Recensioner i media

"ACT for Adolescents is a must-read for professionals working with adolescents and their primary caregivers. Turrell and Bell emphasize the acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) view of person-in-environment, linking the interdependence and mutual influence of adolescents in their social and physical environments. This perspective in a helping relationship fosters empowerment, and this book guides a flexible, holistic approach that clinicians working with adolescents will benefit from. Readers will gain novel and practical ACT approaches to working with adolescents." —Timothy Gordon MSW, RSW, social worker; ACT instructor at McMaster University in Hamilton, ON, Canada; and peer-reviewed ACT trainer
