CLINICAL APPROACH
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you accept your thoughts and feelings rather than fighting them or feeling guilty for having them. It helps you commit to actions that align with your personal values, building psychological flexibility so difficult thoughts have less power to steer your choices.

WHAT IT TREATS / WHO IT'S FOR
ACT is used for anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and stress, and can help if you tend to get stuck fighting your own thoughts rather than moving forward with your life. It's available virtually across Canada through Shift Collab.
ACT is designated by APA Division 12 as having strong research support for anxiety, depression, and chronic pain.
