Reviews

Lisa Schab has a talent for connecting with teenagers, and has proven her expertise yet again. This creative journal is stocked with prompts for teens to identify their anxious thoughts, challenge their unhelpful thinking patterns, and learn new skills for managing anxiety symptoms. While the subtitle suggests this journal is for teens only, I am proof that you can be a thirty-six-year-old adult and find this creative journal both enjoyable and helpful!”

Founded in solid principles of psychotherapy practice, Schab has artfully created a space for teens to use journal prompts that guide them toward self-regulation.
