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." As a therapist and mom, I'm incredibly grateful to Lauren Mosback, LPC, NCC for this excellent contribution to children's mental health literature!" -- Andrea Dorn, MSW, LISW-CP Author of The Mindful Steps Series
