About the Workshop

Brian Mundy

Some situations are beyond our control. Sometimes, we act as our own worst critic. Old memories and negative emotions can overwhelm and leave us paralyzed. Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) aims to help us overcome those obstacles so that our actions better reflect our values and desires.

Over the course of this full-day workshop, Brian Mundy, LCSW-R (bio) will teach participants about ACT and how to apply it as a tool in their own lives and in the treatment of others. Through the use of present moment awareness, acceptance, and other processes, ACT aims not to reduce our emotional symptoms but to promote greater psychological flexibility in order to help us manage our obstacles.
