Pickslyde Consulting
Key Points
- Solid ACT case conceptualization needs to have a perspective of the concerns that lead to inflexibility.
- There are six converse dyads that we should look at:
- Acceptance: Experiential avoidance
- Defusion: Cognitive fusion
- Self as context: Attachment to the conceptualized self.
- Committed action: Persistent inaction, impulsivity or avoidance.
- Values: Unclear values or domination by pliance, tracking and augmenting.
- Contact with the present moment: Dominating concept of the past or the future and weak self-knowledge.
