暫譯: 接受與承諾療法：支持父母的臨床指南

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: The Clinician's 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.

• Covers the full spectrum of child development from infancy to adolescence
• Touches upon diverse clinical presentations including: child anxiety, neurodevelopmental disorders, and child disruptive behavior problems, with special emphasis on infant sleep
• Addresses how best to support parents with mental health concerns, such as postnatal depression
• Is relevant for both novices and clinicians, students in psychology, social work and educational professionals supporting parents
