Review Quotes

"The Worry Workbook for Kids is one of the best anxiety resources I've come across for kids. Perfect for both therapeutic and home settings, this comprehensive and well-organized workbook is packed with age-appropriate, practical, and engaging activities that empower kids to learn about and face their anxieties and worries head-on. The workbook's activities derive from a broad range of therapeutic underpinnings, and this approach is helpful for exposing young readers to a diverse and foundational understanding of mental health coping skills and techniques.

Targeted and suitable for children ages 8 to 12 - although, I found myself benefiting from the information, too - this workbook teaches us we can all face, overcome, and even tolerate our "worry mountain."
