About this course

This three-day workshop introduces participants to Focused Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Participants will learn to use strategies to conceptualize a person’s struggle from an analysis of their approach and avoidance behaviors. They will experiment with the FACT Four Square Tool and explore its use as in conceptualizing and intervening. Participants will also learn several FACT interventions, including “The Quality of Life Matrix” and “Creating: The Web of Life”. Participants will be invited to use several handouts from the FACT Life NOW program, a program designed for health care worker assessment of well-being and cultivation of resilience. Finally, participants will hone their skills for high impact clinical conversations by learning to spend more time in the present moment with those they seek to help.
