English

Discover how emotional regulation and other coping skills can help you manage big emotions, big life changes, and the issues you deal with on a day to day basis. The final years of high school and the first years of college can be full of new experiences, friendships, and learning opportunities. But they can also be a time of upheaval and instability. This handbook will help you remain empowered and centered as you navigate through a variety of difficult experiences, including:

-Mental health issues like anxiety, depression, perfectionism, boredom, burnout, and grief
-Interpersonal issues like not fitting in, being gaslit, facing discrimination, and problems with communication and relationships
-External issues like collective trauma, social media pressures, political upheaval, and financial stress

Specifically designed for ages 15-21, this comprehensive guide provides valuable tools for utilizing self-regulation to build resilience and cultivate a positive mindset. Dr. Kathy Wu, a licensed psychologist, has compiled helpful strategies and practical interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and others, to help you understand and deal with difficult emotions and experiences. With engaging advice and real-life examples, this handbook equips you with the tools you need to thrive and face life's challenges head-on.
