Reviews

""Holland and Hawks are to be commended for this concise and accessible review of a range of empirically supported Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy practices. Especially relevant for the busy school mental health professional, I particularly appreciated its use of a MTSS perspective. Virtually all educators will find something relevant to their practice in this book’s school-wide, classroom, small group, and individual approaches (which include a range of forms and implementation resources)."" Stephen E. Brock, PhD, NCSP, LEP Professor & School Psychology Program Coordinator, California State University, Sacramento ""How do we calm our minds when our thoughts act like tigers? This book is a road map for school-based practitioners interested in integrating mindfulness and ACT practices into their Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS) model. Holland and Hawks have created a practical guide that includes the fundamentals of ACT and mindfulness practices, giving detailed real-world examples and easy-to-use strategies that can be implemented in the school system. This is an extraordinary resource for those in education."" Danielle McIntyre, Ed.S. School Psychologist & RYT200 Yoga Instructor, Santa Rosa County School District ""Given the mental health crisis amongst youth, there is an urgent need to expand school-based mental health services and support. This book provides a practical and comprehensive guide to implement evidence-based interventions to support all students. This book fills a critical need and is a ""must have"" for all teachers and school-based practitioners."" McKenzie Courtney, Ed.S. School Psychologist & Licensed Educational Psychologist, Buckeye Union School District
