ACT in early childhood (4-11 years)

September 10 - 13:30 to 17:00
£180.00

Cost + VAT

This workshop introduces the use of ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) to help young children aged 4–11 years and their parents navigate psychological and behavioural difficulties.

It introduces the DNA-V model (Hayes & Ciarrochi, 2015), a developmental framework for ACT to share practical and engaging ways to encourage curiosity, mindfulness, and values-based action for both children and their parents.

This course was created for psychologists, therapists, and other mental health professionals who work with children and families. It is particularly suited for anyone looking to expand their toolkit for addressing psychological and behavioural challenges in early childhood, as well as those interested in process-based, developmentally informed interventions.

No prior experience with ACT is required but familiarity with behavioural or contextual therapies will be beneficial.

Thursday 10th Sep 2026: 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM

Session 2:
Thursday 17th Sep 2026: 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM
