Be Brave Activity Book: 100 Exposure-Based Challenges That Dare Kids to Boss Back Their Worry and Anxiety Once and for All

Take your child’s worries from a shriek to a shrug!

Helping anxious kids thrive is about helping them face fears head-on when it matters most. Instead of avoiding spooky stuff, shying away from discomfort, or preventing anxiety from happening at all, we have to help kids feel confident that they can do what matters to them–Pet the dog! Ride the ride! Give the speech!–despite any anxiety that shows up.

Cheering kids on toward a big brave life is what The Be Brave Activity Book is all about. Blending the cutting-edge science of pediatric anxiety treatment with a whole lot of silly fun, each chapter offers a CBT-based introduction to a fear, followed by a series of playful and bravery-building dares (aka exposures!) to help kiddos go from scared to prepared when it comes to:

• Social anxiety
• School anxiety
• Separation anxiety
• Perfectionism
• Phobias
• Contamination fears
• Intrusive thoughts
• Panic
• Embarrassment
• Uncertainty

Whether you are a clinician, teacher, or parent looking to support your child, these exposures will take kids juuust outside their comfort zone (ahem, the place confidence is born!), so they can learn to live a full, fun, BRAVE life where their anxiety isn’t the boss anymore.
