What ACT Leaders Say About Louise Hayes' Training
“DNA-V is one of the most important innovations in ACT in the last several years and is arguably THE most important in work with adolescents. Louise Hayes is a master of that model and there is no one on the planet who is better at explaining it, and teaching and modelling the skills needed to use it. Louise is a worldwide treasure. I can highly recommend her training and if you attend one of them I predict you will soon feel the same way.”

DNA-V: The developmental framework for ACT across the lifespan
Louise has been involved with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for 20 years. In 2015, Louise and co-author Joseph Ciarrochi developed DNA-V – a framework that focuses on growth and development in adolescents and adults.
