Before we slow down for the holidays and turn the page to a new year, we wanted to take a moment to look back at the chapters we’ve written together during the past 12 months. To each of you who has been part of this journey with us – thank you!

Acceptance in practice 🫶 A kind and understanding attitude toward ourselves in the face of anxiety can reduce self-judgment and increase self-care, leading to better emotional well-being.

Practicing acceptance and allowing these experiences to be present without struggling against them can reduce the negative impact of anxiety and help our clients develop a more compassionate relationship with their internal experiences. 🥰

Skills for working with OCD, social anxiety, panic disorder, GAD, and phobias" https://buff.ly/###cE2m

📣 NOW AVAILABLE AS AN AUDIOBOOK! ✨

"Acceptance and commitment therapy: 100 key points and techniques" Provides a thorough yet succinct exploration of the key elements of ACT’s philosophy, theory, and practical implementation. Now in it’s second edition, this book explains and demonstrates a breadth of acceptance, mindfulness, and behaviour change strategies with the ultimate goal of helping people increase their psychological flexibility and wellbeing.

✨ You are more than your labels!✨ The 'big I' – the global sense of who you are – is just a myth we buy into to simplify the beautiful complexity of being human. Next time that negative voice creeps in, step back and remind yourself: you’re made up of a million little pieces, and no single piece defines you.

❓ Can you distil a therapy type into five sentences? Probably not in a way that really does them justice however you have been telling us that these tables have been useful as a quick comparison tool so here's another one!

While internal family systems (IFS) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) are both forms of psychotherapy and share similarities, they have distinct theoretical frameworks and treatment approaches.

Why does trying to control emotions often make things harder?

Young people may not realise they’re caught in a cycle of suppressing or avoiding emotions, reinforced by cultural messages like “calm down” or “think positive.” These well-meaning ideas can actually increase emotional struggles.

In ACT, we guide kids to step away from these control strategies, helping them accept their feelings and focus on what truly matters.

Learn more about this in our upcoming ACT skills for children & adolescents workshop with Chloe Constable and Victoria Samuel on January 14, 2026.
