Good thinking book cover

GOOD THINKING – A teenagers’ guide to managing stress and emotions using CBT

Sarah Edelman and Louise Remond

Teenage years can be a challenging time. There are lots of changes happening—physical, social and mental, and emotional ups and downs are common. Upsetting emotions can lead to self-defeating behaviours, such as avoidance irritability, withdrawal and brooding

GOOD THINKING is a practical guide to managing some of the challenges like these that arise during adolescence.  It contains plenty of real-life examples, practical tools and exercises, spelling out step-by-step strategies. The book also provides skills to manage unhelpful emotions to make our lives much easier, now and into the future. These skills help us to get back on track more quickly when things go wrong.

Using the principals of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), the book is grounded in evidence-based techniques that have been shown to be effective for managing anxiety and depression, offering valuable skills for a happier and more confident life.
