Acceptance & Commitment Therapy: Embracing Change with Ian Zettervall

All behavior is understood if you put on a lens. We have to see behavior in this context, and all behavior serves a function, and that's how, as an act practitioner, you're observing a person's behavior.
Ever wondered how therapy can help you embrace life's ups and downs? In this episode of 'Scope of Practice', clinician Ian Zettervall breaks down Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and its transformative power in addiction recovery. Ian dives into the history and six core processes of ACT, shedding light on how this therapy helps individuals adapt to life's challenges without judgment.
He explains the crucial role of psychological flexibility, emphasizing how a rigid mindset can make us more vulnerable to setbacks. Through engaging stories and practical advice, Ian illustrates how changing our language about thoughts and feelings can lead to meaningful behavior changes. This episode is packed with insights for both those in recovery and clinicians looking to incorporate ACT into their practice. Tune in for a fresh perspective on how acceptance and positive change can go hand in hand.
