This workshop on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for professionals working with system-involved clients provides a comprehensive and tailored approach to address the unique challenges and needs of this client population. Participants will gain a deep understanding of ACT’s core principles and learn how to adapt its techniques to navigate systemic constraints and trauma experienced by system-involved clients. The course emphasizes the importance of building strong therapeutic relationships within a systemic context, promoting psychological flexibility, and helping clients identify and pursue values-driven goals despite the challenges they face. Professionals will also receive guidance on self-care and ethical considerations, ensuring that they can effectively support their clients while maintaining their own well-being. The material will be delivered by PowerPoint presentation, short video clips, group discussion, breakout (small group) discussions and participant workbook (handout).
