    Brief and Comprehensive

    5.0

    When you’re a very busy therapist, you need information that is brief and comprehensive. This course in ACT is definitely going to assist me with current and future clients. I completed the course content (including taking notes) after work in my practice office.

    The presenter knows what he’s talking about and offers lots of key points in the ACT theory and process. Learning additional modalities is difficult at times with lots of options for online CEU, workshops, articles, etc. but this course fulfilled all my requirements with the confidence to utilise this modality for counselling; it’s a robust modality and the theory behind it is well researched.

    I will definitely take further courses by this presenter as he is well educated in Psychology/Counselling and directs his courses towards practitioners. I can’t recommend this course further for all mental health professionals.

    Thank you.
