ABSTRACT
Introduction. Parents of children with ASD experience chronic stress, which often turns into anxiety and depressive disorders, as well as somatic dysfunctions. Due to the permanent burden, it is necessary to apply therapy leading to the reduction of disturbing symptoms and the development of effective coping strategies. Few publications yet provide data on the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural therapy applied to parents and caregivers of children with ASD. Aim. The aim of the article is to present Polish research confirming the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioural therapy provided to parents of children with ASD. Materials and methods. The following tools were used in the study: Rosenberg Self- -Esteem Scale – SES and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Results. Based on the analysis of the indicators obtained before and after the intervention in the experimental group and in the control group (not treated), it may be concluded that after the intervention there was a statistically significant reduction in the level of anxiety as a state and an increase in the level of self-esteem. Similar changes were not found in the group not subjected to intervention. Conclusions. The therapeutic intervention undertaken for parents of children with ASD implemented in the cognitive-behavioural approach is an effective method of reducing the level of anxiety and increasing self-esteem.
