ACT Competency

“Is ACT an effective treatment?” This is a difficult question to answer because it can be scrutinized at different levels. A growing body of literature suggests that ACT is generally an effective treatment for a wide range of behavioral issues and that it achieves its effects through improving targeted core processes, such as psychological flexibility (Hayes et al., 2006). However, this does not necessarily mean that ACT is effective for each clinical case. Moreover, at a psychological and therapeutic level, the question “Is ACT an effective treatment?” is translated into “Is this collaborative human interaction between these two individuals effective?” The therapeutic competency in the context of a given psychotherapy case is inherently idiographic, and it depends on the client, the clinician, and their intricate interaction (Luoma et al., 2007).
