If I was going to spend longer on this post, I’d make it more empirical and talk through evidence for/against the effectiveness of ACT.
As it is, I didn’t want to spend significantly longer writing it, so I’ve gone for a summary of the core ideas—so that readers can assess the vibe and see if it’s something that sounds interesting to them.
This might have been the wrong call though.
(Also from the EA Forum. Someone on the forum commented that they thought ACT is one of the more evidence based psychotherapies).
