Training Title: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): EAP and Beyond
Training Date and Time: February 27, 2026, at 1:00 pm
Length of time: 3 hours
Location: Online webinar
Registration Fee: $80 (MYgroup providers use promo code for a discount)
Training Description: This training provides clinicians with a foundational understanding of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and its six core processes: acceptance, cognitive defusion, present-moment awareness, self as context, values, and committed action as they apply to anxiety, depression, trauma-related symptoms, and relational distress. Participants will explore how ACT both complements and differs from traditional CBT approaches and learn to apply ACT-based strategies to reduce symptoms and enhance psychological flexibility. Emphasis is placed on integrating ACT principles into therapeutic work to support healthier attachment patterns, emotional regulation, boundary-setting, and values-based behaviors within interpersonal and family systems. Through experiential exercises and mindfulness-based techniques, participants will practice ACT interventions that promote present-moment engagement, clarity of values, and meaningful, committed action in clients’ daily lives and relationships. Strategies and interventions will discuss how the use of ACT can be incorporated within EAP and other brief service models
