Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Substance Use Disorders - 28/07/25
, Katerina Georgiou, MSc, Eleana Lamprou, BARésumé |
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a third wave cognitive-behavioral approach with demonstrated effectiveness in treating substance use disorders (SUDs). ACT aims to improve psychological flexibility via 6 core processes: acceptance, cognitive defusion, present-moment awareness, self-as-context, values, and committed action.

ACT offers a holistic framework for long-term behavior change and overall well-being, fostering psychological resilience and self-awareness to individuals struggling with SUDs.
