132: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for Anxiety With Tom Parkes

Tom Parkes is a psychotherapist and trainer who is passionate about Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)!

ACT Therapy is type of mindful psychotherapy that blends mindfulness strategies with behavioral techniques to help individuals live more meaningful lives.

As someone who struggled with anxiety and agoraphobia for over a decade, the principles of ACT resonated deeply with me, and mirrored much of my own therapy journey when I was working to recover.

Together we discussed:

  • What is ACT Therapy?
  • The difference between CBT and ACT Therapy
  • Exposure therapy
  • What values driven action looks like in anxiety recovery

...and lots more! Tune into the full episode to hear Tom share lots more insights which I hope will support you on your journey.
