PRAISE FOR THE COPING SKILLS FOR KIDS WORKBOOK:

"I absolutely LOVE the “Coping Skills for Kids Workbook” by Janine Halloran.  It’s an AMAZING resource of over 75 coping strategies for kids to help deal with stress, anxiety, and anger.  It’s organized wonderfully by four categories - calming coping skills, distracting coping skills, physical coping skills, and process coping skills - with an extremely helpful checklist handout to work on with kids.  With all of these strategies in one place it will definitely be my “go-to” book for a long time in my work as a child psychologist and play therapist."

A teen version of the Coping Skills for Kids Workbook, this version is written specifically with a tween/teen audience (age 11+) in mind. There are 60 coping strategies included in the book, and it's divided into Coping Styles to make searching for a coping skill easier.

From my favorite go-to expert on coping skills, Janine Halloran does not disappoint with her latest book! I love her simple, yet comprehensive way of explaining anxiety to teens.
