"And I Can Remind Myself That I Am All Of This": adolescents' experiences of group-based acceptance and commitment therapy.

Introduction: A growing body of literature supports the use of Acceptance-and commitment therapy (ACT) for a wide range of mental health problems in children and adolescents, but less is known about ACT when given to adolescents in a group format. Consequently, this study aimed to explore the subjective experiences of adolescents who had completed a group-based ACT for symptoms of anxiety and depression. Adolescents' perceptions of the core therapeutic processes of ACT and the means used to enhance them, as well as the interplay between ACT processes and the group format, were of primary interest.
