“‘I Am Resilient!

This book was designed for use in classrooms to promote mental wellness, as an adjunct to therapy, and as an aide to parents to use with their children struggling with emotional control.”

Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Dr. Sarah K. Gardner, PsyD, NCC’s engaging tale was inspired by the author’s therapy work with her patients, and offers practical, hands-on activities that engage children in learning and applying CBT techniques in a fun and accessible way. By integrating these strategies into everyday life, “I AM Resilient!” aims to empower children to face their challenges with confidence as they learn to develop emotional control.
