The goal of this clinical trial is to test the feasibility and acceptability of the Bright IDEAS problem-solving skills training (PSST) intervention for parents of children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The main question aims to answer:

• Determine the feasibility and acceptability of a multimodal PSST intervention for English and Spanish-speaking parents of children and adolescents undergoing autologous and allogeneic HSCT using a randomized controlled trial design and mixed methods approach to evaluation
• To evaluate the effectiveness of a PSST intervention on PSS acquisition and psychological distress compared to a control group of parents receiving non-directive psychosocial care (n=25).
• To explore the effect of the parent PSST on child quality of life (QoL) and self-reported symptoms, mediated by parent psychological distress

If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare PSST intervention usual or standard psychosocial care.

Participants will complete 6-8 sessions of intervention. All participants will complete surveys.
