Critic reviews

“Anxiety Relief for Teens is a well-structured therapeutic guide, specially designed and written to address the complexity of young lives. Drawing from many corners of behavioral and cognitive therapies, Dr. Galanti discusses relatable aspects of teens’ behavior, thinking, and emotional experience. Integrated throughout are numerous therapeutic morsels in the forms of quiz-type assessments, exercises, and tools to create real and lasting change in the reader. This book is great for teens as well as clinicians working with teens.” (Mitchell L. Schare, PhD, ABPP, professor of clinical psychology, Hofstra University; board certified in behavioral and cognitive therapies, American Board of Professional Psychology)

“Anxiety Relief for Teens offers readers a toolbox from which they can choose what works. Dr. Galanti intersperses definitions and context with games and practice, along with vignettes that give examples of what went right or wrong. Each of the exercises is presented cookbook style, like recipes with times needed and expected outcomes. The reader can take as little or as much as is comfortable, and walk away with useful steps to employ immediately; and since they’re all small steps, triumph is on the next page.” (David Teisler, CAE, director of communications and deputy executive director at the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies)

“Dr. Galanti’s book, Anxiety Relief for Teens, is an invaluable resource for teens, young adults, parents, and clinicians, containing skills and exercises readers can immediately implement and use with great results. The language and diagrams throughout the book are clear and incredibly relevant, making it a unique contribution and a go-to book for clients and clinicians alike! There is a great need in today’s high-pressure, high-speed world for young people to feel empowered to understand and manage their anxiety and fears so they can unleash and maximize their potential. I cannot wait to introduce this book to all of the teens, young adults, and colleagues in my life!” (Yael Muskat, PsyD, director, Counseling Center, Yeshiva University)

Not for typical teens

Seems more like teens with serious anxiety, wish the reviews I read clarified this.
Stay away unless your teen’s got serious anxiety.
