ACT vs CBT: A Comparison of Approaches

Vannovergate051105 Feb, 2025Other

CBT aims to modify problematic thoughts and behaviours, and focuses on problem-solving and symptom reduction. ACT, on the other hand, aims to change the relationship with internal experiences through acceptance and defusion, and focuses on values and committed action, promoting living well over simply feeling well. While there are key differences, both approaches can be useful for anxiety, and the best choice of approach may depend on the specific needs and preferences of the client.
