Your Contributions Matter to Our Collective Community
MAC is a growing community of people – mental and behavioral health therapists, researchers, educators, coaches, healthcare professionals, etc. – who share a common interest in the work that is going on in contextual behavioral sciences including, but not limited to, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Relational Frame Theory (RFT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Functional Analytic Therapy (FAP), and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT).
Our overriding mission is to foster the development of contextual behavioral practice, science, and community service within the Mid-Atlantic region (i.e., MD, DC, VA, WV, DE, NC and SC). To that end, we conduct regular clinical trainings, and we’ve facilitated the development of several peer consultation groups in the region. We’re also working to increase member networking and referrals via our member forum. Our aim is to build and support a community among MAC and all ACBS members.
