Tamar D. Black: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Children and Adolescents
We already know that adult treatment techniques and interventions often don't work well for young clients being treated for mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety. Children need developmentally appropriate therapy plans and tools to help them regulate intense emotions and cope with life's challenges. This practical guide, based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), offers methods that are easy to use in counseling sessions, along with simple skills children can apply in everyday life at home, school, or after-school programs. It presents ACT Kidflex, a child-tailored version of the ACT Hexaflex, a core element of ACT that helps young clients build resilience and psychological flexibility. Detailed case studies, dialogue, activities, experiential exercises, worksheets, and session plans offer resources to help children manage their emotions. Finally, the book introduces strategies for involving parents in therapy at the right time, enlisting them as their child's βACT coach,β and working collaboratively with them. Whether you're an experienced ACT therapist or new to ACT, this guide contains what you need to help children thrive and grow.
