The anxiety survival guide for teens: CBT skills to overcome fear, worry, and panic

For teens, feeling independent is critical for building self-confidence. But for anxious teens, fears, worries, and rumination can stand in the way of achieving the developmental milestones that lead to independence—such as socializing, dating, academic success, or taking on more mature responsibilities. Based in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), The Anxious Teen Survival Guide is an engaging, illustrated resource to help teens skillfully work through situations that cause anxiety so they can focus on their goals. By identifying their "monkey mind"—the part of their brain where anxious thoughts arise—teens will start to feel more independent, more confident, and ready to take on the world.
