About Russ Harris, born 1962 in Liverpool:
"Hi, I’m Russ… doctor, therapist, father, trainer of health professionals, and author of The Happiness Trap (plus eight other books).
I started my career as a newly-graduated doctor back in 1989, and soon discovered that most of my patients were expressing a significant degree of dissatisfaction in life; stress, anxiety and unhappiness were widespread. I strongly related to their struggles, because I was experiencing something similar myself."
Russ Harris, född 1962 i Liverpool, är läkare och ACT-terapeut, bosatt i Australien. Han har skrivit ett flertal böcker om act, Acceptance and Comittment Therapy, och arbetar med att utbilda i och föreläsa om metoden.
