Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Summary

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: The Clinician's Guide for Supporting Parents by Koa Whittingham (Senior Research Fellow, Queensland Cerebral Palsy and Rehabilitation Research Centre, The University of Queensland, AustraliabrHonorary Research Fellow, School of Psychology, The University of Queensland, Australia)

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: The Clinicians Guide for Supporting Parents constitutes a principles-based guide for clinicians to support parents across various stages of child and adolescent development. It uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as an axis to integrate evolution science, behaviour analysis, attachment theory, emotion-focused and compassion-focused therapies into a cohesive framework. From this integrated framework, the authors explore practice through presenting specific techniques, experiential exercises, and clinical case studies.
