Our latest award winner, Janine Halloran, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been working in the field for over 15 years. She creates products and resources which she distributes through two different businesses: Coping Skills for Kids and EncouragePlay
She wrote many different books which all are an excellent fit in counseling and school settings. She has been awarded the Counselor’s Choice Award for her workbook series: Coping Skills for Kids Workbook and the Ultimate Playdate Guide. These books offer very practical down-to-earth ways to be able to help manage symptoms, about 50-75 recommendations each. These seem to comprehensively offer practical interventions and considerations for evidence-based practices (EBPs) when working with children.
Our favorite is: Coping Skills for Kids Workbook: 75 Coping Strategies to Help Kids Deal with Stress, Anxiety, and Anger.
Dealing with stress, anxiety and anger are important skills to learn, but not all kids learn those strategies naturally. The Coping Skills for Kids Workbook can help teach children to calm down, balance their energy and emotions, and process challenging feelings. These 75 innovative, fun and engaging activities developed from her experience in schools, outpatient mental health clinics. It is even available as a digital copy too!
They are available at Amazon.com or directly from her website: www.CopingSkillsForKids.com We recommend these innovative books to any counselor and therapist working in these areas.
