The ACT Hexagon: A Model for Increasing Psychological Flexibility (Hexaflex Model)

This video explores Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and its powerful impact on psychological flexibility. It delves into the key components of ACT and their application in clinical practice.


Here are some highlights we’ve extracted from this video:


Acceptance, defusion, self as context, present moment, values, and committed action form the ACT hexagon model. This model, often called the "hexaflex," emphasizes their equal significance in fostering psychological flexibility.


ACT employs a circular model that allows therapists to flexibly address clients' concerns in the present moment. By modeling flexibility and mindfulness, therapists enhance the effectiveness of ACT interventions.


ACT thrives on solid clinical skills, empathy, self-compassion, and an equal collaborative stance, empowering therapists to meet clients where they are.
