    Feasibility of group-based acceptance & commitment therapy for adolescents (AHEAD) w/multiple functional somatic syndromes, 2020,Hansen Kallesøe et al

    Sadly ACT is the new buzzword. Add to ACES and adolescence has got even less going for it. There never seems to be understanding of asymmetrical power balances / influence of peers/ impact of being held responsible for your illness. Coming to a therapist near you.
