Synopsis

Let’s THINK About Feelings provides child-friendly tools for therapists who use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). It is expected that therapists using this resource already have a sound theoretical understanding of CBT and a repertoire of CBT interventions that they use with clients. Let's THINK About Feelings supplements those interventions, by providing activities and visual tools that make the principles of CBT more accessible for young people. Part 1 includes tools to help children differentiate emotions and identify stressors. Part 2 includes tools to help children regulate emotions and behavior, focusing on response inhibition, cognitive flexibility, self-calming and self-monitoring, and problem solving. Contains dozens of reproducible tools and visually engaging worksheets.
