ACT in social anxiety groupsetting

[Guest guest]

Hello!

About likewise the previous writer, i've struggled with social

anxiety disorder and depression for nearly 20 years.

I have tried dynamic therapy, ct, cbt, and more. Both in individual

therapy, grouptreatment, and as selfhelp. With some temporary

improvements in my feelings and behaviors, still living far from how

i want to live.

Now im trying to self help with ACT, using ACT-books and act-

friendly spiritual teachings. To me, ACT makes lot of sense both in

theory and by experience. Great job.

I have read " Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: An Experiential

Approach To Behavior Change " , " A Practical Guide To Acceptance And

Commitment Therapy " , and awaiting " ACT For Anxiety Disorders "

and " Get Out Of Your Mind & Into Your Life " .

I will try to start up a ACT group exposure training with my social

phobic acquaintances. So im wondering, if there is a protocol

available on ACT grouptreatment for social anxiety disorder? or

maybe you could give some advise on how me and my acquaintances

could carry out the grouptraining?

Regards,

Anton
