challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, and trauma. The

psychological flexibility, regulate emotions, and cultivate the
resilience needed to navigate life's many storms. This timely and
much-needed workbook can help. In The ACT Workbook for Kids, Tamar
D. Black offers fun activities grounded in evidence-based
acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help kids deal with

Hexaflex-and help kids work through the difficult thoughts and
feelings that can arise from anxiety, depression, and stress. The

and word search puzzles, body-based practices, and arts and crafts

clinician. Most importantly, the skills in this workbook will help
kids balance their emotions at home, at school, and in other social
situations-such as going to parties, being with friends, and
extracurricular activities. No matter what the situation, children
can use these quick and simple strategies whenever they feel
worried, sad, angry, stressed, or are struggling with self-esteem.

clinicians with no prior knowledge of or training in ACT, as well

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.
