Metaphors and exercises play an incredibly important part in the successful delivery of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). These powerful tools go far in helping clients connect with their values and give them the motivation needed to make a real, conscious commitment to change. Unfortunately, many of the metaphors that clinicians use have become stale and ineffective. That’s why you need fresh, new resources for your professional library.
In this breakthrough book, two ACT researchers provide an essential A-Z resource guide that includes tons of new metaphors and experiential exercises to help promote client acceptance, defusion from troubling thoughts, and values-based action. The book also includes scripts tailored to different client populations, and special metaphors and exercises that address unique problems that may sometimes arise in your therapy sessions.Several ACT texts and workbooks have been published for the treatment of a variety of psychological problems. However, no one resource exists where you can find an exhaustive list of metaphors and experiential exercises geared toward the six core elements of ACT. Whether you are treating a client with anxiety, depression, trauma, or an eating disorder, this book will provide you with the skills needed to improve lives, one exercise at a time.
With a special foreword by ACT cofounder Steven C. Hayes, PhD, this book is a must-have for any ACT Practitioner.- File Size: 7172 KB

You've very probably come up with a load of your own metaphors, but this is a great little addition to that.By Mike Pollard
Really great collection of techniques for beginning and intermediate ACT therapists. It's organized neatly to the hexaflex and has some really insightful info about how to conceptualize fit of the techniques to the clients. Dr. Stoddard is thee best professor I've ever had in grad school in terms of actually learning from what she has to teach and how she approaches it. You just learn so much from her lectures and this book really captures that same wealth of information and the style of her teaching that really captures the attention of the learner.By Tswj
