So insightful!
|
|
59 and my family created the Crazy Train 3 generations back...yup the apple did not fall far from the tree...it did roll down the hill a little. My 1st time therapist suggested ACT.....thank you for your explanation!
|
|
I am a psychology student and currently learn about ACT. Amazing video, thank you! Never stop sharing :)
|
|
Another great video. This is a super-helpful and functional ( ;-) ) summary of ACT, and you clearly explain it. Open - Aware - Engaged with me, rather than my thoughts, feelings, memories, sensations & urges, in the driving seat and in control. Thanks, Tim.
|
|
Nice video! Cheers.. Great for breaking things down.. Do you have further videos on how to do all this.. Thank you..
|
|
This is the first video I’ve seen from you and my name is Tim and when you said my name I got really freaked out lol
|
|
Thank you, Timothy this was really clear and inspiring. Someone mentioned ACT to me yesterday this is a great introduction!
|
|
This is brilliant, Tim. I look forward to learning more from you :)
|
|
Nice video..The only thing is I don't think you put the individual in the driving seat to control your thoughts, emotions and feelings. I think you can be the observer to see them going by and you can try to respond in a different way, but you need to make changes in small steps first and that's gonna take time and energy, 'coz only the insight won't give you enough urge and passion to make concrete differences in behavior :)
|
|
This was really helpful fellow social worker!!! Thank you. Excited to check out more of your content.
|
|
Where my dogs at. Shout out to the cast
|
|
I did a 3 day ACT training with Steven Hayes and still struggle with understanding the frame theory portion and heliflex/matrix (I believe it’s called). It’s a lot of content.
|
|
Ive come here the morning of my second tele-session, I have no idea where the sessions will go. I left the first session feeling like I have a bit of a headache from thinking a lot lol Is that like everyone? I love it that you didnt sing the lamb chop song because it really goes on and on all day for me ha ha ha Thanks for explaining it more for me. I learned psychology 20yrs ago so therapy is not all a new concept to me.
|
|
Sounds awesome! I'd like to study ACT one day.
|
|
ACT changed my life and you easily have the best video about it on youtube. extremely engaging, relatable, and accurate. I can tell you are very good at your job :) Thanks for doing these videos. We need it now more than ever with the current COVID crisis.
|
|
Just came across your video now Timothy, and I must say it is brilliant! A born communicator your explanation is precise, and very pleasant to listen to! Amazing work! Thank you!
|
|
It's a well constructed video for dealing with the complex and variety of mental health issues in a concise and summarized way. This summarized video clip of ACT will help in meaningful reading of the big volumes of the books on ACT by linking the preceding textual explanation with the subsequent / following textual explanation , Otherwise it will become very difficult for an ordinary person to comprehend the concept of ACT. Would like to have more such enlightening videos.Thanks
|
|
what a joy to land on this video today! great !
|
|
Needed a refresher from my therapy sessions! Love it, to the point and thorough!<br><br>Please keep it up, I know I need it :)<br>Much respect
|
|
Great introduction; very accessible
|
|
Is ACT seen as an alternative to CBT?
|
|
Great presentation authentic, clear, logical and heartfelt—just as good as your heroes so keep going and spreading the knowledge that will help people to live more meaningful fulfilling lives full of pain and pleasure. Thank you
|
|
Great video. Really helping!
|
|
1. Thank you, that was great.<br>2. Just thought I'd share that I listened on 2x (as is my wont) so no need to worry about talking too fast :)
|
|
This made me really miss my psychiatrist. I moved and can't afford therapy anymore, but I use this technique that my psychiatrist taught me almost every day of my life. The bus metaphor changed my life.
|
|
Your voice and manner of speaking are very soothing and engaging at the same time.
|
|
It is indeed rare that someone can take a topic as vast and complex as ACT and do a decent job of explaining it in under 15 minutes, without minimizing it to the point of effectively saying "ACT makes you feel better". So, this is a rare video indeed. Very Well Done!

