“Alex and the Scary Things explains simple and effective coping strategies such as the 5-4-3-2-1 game in a playful and approachable way. This book can jumpstart conversations both with children who have experienced ‘scary things’ and with any child who is trying to make sense of challenging emotions.”
—Carlene MacMillan, MD, Adult and Child Psychiatrist, Trauma and
Dissociative Unit, McLean Hospital, Harvard Medical School
“This book is an excellent resource for parents, teachers, counselors, and anyone who works with children. Alex’s story is endearing, tender, and relatable. Alex’s kindness to himself and his parts will promote compassion and empathy in children—both for themselves and others. The exercises in the book will help readers participate with Alex while learning important skills to use for their own growth.”
—Nadja Reilly, Clinical Psychologist, Associate Director of the Freedman Center for Child
and Family Development at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology
