Abstract	Introduction: Children's and adolescents' behavioral problems are one of the main concerns in today's society families. Confronted with these problems, there are families that can very well cope with them and get ahead, whereas other families are overwhelmed without knowing how to act. This difference may be related the non appropriate use of emotional self-regulation strategies or confrontation strategies and also low levels of resilience. Method: In order to overcome such issues, we designed a program aiming to improve families' capabilities to deal with the mentioned behavioral problems, as well as confrontation strategies and parents' levels of emotional regulation (we used cognitive behavioral techniques as well as techniques of acceptance and commitment). Results: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of this program. Sixty-one parents took part in our study, forty-one in the experimental group and twenty in the control group. To determine our program effectiveness, we evaluate changes: (1) concerning parents: knowledge of strategies to cope with problems, perceived family climate, and levels of resilience, anxiety/stress and depression; and (2) concerning children: perceived family climate. Discussion or Conclusion: Results suggest that our intervention produced a significant reduction in the levels of anxiety, depression as well as an improvement in the perceived family climate.