Acknowledging an emotion and deciding what action to take after an emotion arises leaves out a very important factor: why was the emotion had?<br><br>Knowing what something is is insufficient in regards to something as important as understanding who you are. Know thyself. Emotions aren’t just some random thoughts that pop out of the ether. They have a distinct cause as well as a distinct purpose. If you need to fix you car and the only tool you ever seen was a hammer, then the only tool you’ll have to work on your car is a hammer. Worse yet, if you do not take the time to understand why the hammer was invented, you’ll have a tool that you don’t even know how to use.<br><br>Emotions are motion more than a subconscious tool to motivate action. Ignoring that fact creates dysfunction and insufficient diagnosis/treatment. Accepting that “anger is bad” is incorrect. Treatments/training working under that premise is flawed. “What I do because of my anger is bad,” is also insufficient. The value system developed that dictates what is “good or bad” lays in the realm of philosophy as applied to sociology. All things that create pain are not all bad just as all things that create pleasure are not all good. Likewise, “good” emotions are not always “good” for every situation, just as “bad” emotions are not always “bad” for every situation.<br><br>You would probably say that that’s is where “psychological flexibility” comes into play, and you would still be only partially correct. “Psychological flexibility” only addresses how to mitigate actions when emotions are realized. It does not answer whether those emotions are functionally useful for the situation that produced it.<br><br>The brain collect data. It then assigns values to certain things relating to certain states of being. Based on the amount and value of data, a statistical analysis is conducted to determine likely changes in state of being. Because statistical analysis is based on all available information, the strength of negative statistical outcomes is determined by the average value of everything associated with that possible state. In other words, the more you know about something, the weaker emotional response will be. Everything in the neuronal network associated with a certain possible state requires energy. If only a few thoughts are associated with a processed state, then more energy is expended in the emotional centers than the cognitive centers. This is the basis of prejudice. Unfortunately, prejudice has been used in a negative context that it has lost its neutral clinical meaning.<br><br>Prejudice is what kept our ancestors alive when facing snakes before we developed the ability to understand them better. Now that we do not have to immediately jump away from dangers like snakes, our amygdala still has a function. That function is completely distinct from its trigger. Because we have evolved socially much faster than we did genetically/physiologically/neurologically, structures like the amygdala had to be repurposed. So we created concepts like offense, insult, and compliments. The amygdala is triggered by groups of neurons that hold a thought, and it doesn’t matter to the amygdala which groups of neurons provide that electrical action potential. It doesn’t matter to the amygdala that society programs social constructs like offense and insult to trigger anger or pain, it does what it does.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmKEvlv9Cys&t=654">10:54</a> ''Like when I instruct you to pause here for a moment, and notice that you can hear the sound of my voice. You can acknowledge that that sound is there but you are not the sound of my voice. You are separate, you're the observer of that sound, just as you are the observer of your experience.'' Wow this really puts things in perspective. Thank you so much!

Here I am, reasonably well read, with a decent grasp of the English language; yet I’m only understanding about half of what is being said! Is it me or is it that familiar words are being used in ways that are new to me? Anyone else having trouble?
|
|
Hello, sir. I'm a final student of Psychology and now working on a thesis about ACT on imprisoned father. I'm quite upset that I JUST found your youtube chanel cause it's very helping. Would you like to give some comments about my ACT modul? Thankyou so much. I would email you if you will...
|
|
This is really helpful thank you
|
|
Tim, these videos are very good explanations. Thanks.
|
|
Hi Timothy Gordon. Really informative and and well presented video. Is ACT for chronic pain management video something you could do?<br>Thanks!
|
|
Thanks!
|
|
love this!
|
|
Awesome video, straight forward easy to follow and made understanding ACT very easy!!!’
|
|
Hi, Thank you for making this video! I had to read an article on ACT for my MSW program. I did not understand it, but your video helped me understand ACT. Thank you so much!
|
|
Did you say locust of control?
|
|
nice work of copying Indian philosophies and painting it will cool words and yes adding the therapy word.
|
|
I love ACT ,this therapy form has helped me the most
|
|
You did really good job thank you sir
|
|
Thanks for putting this together for me in a video that makes more sense. The papers i've been reading for University on this therapy are very hard to understand.
|
|
Thank you sir and said he was incredibly helpful. I love your voice and my grad school assigned your video to be listened to. So Ball State University use your work as professional and quality.
|
|
Thanks for the great information and breakdown of this technique. Working on my MSW right now and planning on using this one with my clients.
|
|
Great explanation of ACT
|
|
First video I've watched on this therapy. Very easy to follow thanks. I do wonder how an approach like this works with people in constant pain or suffering? What do we do when changing our circumstance or condition is unattainable and the fact of pain is constant? Eg. Laying in a hospital bed with a terminal illness? Thanks for your work.
|
|
very informative
|
|
Love your presentation on this topic
|
|
Great explanation and very helpful. ACT is the first thing that has really helped me regain control over my panic disorder
|
|
That was great. Also fantastic to see a little NLP'ish presentation of ACT materials, which can be helpful in an indirect, direct way. ACT really is a brilliant approach and perfect for coaching.
|
|
Damn good explanation!
|
|
My therapist suggested this as a course of our time together, and asked me to research it as an assignment. This video was a great way for me to understand what it's all about. Thank you.
