Association for Contextual Behavioral Science

Tom Lavin, MFT LADC has hosted the Reno, NV local television show New Skills for Living, a health and wellness series, since 1995 in an effort to help people learn about skills and new ways to improve their lives.

In 2009 the show was dedicated to addressing the ACT approach to many common problems (ex: nutrition, fitness, obesity, diabetes management, coping with trauma, substance abuse, and quitting smoking) and enhancing well-being (ex: enhancing intimacy in romantic relationships, effective parenting, living a vital life in today's complicated world, and cultivating mindfulness).

You can see ACT experts discuss how ACT principles can be applied to so many aspects of your life!
