Guest guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 HI! I had posted many months ago wondering if there is ACT information availble for kids. At the time I heard it was being worked on and I was hoping someone might be able to tell me if it is now available. My daughter has been seeing a therapist but they are working on the cognitive which I believe can be helpful but as we all know there is so much more. Like me, she doesn't like to " feel " the anxious feelings and it seems like the cognitive work is making some of this worse. And now her anxious situations are just continuing to multiply! I could use some help and was hoping someone out there might put me in the right direction! Or if there is any advice you can offer if you have helped your own kids. Thanks!
