Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
for Panic Attacks
ACT helps people reduce struggle with anxiety symptoms by increasing psychological flexibility and acceptance, reducing the secondary suffering caused by fighting the fear.
How it works
Targets experiential avoidance — the tendency to suppress or escape internal experiences — which maintains panic. ACT promotes willingness to experience discomfort while pursuing meaningful activities.
What to watch for
Particularly suited to people who have tried traditional CBT with limited success, or whose panic is entangled with avoidance of valued life activities.
