The CBT Toolbox for Young Adults: 170 Tools for Coping with Stress, Building Healthy Habits & Navigating Adulthood

Doctor had my daughter start this and it has been very helpful in her progress

I have loved all of Lisa's books!! Well done, layout is great, super helpful for homework with clients in therapy sessions, and to work on items at home. Lisa has a way of clearly explaining items in her books without making it to boring or complicated along with having a creative way to implement the technique with all ages. You won't regret this purchase or any of her other books...so glad to have this! I hope she continues to write more books for young adults, and other audiences too. I would love a book of theirs on grief work for teens.

This workbook is a fantastic resource that helps empower a young adult to make thoughtful decisions. Anyone who is struggling to support independence in their children or students should definitely pick up a copy! It is very user-friendly, and can be used an in therapy activity, or for homework. Parents can also use the worksheets to help provide scaffolding support to their kids at home. Love it!! Highly recommended!!

There are many great resources for helping students prepare to live independently.

The CBT Toolbox for Young Adults is an amazing resource!! As a high school counselor, I find myself struggling to find age appropriate tools and resources for small groups or individual sessions. Many books geared towards their age group are too “elementary” or outdated to relate to. When networking with other secondary counselors, it seems we all struggle to find a “curriculum” that checks the boxes without costing hundreds of dollars or being some kind of school-wide program that overlaps what we already have in place. This resource breaks down many life skills teens struggle with and helps give me something concrete when addressing motivation and personal accountability. Definitely worth the investment!!

This book as a ton of easy to use and helpful tools to use both in sessions and to give to clients to do at home. As someone who has worked both in schools and is transitioning to private practice, this book is so helpful! From high school and college counselors, to therapists working in the community, this book will have helpful tools for you!From providing a coping check in to help guide your session, to negative self talk activities, to money and college skills, to ways to communicate effectively and how to build resiliency, this tool book covers it all! It’s easy to grab and go with an activity/worksheet to help build strategies with adolescent and young adult clients! Definitely grab this book!!

Dr. Phifer knocks it out of the park with this book full of worksheets for use with young adults. The book is organized so topics are easy to find and the worksheets are in simple language and age appropriate. It is my “go to” when I need an activity to guide a 1:1 session or give an outside activity to support social emotional development. Excellent resource that sits on my desk within arm’s reach!

Like many parents of teens and tweens, we've been craving some sort of practical approach to help our kids think through 'life' situations and developing helpful habits, with something other than 'here's what worked for me'. This workbook is just that--straightforward 'homework' and structure to help with the parts of 'growing up' that aren't (usually) taught in school.
