Coping Skills for Teens Workbook
When I first started speaking a couple of years ago, I would get certain comments over and over, like:
“I love the Coping Skills for Kids Workbook, but you need to write one for teens.”
“Our teens REALLY need a book like this”
“Oh, I wish I had your stuff a few years ago. Now they’re a teen”
So, I’ve been working and writing over the last several months, and I’m proud to say that the Coping Skills for Teens Workbook is here! Take a peek inside below:
A teen version of the #1 Bestselling Coping Skills for Kids Workbook, this version is written specifically with a tween/teen audience (age 11+) in mind. There are 60 coping strategies included in the book, and it's divided into Coping Styles to make searching for a coping skill easier.
This book also includes several pages to support teens as they work on their coping skills, including:
Feelings Tracker Worksheet
Identifying Triggers and Making a Plan
Positive to Negative Thoughts Worksheet
Journal Pages
Wellness Worksheets, including a Self-Care Plan
There's also a rich resource section full of apps, books, card decks, and other resources to help teens deal with stress, anxiety and anger.
Positive words about the Coping Skills for Teens Workbook!
"As I read this book my 15-year-old and I were under a tremendous amount of stress. Janine's book helped not just my teen – but me as well. We read together about the adolescent brain, which Janine writes so helpfully about in Coping Skills for Teens. We gained a new understanding of why stress happens, and how coping skills are crucial for helping people feel better in times of stress.
We've put several of Janine's coping skills into place! I watched my teenager use these coping skills in getting better, getting home, and stepping into this new normal. He is thriving because of Janine's wonderful book. As an educator and parent, I see this book as crucial for not just every teen – but every teen's family. Required reading that you will enjoy, learn from, and feel better every time you return to it for another coping skill."

"Once again, Janine has created an essential resource packed with education, activities, and simple worksheets. The Coping Skills for Teens workbook empowers teens to understand their emotions and manage them in a variety of healthy ways. I appreciate how the skills are broken up by type, giving teens numerous options to choose from depending on the situation. They can also record the coping skills they've used as a reference when they feel stuck, frustrated, or overwhelmed in the future."
