Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Clifton, NY
Struggling with anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck in life? Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) might be for you. Blue Anchor Psychology offers ACT therapy that’s designed to help you even in the face of life’s challenges.
ACT Therapy Available At Blue Anchor Psychology
ACT isn’t about avoiding discomfort. It’s about learning to face it with mindfulness and grace. You’ll build tools to stop fighting your thoughts and start focusing on your life. It offers a unique and evidence-based approach. Let’s explore how it works and how Blue Anchor Psychology can support you.
At Blue Anchor Psychology, we use ACT to help clients break free from negative thought loops. Our licensed clinicians guide you through six key processes:
-
Cognitive defusion: Learning to see thoughts for what they are.
-
Acceptance: Building the strength to open up to difficult emotions.
-
Mindfulness: Stay present. Learn how to live in the moment, not get stuck in the past or worry about the future.
-
Self-as-context: Understand that you are more than your thoughts and feelings.
-
Values clarification: Discover what matters to you.
-
Committed action: Take meaningful steps toward the life you want.
Therapy sessions are to your pace and comfort level. We offer in-person appointments and telehealth options.
