Founding Fellow
Academy of Cognitive Therapy
In 1996, leading experts in the field of cognitive therapy founded the Academy of Cognitive Therapy (ACT). ACT works to support professionals, educate consumers and connect individuals with truly effective care. In 1967, Dr. Aaron T. Beck, a psychiatrist, developed cognitive therapy and he is the Honorary President of the Academy. Since then, cognitive therapy has been proven through more than 400 clinical outcome studies to be highly effective for the treatment of many mental health problems including depression, general anxiety disorders, panic, anger and marital distress.
