The Hexaflex model is a guide in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) that breaks down complex feelings and experiences into six interconnected steps. Each step offers a way to handle tough emotions, thoughts, and situations:
Acceptance: This step is about letting in difficult feelings without letting them take over, helping people understand that discomfort can be part of life without controlling our actions.
Cognitive Defusion: Here, people learn to separate themselves from troubling thoughts by noticing them without being overwhelmed, which helps to reduce their power over behavior.
Contact with the Present Moment: This means focusing on what’s happening right now, paying attention to the present rather than worrying about the past or future, which builds a foundation for other exercises in ACT.
Self-as-Context: This is about connecting with a part of ourselves that can observe our thoughts and feelings without judgment, helping people see beyond self-limiting beliefs.
Values: This step helps people define what truly matters to them, giving a sense of purpose and direction in life to guide decisions.
Committed Action: Here, people start taking steps toward goals that align with their values, even if it feels hard, focusing on progress rather than perfection.
By working through these steps, people gain flexibility to face challenges in a way that aligns with their values, building a life that feels fulfilling and authentic.

Congratulations to everyone who's secured a place on the Clinical Psychology Doctorate!
🎉 Here are five quick tips as you start:
Preparing takes time—your hobbies might have got sidelined, but they're great for stress management. Maintain them during training.
For most, you’ve got up to 5 years to finish, not just 3. This is handy if life throws unexpected events your way.
Supervisors are human too—it’s okay to challenge their ideas respectfully.
Let go of being perfect; with so much going on, it’s about prioritising what’s most important.
Make supervision count by asking specific questions and being open to feedback.
If you’re looking for some flexible, paid leadership experience while you study, drop us a message!📩
Let’s make a positive impact together!
