This episode features Drs. Robyn Walser and Darrah Westrup discussing the application of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for trauma, highlighting approaches from their book, You Are Not Your Trauma: An ACT Guide to Healing from Within. Through an exploration of ACT’s core processes—including psychological flexibility, self-as-context, and committed action—the conversation provides advanced practitioners with evidence-based strategies for supporting trauma survivors beyond symptom reduction. Walser and Westrup address differentiating trauma from general distress, navigating the sequencing of safety, exposure, and reconnection, and deploying practical defusion techniques. The presenters emphasize actionable, compassion-driven skills for fostering client autonomy, meaning-making, and long-term healing. The content equips clinicians with concrete tools to deepen client engagement, tailor interventions for complex trauma, and reinforce lifelong practices of resilience within and beyond the therapy setting.
