Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

 

What is ACT Therapy?

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a modern, evidence-based approach that helps individuals handle difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful steps toward the life they want. At Hampstead Psychology, we offer ACT in London as part of our commitment to high-quality, personalised psychological care for professionals.

 

How ACT Works

Unlike therapies that aim to eliminate distressing thoughts, ACT teaches you to accept what’s outside of your control while focusing on what you can influence—your actions and values. Through ACT, you learn to respond to challenges with more psychological flexibility, rather than getting stuck in cycles of avoidance, overthinking, or self-judgement.

 

What ACT Can Help With

ACT is especially helpful for professionals and individuals dealing with:

  • Anxiety and persistent worry

  • Depression and low motivation

  • Stress and burnout

  • Chronic pain and long-term health conditions

  • OCD, PTSD, and trauma

  • Emotional avoidance or self-critical thinking
