Social Work Assignment: Adult Intervention

Social Work Assignment: Adult Intervention

I select the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which is an evidence-based intervention that focuses on improving an individual’s health through increasing their psychological flexibility. According to Anusuya & Gayatridevi (2025), ACT emphasizes on teaching clients or people to accept uncomfortable feelings and thoughts, including how to act based on their personal value, making it suitable for adults. The reason for selecting ACT is because it aligns well with the contemporary social work core values, which emphasizes on focusing on person, self-awareness and psychological flexibility instead of focusing on eliminating symptoms alone. As an emerging approach, it complements more commonly used traditional approaches such as CBT while also providing a different approach that focuses in accepting internal experiences (Anusuya & Gayatridevi, 2025).

ACT may be particularly be useful in adult because according to Brandell (2020), adult client often present with long-term patterns of depression, chronic stress, and avoidance, and the approach can help them in identifying and accepting difficult and unavoidable patterns. Rather than focusing on depression symptoms and situations, ACT can help adults move from avoidant behavior to identifying what matters in their life and take committed action to better life. The approach is effective for adults that are navigating issues such as identity development, life transitions, and mental health concerns.

Although ACT promotes psychological flexibility, its evidence-based, and highly adaptable to various adult populations, it presents some limitations. The intervention requires high self-awareness, and willingness to accept uncomfortable feelings, which may be difficult to some adults with specific health concerns (Anusuya & Gayatridevi, 2025). Some adults, especially those that prefer directive or more structured intervention, may also find ACT concept hard to understand. ACT also requires specialized training and competence for it to effective.
