Acceptance and Mindfulness treatments for Children and Adolescents - a Practitioner's Guide

• Steven Hayes is one of the founding theorists of ACT • This will be the first book to provide therapists with practical ACT and DBT applications for children and adolescents As acceptance- and mindfulness-based therapies continue to gain momentum and empirical support within mainstream psychology, it is essential to examine the adaptability and effectiveness of these approaches for children and adolescents. This edited book will summarize the diverse ways in which the third-wave therapies have been adapted for young people and their families. In each chapter within the two applied sections, readers will be given practical clinical guidance that will show how to apply these methods.
