How to apply ACT when working with parents and children?

BUILD COLLABORATION AND USE THE 6-STEP MATRIX IN THE THERAPY ROOM

Children often end up in the therapy room because caregivers or the system force them to, while parents arrive carrying guilt, frequently expecting the specialist to simply "fix" their child. In this training you'll learn how to break out of that deadlock and build trust from the very first minutes of the session. You'll understand how fundamentally important it is to genuinely validate the difficult experiences of both sides, and you'll learn how to create a space in which the client learns to make meaningful choices.

The training is built on the 6-step ACT matrix model, focusing on refining parenting practices without blame or finger-pointing. You'll gain the know-how to effectively help parents move from the exhausting role of a controlling "manager" into the role of a wise and supportive "consultant" for their child.

During the course you’ll receive practical tools tailored to patients at different developmental stages, including children under 12, teenagers, and people on the autism spectrum. You’ll understand how to formulate measurable behavioral goals using the imagined „video camera” metaphor, which greatly helps families communicate clearly. You’ll also learn how to teach psychological flexibility using the visual matrix tool, and how to recognize so-called „stuck loops.” The training will also let you learn and put into practice the power of potent metaphors. You’ll learn to use the „hook” metaphor to identify the triggers behind problematic behaviors, as well as the „frightened kitten” metaphor, which is remarkably effective in coping with a child’s difficult emotions. You’ll acquire valuable „verbal aikido” skills that teach you to follow and harness the client’s energy instead of pointlessly fighting against it. Instead of giving parents vague advice, you’ll learn to implement a system of small steps and effective emotion-coaching techniques, which translates into long-term improvement in the relationships within the families you work with.

For who?

Who is this training for?

Psychologists and therapists working with the family system

You're looking for effective tools to work with children and their frustrated caregivers, who often simply expect the child to be "fixed." You want to learn how to bring the innovative 6-step ACT matrix into your clinical practice. You'll discover methods that let you smoothly guide parents out of the exhausting role of a controlling "manager" into the role of a supportive "consultant," which genuinely improves the dynamics in their homes.

Specialists working with neuroatypicality and difficult emotions

In your practice you meet young clients struggling with intense "volcanic eruptions" of emotion, and you work with children on the autism spectrum. You care about accurately identifying needs and understanding the chaos they experience. You'll gain the know-how to adapt your interventions so you can effectively support a child's self-regulation and coping with anxiety, and how to draw on their natural passions to build engagement.

Practitioners who want to build engagement effectively and overcome resistance

You sometimes work with patients (teenagers or adults) who show up in the room under compulsion and are unwilling to cooperate. You're looking for proven ways to deal with this resistance. You'll learn how to use radical validation of the client's experience to build trust, and how to apply supportive presence ("time in") to successfully accompany the client through their hardest moments.

Foundation of the training: Practical strategies grounded in compassion and the 6-step ACT matrix

Led by Ben Schoendorff, an experienced clinician and founder of an institute of compassion-based psychology, the training focuses on refining skills step by step. Instead of theoretical lectures, you'll receive a ready-to-use action map built on three main pillars: deep validation (emotion coaching), precise analysis of observable behavior (the "video camera"), and refining therapeutic language based on Relational Frame Theory. It's a powerful dose of practical knowledge that will make your work easier both with little ones under 12 and with maturing teenagers.

You'll discover...

  • The imagined "video camera" method, which will help you collaborate with parents in precisely defining observable behavioral goals.
  • A powerful five-stage emotion-coaching model that makes it easier to handle challenging behaviors in children and teenagers.
  • A refreshing perspective on neuroatypicality (including the autism spectrum) through the "electric car" metaphor, which lifts the burden of stigma off patients.
