Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) based program (ReACT) to increase social support, compassion and psychological flexibility on psychological resilience in women undergoing mastectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the ReACT program improve participants' resilience by increasing social support, compassion, and psychological flexibility? Researchers will compare intervention group to control group to see if ReACT program works to improve participants' resilience. Researchers will randomly divide participants into two groups: intervention group and control group. * Participants will complete some questionnaires. * Participants in the intervention group will join a 3-week ACT-based psychological flexibility program. This program consists of sessions that last 90 minutes each. The program adopts the core principles of ACT and aims to help participants develop skills in mindfulness, acceptance, value-driven living, and cognitive defusion. * Participants will complete the same questionnaires again after the program. * Participants will complete the same questionnaires again 1 month after the program ends.
