Willing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (WACT) is a mindfulness-associated psychotherapy with Chinese characteristics that is proposed by Professor Yunlong Deng based on his practice of psychotherapy in combination of the research findings in the field of psychology such as evolution, development and cognition, and the elements of traditional Chinese culture such as Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. WACT holds that suffering is the memory of the brain while truth and harmony are the essence of health; they can effectively alleviate suffering and promote health. The distinctive feature of the therapy takes roots in the Chinese culture and modern science. It is expected that further clinical practice and application will prove that WACT has a broader spectrum of psychological disorder treatment effect and better local cultural adaptation.
