Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Training: A 1-Day Fundamentals Course for Trauma Clinicians

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Training: A 1-Day Fundamentals Course for Trauma Clinicians

 What You Will Walk Away With:

Join Jennifer Caspari, PhD for a one-day live training on the fundamentals of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, one of the most extensively researched and clinically flexible psychotherapies available to trauma clinicians today.

Your clients carry more than trauma symptoms. They carry the avoidance, the rumination, the harsh inner narration, and the slow disconnection from what matters. ACT gives you a process-based, evidence-based framework for working with all of it, alongside the trauma work you are already doing.

By the end of this training, you will be able to:

  • Define ACT and explain psychological flexibility, experiential avoidance, and cognitive fusion in plain clinical language.
  • Apply the six core processes of ACT including acceptance, defusion, contact with the present moment, self-as-context, values, and committed action.
  • Select ACT interventions that fit the client in front of you, including metaphors, defusion exercises, mindfulness skills, and values clarification practices.
  • Recognize psychological inflexibility as it shows up in session and identify which core process to bring into the room.
  • Use acceptance and willingness as the foundation of change, with clinical skills like the Three As, the E.A.S.E. expansion practice, and the Tug of War metaphor.
  • Help clients clarify values and translate them into committed action, even when distress, doubt, and old patterns are present.

Integrate ACT with trauma work, including stabilization, exposure, and supporting clients whose suffering does not fully resolve through trauma processing alone.
