ACT for Children with Autism and Emotional Challenges

by Mark R. Dixon

Many disabilities are a puzzle, and we all seek a road to better understanding how to help those in need. But what if we put down the puzzle piece and just stopped for a moment to love our child for exactly who they were? What if we stopped chasing a constructed future full of IFs and instead enjoyed today for what it IS? Mark Dixon takes the reader on a journey into the fascinating world of Acceptance and Commitment and how to apply it to persons with a wide variety of social and emotional disabilities. The book comes alive with 180 days worth of therapeutic exercises crafted for kids to awaken their greatest potential. This book has been field tested on hundreds of children over many years, and as a result lives have been changed.
