Sharpen Your Skills: Intermediate ACT Workshop - June 2026

You've learned about ACT assumptions and processes, and used ACT with clients in your clinical practice. Now it's time to develop your skills further to use ACT with more precision, flexibility and compassion. This two day workshop is available to clinicians who have already completed our 2 day Introduction to ACT workshop (or a 2 day equivalent by another ACT trainer). This workshop is fully catered.
