From an acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) perspective, being “stuck” often involves fusion with difficult thoughts and emotions or a lack of clarity about values, making it hard for adolescents to take committed action towards what truly matters to them. https://buff.ly/ulKXOLn

Helping adolescents who are stuck involves supporting them to develop psychological flexibility and ACT might help them notice and defuse from unhelpful thoughts, open up to difficult emotions, or reconnect with their values so they can take meaningful action despite the challenges they face.

We have a number of live and on-demand training opportunities to help people who work with young people including a 3-hour workshop next week for ACT skills for Children and Adolescents. Find out more on our website: https://buff.ly/F7svpiL

Adjustment to a chronic health condition doesn’t begin at diagnosis, it’s a journey that often starts long before. As practitioners, we’re not setting clients on their path; we’re joining them where they already are.

ACT offers tools to help clients reconnect with their values and navigate the uncertainty ahead. Let’s pause, acknowledge their journey so far, and guide them toward what matters.

📅 Upcoming workshop: "Using ACT to support adjustment to chronic health conditions"
🗓️ 28th Jan 2026 | Recording available for 6 months if purchased before the event. Earn 2 CE credits

🚨 DID YOU KNOW? 1 in 5 workers (21%) need to take time off work due to poor mental health caused by pressure or stress*, so it’s never been more important for workplaces to equip staff and their teams with practical tools to handle stress and adapt to challenges.

Acceptance and commitment training (ACT) in the workplace is exactly that, a psychological approach designed to enhance employee welfare, resilience, and performance. Unlike traditional approaches that focus on eliminating negative thoughts or emotions, ACT helps individuals accept them as part of the human experience while committing to actions aligned with their personal values.

We're proud to be hosting Ross McIntosh this year for a workplace series that will teach you actionable strategies and frameworks to improve workplace well-being, communication, and performance. https://buff.ly/LaZm8Zs

Life is a hike, and we all carry backpacks filled with painful memories, fears, and worries. The instinct to fight against the weight can leave us stuck. But ACT provides practical tools to help clients move forward with clarity and purpose:

✔️ Values clarification helps clients identify what truly matters and choose a meaningful direction, even when the road feels heavy
✔️ Present-moment awareness anchors clients in the here and now, reducing the grip of fear or worry about the future
✔️ Self-as-context exercises allow clients to see themselves beyond their pain, creating space for growth

ACT empowers clients to stop struggling against the weight and walk with it, guided by their values.

At its core, ACT is about supporting individuals in developing the skills to mindfully step out of autopilot, create space from their thoughts and emotions, and consciously reflect on what truly matters in that moment. It then encourages them to take meaningful steps towards living in alignment with those values.

Working with children's emotions? Name it to tame it! https://buff.ly/KSyJTYh

By recognising and naming emotions, individuals create a sense of distance from the feeling, which allows them to approach it with curiosity and openness, rather than being consumed by it.

In ACT, this exercise aligns well with the approach of encouraging mindfulness and psychological flexibility. It encourages practitioners to guide clients to observe their inner experiences without judgement, helping them to unhook from distressing thoughts and feelings. It’s a practical and accessible tool that can be used in therapy sessions to support emotional awareness and management.
