Introduction to the Hexaflex Model in ACT
In acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), a key visual tool commonly referred to is the "Hexaflex." This six-sided shape represents the core processes of ACT, all of which interact and overlap with each other. At the center of the hexaflex is a circle representing the self—the person doing the observing and thinking. Each corner of the hexaflex corresponds to a different process, and these processes are not mutually exclusive, meaning they often influence each other.
