1. Welcome!
This is the eleventh posting of the ACT in New England List (if
you missed the previous postings, you can read them
here). This
e-newsletter is typically sent every two months give or take two
months.
The primary
purpose of this list is to inform New Englanders of upcoming ACT
training opportunities in the area. A secondary purpose is to
support the budding ACT community in New England. If you hear
about any ACT training in or around New England, please let me
know so I can get the info up on the site and out to the list
ASAP. If you are having a training of your own, please let me
know and I will help to create a listing for you.
2. ACT
Trainings in New England.
Well, it was a
busy spring and summer for ACT trainings in New England. Thanks
to all of you who attended our trainings. It was nice to meet
you. Elizabeth Kubik and I have one more short introductory
training at the fall conference for the Maine Psychological
Association this November:
Except for the
ABCT conference in NYC (see below), that’s it for 2009.
In January
(2010), we have one workshop listed so far:
Visit the
ACT in New England page for additional information.
Remember, if
you are developing an ACT training or know someone who is,
please contact me to ensure that we announce it to the larger
community. If you see a listing that I do not have posted,
please draw it to my attention and do not assume I know about
it!
3. ACT at
ABCT in NYC.
The annual
conference for the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive
Therapies (ABCT) will be held in New York City this year. Now,
I know you clever types will notice that NYC is, in fact, not in
New England. However, for those of you down south (i.e., Rhode
Island and Connecticut), NYC is a heck of a lot more accessible
than Burlington or Portland. So, I will routinely include
trainings just outside New England for y’all.
There will be
several ACT workshops and trainings at ABCT this year. This is
a great opportunity to participate in ACT trainings and your
best chance until next year's World Conference in Reno. There
are also many other trainings, poster sessions, etc. on CBT,
behavior medicine, health psych, and other areas, all worth
attending. Below, I will only highlight the ACT workshops. See
the
online conference brochure for full details.

Survey on ACT Interests. In order to bring you trainings
that meet your interests and needs, I have thrown together an
online survey. Please take 5 minutes and share some feedback
about the sorts of ACT trainings you would like to attend.
