Reviews"Living with anxiety offers you a choice. Will you let anxiety be the boss, pulling your life into smaller and smaller spaces? Or will you take charge, doing what counts even when anxiety shows up? Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Anxiety Relief offers a simple, easy-to-read primer on how to compassionately navigate your anxiety while maintaining your focus on what matters most. I recommend it to anyone curious about the ACT approach to anxiety, whether you struggle with worry and fear or are a professional eager to learn more--or both." --Matthew S. Boone, LCSW, and Coauthor of Stop Avoiding Stuff: 25 Microskills to Face Your Fears and Do It Anyway, "This book is a perfect, succinct, and down-to-earth introduction to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for both individuals struggling with anxiety and therapists learning ACT skills. Each short chapter has a clear focus, with case examples and self-help exercises that bring the concepts to life. The author approaches the material from a personal point of view, through lived experience, devoid of excessive jargon. It's a pragmatic book on how to live life fully, with the inevitable anxiety life brings, while breaking free from the shackles imposed by our easily-programmed minds." --Jacqueline Pistorello, PhD, Director of Counseling Services at University of Nevada, "I love this book! Unlike other psychology or self-help books where I feel like a stuffy professor is telling me what to do, Willimott's voice and personality come through as a wise and compassionate guide. The structure is reader-friendly with manageable chunks of information, personally relevant examples, and helpful guided exercises that are easy to follow and digest. I highly recommend this for folks struggling with anxiety!" --Jill A.
