More than ever, clinicians need customizable approaches for
treating children with mental health conditions such as anxiety and
depression. Written by an experienced educational psychologist, ACT
for Treating Children offers clear, practical, brief, and
developmentally appropriate strategies grounded in acceptance and
commitment therapy (ACT) to help children ages 5 to 12 learn
effective coping skills, manage emotions, and bounce back from
life's difficulties. A brief 6-10 session protocol. Clear,
practical, and developmentally appropriate strategies to help
children ages 5 to 12 learn effective coping skills, manage
emotions, and bounce back from life's difficulties.If you treat
children struggling with mental health conditions such as
depression or anxiety, you know that approaches designed for adults
do not work with younger clients. ACT for Treating Children
presents skills grounded in evidence-based acceptance and
commitment therapy (ACT) to help children regulate emotions and
cope with the inevitable ups and downs of life, and is suitable for
clinicians with no prior knowledge of or training in ACT, as well
as seasoned ACT clinicians. Written by an experienced educational
and developmental psychologist, this practical clinician's guide
outlines a simplified version of the ACT Hexaflex-a key component
of this treatment model-called the Kidflex, to help young clients
build resilience and psychological flexibility. You'll also find
detailed case studies, transcripts, activities, experiential
exercises, worksheets, and session plans to help you develop the
skillset you need to help children overcome disorders such as
stress, anxiety and depression. Finally, you'll find strategies for
involving parents in treatment when appropriate, and enlisting them
as 'ACT coaches' in the child's therapy.It can be difficult to know
where to start when using ACT for individual therapy with children.
That's why the skills in this go-to guide are practical and
easy-to-implement, can be done with children in both face-to-face
therapy and online sessions, and are simple enough for children to
put into practice in any setting-whether it's at home, in school,
or out in the world.
