ACT for psychosis: Building connection and reducing isolation – Eric Morris

Psychosis can often feel isolating, leaving individuals disconnected and consumed by their own minds. In this video, Clinical Psychologist, Associate Professor and ACT trainer Eric Morris, discusses how acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) can help reduce isolation and build meaningful connections. This clip covers the importance of making minds visible, nurturing shared humanity, and introduces ACT principles like the ‘two mountains of life’ metaphor to empower clients.

This video is taken from our ‘Expert tips for ACT’ playlist on YouTube:
