My work in the youth sector showed me how powerful healthy relationships are for children and families. After 23 years of marriage, I’ve lived through some of the same challenges many couples face. By choosing to be honest and curious and leaning into these practices, couples can shift from conflict to understanding, from distance to closeness. When we meet those moments with authenticity and a willingness to reconnect, relationships can grow in ways that ripple outward.

Many people find relationships difficult. That's understandable since culturally, we are rarely taught how to handle conflict in a generous and loving way. However, conflict is not always a bad thing, and if we can learn to listen and speak with love, conflict can actually become a mechanism to create greater intimacy, trust and connection.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.
What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.
Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.
How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