|
|
This was helpful to me in many ways, thoughtful, articulate, to the point. As you explained ACT it became a pun. Is that intentional? It really is similar to the double counciousness all ACTors must juggle as they navigate and adjust a performance they create yet allow their audience enough influence to create an authentic moment on stage. (As a director and voice teacher I have a quibble. Did you say locus or “locust” of control?)
|
|
I have a little too i love him
|
|
Oh my god- dude. you are SO in my head right now. I seriously needed to find something/someone like you to hear. thank you thank you thank you
|
|
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmKEvlv9Cys&t=242">4:02</a> did this guy just say Locust of control lmao
|
|
So stoked to have found a ACT and RFT channel to point people to!!!
|
|
Thank you Timothy! This was a wonderful video. I am a MSW student and looking forward to using ACT will my clients!
|
|
This is something I've done and practiced for years without knowing it. There's a name for it. Holy crap.
|
|
This is incredible thanks for sharing
|
|
This was such a great explanation of ACT. I have been scouring the internet for info since learning about it and all the written resources I’ve found have been really overwhelming. I’m excited to learn more. How do you recommend learning and practicing ACT as a counselor? I’m an LPC and really connect to this practice. Thank you!
|
|
Thank you! Very helpful! Your examples of RFT are engrained in this brain :)
|
|
I think all your videos are perfect. People who are critical need you as a psychotherapist lol ;)
|
|
Please don't stop making these videos! This was superb. I am studying for a psychotherapy exam and you really made this content come to life. Will definitely be checking out the rest of your channel!
|
|
Keep doing what you are doing. I've just been looking at audiobooks on CBT and come accross the abbreviation ACT which i'm unfamiliar with so decided to look it up and came accross you! Your explanation .... Clear, concise and I get it. Count me as another subscriber. Thanks
|
|
Hi Timothy, <br>A really good and insightful Video thank you for producing. <br>A lot of takeaways from this: 'psychological flexibility, acceptance, commitment etc. Great job! <br>Best wishes, <br>Alex.
|
|

Its not "locust of control". (Please dont say that). Its "locus of control".
|
|

|
|
Great video! I have subscribed to your channel and received your ebook from your website. I look forward to learning more.
|
|
I hate this shit, i once threw a table to a guy and now my school wants to push this crap. Im not crazy, im a normal person. They always want to waste my time. I want to have a normal schoolday, but no. Poor fella needs therapy, im not a poor sensitive bastard.
|
|
This is a great overview on ACT. I'm a licensed social worker who currently works with individuals with substance use and mental health issues and this is a really useful tool to utilize with these clients. Thanks for posting!
|
|
ACT was recently recommended for me and when looking it up for some information I see YOU! I was a client of yours years ago and not gonna lie I got a bit excited to see you offering ACT. You were incredible with me. So compassionate, empathetic and you truly want to help your clients. I felt very comfortable with you and although anxious for our sessions, I always looked forward to them. Thank you for being you. :)
|
|
I have just discovered ACT and wanting to learn way more. I am learning so much from your posts. Please keep sharing. Do you have online training that I can do from Australia?
|
|
Thank you very much would love to learn more about how to implement this in my life
|
|
Fantastic video. You're a great teacher.
|
|
a: your talking speed is literally perfect<br>b. this is the best ACT explanation on youtube
|
|
Knock-out video, TG! Splendid job of explaining ACT, which I am familiar with, and introducing me to relational frame theory, which I didn't know anything about. Or maybe I did - I just didn't have a name for it. I really like the way you deEastify (demystify)
|
|
Awesome video, thank you..I am returning to direct clinical practice with youth after many years as a supervisor. I'm looking for some solid frameworks to use and this is spot-on. might I request a specific video on how to use ACT with children and youth? Much appreciated., GC
|
|
Thank you for this video! It is really helpful and very easy to understand! :D
|
|
Thank-you, Timothy Gordon. I'm a peer support who needed a jump-start on ACT. You gave me an understandable one.
|
|
Love your videos! Easy to understand and we look forward to <b>your</b> upbeat style! I work with Dr. Stotts in Houston at UT Health with clients with substance use disorders in an ACT clinical/therapy trial. I've been asking my clients to subscribe to your channel! I like the short and sweet videos. Easy to digest. Keep them coming!
|
|
thank you . I´m searching for something like that in german language, but i ´cant find anything like your overview. Unfortunately my english is not so good.
|
|
Thank you. You explained it intelligently as well as keeping it conversational and interactive. I learned a lot!
|
|
Thanks, Timothy. This was a helpful overview of the ACT process. Please continue to share your passion for learning with more video installments. Cheers!
