the theoretical basis of FACT and hands-on tools for the mastery of foundational FACT skills. Participants will learn to assess, conceptualize, and deliver powerful brief interventions, further learning to shift from traditional diagnostic-based treatment services to FACT. Enhance your clinical toolkit and learn how to effectively optimize your therapeutic approach.
