Inclusion criteria;
(1) You have a child aged 5-18 who has an Intellectual disability and displays behaviors that you perceive as challenging. (2) Due to these above factors there is an impact on your psychological wellbeing (i.e., stress)
Unfortunately you would not be eligible if;
(1) You are in receipt of a current psychological intervention, (2) you are unable to access the study online, (3) you are unable to read or write in English, (4) your child has a learning “difference” such as dyslexia or dyspraxia without an ID diagnosis.
