Acceptance- Based Behavior Therapies (ABBTs) is a new branch of psychological therapy that used Mindfulness-based therapy principles and techniques. Acceptance-based therapies came to be based on the assumption that psychopathology were trying to control or avoid negative thoughts and emotions. These therapies are believed people with mental impairment have been critical of these treatments on their emotions and they are judged based on their emotions. So try to avoid from these emotions and do actions to reduce their emotions or escape from them. Avoidance in the three levels of emotional, cognitive and behavioral may play an important role in continuing the psychopathology. ABBTs aim to alter individuals’ relationships with their internal experiences, reduce rigid experiential avoidance and increase action in valued directions.
