Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists in Lumsden, SK
In this space, mistakes are expected, met with curiosity rather than judgment, and are part of learning and growth. Because let's be real, the current climate of the 21st century is complex, ever-changing, anxiety-ridden, and honestly… chaotic. To survive, counsellors need a place where they can be themselves, feel confident, reflect, and feel supported in their emotionally demanding role as a professional. The purpose of supervision is to gain confidence and competency in your practice. I primarily work with Social Workers and Canadian Certified Counsellors (CCC’s) in private practice settings.

I also work with students of all ages (kindergarten to post-secondary students). School can be a tough time. Many students struggle with socializing, loneliness, stress, self regulation, disorganization, and lack of routine and habits.

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.
