Today, children face alarming levels of mental health challenges such as anxiety, depression, stress, and trauma. Fortunately, there are skills they can learn now to gain psychological flexibility, regulate their emotions, and cultivate the resilience they need to face life's challenges.

In the ACT Workbook for Kids, Tamar D. Black offers fun activities based on the proven acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help children manage anxiety, sadness, and anger. The exercises in this workbook are based on the processes of ACT Kidflex - a simplified version of ACT Hexaflex - and help children process the difficult thoughts and feelings that may arise from anxiety, depression, and stress.

The workbook includes many child-friendly worksheets, crosswords and word puzzles, body practices, and arts and crafts that children can do alone or with a parent, counselor, or clinical psychologist. The skills offered will help children balance their emotions at home, in school, and in other social situations, such as parties, hanging out with friends, and extracurricular activities.

In these increasingly demanding times, children and adolescents need more mental health resources than ever before. With more than 1.6 million copies sold worldwide, Instant Help books are easy to use, proven effective, and recommended by therapists.
