ACT Workshops for Professionals
The ACT Research Group organizes two workshops a year in Logan, Utah: one in the spring and one in the fall. Spring workshops are topical and may be suitable for beginner, intermediate, and advanced ACT therapists who wish to learn more about a specific content area. Fall workshops are usually an introduction to ACT for clinicians who wish to learn more about the theory and application of ACT.
Drs. Michael Levin and Michael Twohig can also be invited to present workshops at your institution. Please contact michael.levin@usu.edu or michael.twohig@usu.edu for more information.
