This review is in regards to a training Jason Luoma, Ph.D. held on Cape Cod entitled "ACT for Shame". Im viewing his training from the lens of an early-career psychologist who is an advanced beginner ACT therapist. I highly recommend this and other high-quality continuing education courses provided by Dr. Luoma. His understanding of ACT and the treatment of high-shame, high-self-criticism is thorough and immediately accessible by participants in his training. At the same time, he succeeds in modeling effective therapeutic behavior in his training style and promotes effective experiential learning through a process of self-exploration exercises, mindfulness activities, and role- and realplays. In particular, I was impressed by his ability to accommodate a wide variety of clinical backgrounds in the training, with only a minority of the participants self-identifying as ACT therapists. He was very appreciative of the level of expertise of the group and clearly put in effort to adapt his material and approach to the needs of the group. I would definitely go to a training of his again.

Comments on Shame, Resilience and Self-Compassion training by Jason Luoma, PhD. Before Dr. Luoma’s class, which was five 3-hour classes for five consecutive months starting in November, 2013, he emailed participants that his goal was to make this “one of the best professional learning experiences” we have ever had. I will say he succeeded. This was not a sit-back and-languidly-listen kind of continuing education experience. Rather, we were active and engaged with homework assignments between workshop sessions, reading articles and doing role-plays to learn skills. We discussed concepts, clinical interventions and watched and discussed videos of clinicians demonstrating the skills we were working on. Dr. Luoma was positive and supportive throughout the course. He gave us constructive and clinically astute suggestions on how to frame interventions when he watched us practice role-plays with other class participants. His expertise was impressive, and he generously shared it with us. I would highly recommend any class that he offers.

Maxine Burton, L.C.S.W.- April 11, 2012 Portland Psychotherapy is a unique and valuable resource in our community as it is staffed by therapists trained in various specialty areas. Drs. LeJeune and Luoma, who started the clinic, are highly respected professionals in the community, known for their extensive knowledge and expertise as therapists, researchers, and trainers. I have referred several of my clients to the PCS and have been most impressed and reassured by the feedback I have received about their experience. I have no hesitation about continuing to refer my clients to Portland Psychotherapy and appreciate the high quality of care that is provided by the professionals in this practice.

Portland Psychotherapy Clinic is an outstanding resource for psychotherapy, professional development, research, and community education. Drs. Jason Luoma and Jenna LeJeune are respected experts in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and dedicated to offering the highest quality services and programs. They have assembled a skilled staff with a range of specialties, and I’m confident that clients I refer to PPC will receive excellent, compassionate care. I participate regularly in professional trainings at PPC, and always come away with solid information and perspective that can be applied in my psychotherapy practice. We are truly fortunate to have this resource in Portland.

Portland Psychotherapy is a unique practice. It not only provides knowledgeable, compassionate and highly effective treatments for their clients, but it is also a place where the therapists are actively involved in cutting edge clinical research to find ever more effective ways to serve their clients to help improve the quality of their lives. I know all of the therapists in this practice through participation in an ongoing peer consultation group for over 2 years, and I can say without hesitation that these are the professionals I would send my family and friends to if they needed help.

Portland Psychotherapy Clinic is special. I have the utmost confidence in each of the clinicians here. They are compassionate, genuine, and have formed a model clinic in the scientist-practioner tradition. They are committed to effectively implementing research-supported treatments and also work to advance the science in our field through psychotherapy research. The clinic enjoys an outstanding reputation among other mental health professionals as a top-notch evidence-based practice. This is a place I would refer a family member or close friend.

This clinic is run by leading experts in the field, using evidence based methods that have been shown to work. If you are facing complex or long-standing problems then this is definitely the place to go. You will receive treatment from experienced, compassionate, well trained therapists who will deliver a high level of care. I have known and worked with Jason for over 6 years and can tell you that he is very committed to helping people develop lives that are fulfilling and satisfying.

Jason Lluoma at Portland Psychotherapy Clinic is a leading research clinician in the development and application of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, a mindfulness-based therapy for treatment of depression, anxiety, mood disorders and trauma. Jason is also passionate about helping his clients live lives with greater satisfaction and sense of fulfillment. I highly recommend Jasons work.

These are very caring, expert and cutting-edge mental health providers. They are truly scientists as well as therapists, and stay up-to-date on the best research available on how to help. They work well with a wide range of people. I have only had good experiences with them and have only heard good things from their clients.

Rosanne Marmor

I completed a two day intro workshop on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Portland Psychotherapy. At then end, I had so much information, new tools and exciting ideas that I could easily incorporate into the therapy practice I have. I am grateful for what I learned and I look forward to more classes from them.

My experiences at Portland Psychotherapy so far have been excellent. I attended a weekend Acceptance and Commitment Therapy training which was top notch. Based on my experiences at Portland Psychotherapy the clinicians there live up to their reputation of being highly skilled therapists, researchers, and trainers.

I had a 1-day ACT training with Steven Hayes back in the beginning of my career, but found this one much more helpful and I have already begun utilizing what I learned over the weekend with my clients today. I would highly recommend this training to both new and seasoned therapists who are interested in ACT.

Doing a workshop with Jason was one of the best trainings I have every taken. He is so informative, but also models what he teaches very nicely. Learning from him therefore is all encompassing and one of the best investments I have made.
