It is a user-friendly, flexible, robust, CBT-based 8- or 10-session treatment designed for both group and individual use with children aged 4-12 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis easy-to-follow and comprehensive guidebook contains six treatment modules, an assessment module with useful information on a range of assessments for those practitioners wanting to use pre- or post intervention outcome measures, a background and theory section, and 124 child and parent handouts which may be photocopied. The treatment modules can be used sequentially across eight or ten weeks to provide an individual or group intervention or the modules can be used as stand-alone guides to teach specific skills.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChildren can be provided with a professional and permanent record of therapy via the handouts and worksheets from the guide being purchased separately.

It is an evidence-based intervention combining recent research on threat-based cognitive biases and maladaptive thinking styles in childhood anxiety disorders with the well-established principles of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for easy use by mental health and educational professionals trained in CBT, Take Action allows flexible delivery by practitioners to individuals and groups of children with anxiety. The word ACTION is a coping-oriented acronym used throughout the program. Children are encouraged to take action against their anxiety. This means children approach their fears and worries using strategies learnt during the program. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 236\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.49 x 11 x 8.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 18, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50473701769453,"sku":"9781922117274","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-au\/products\/take-action-practitioner-guidebook-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
