I find in my practice that negative thought patterns drive a lot of the depression and anxiety I treat in teens--and that shifting those thoughts is difficult, to say the least. It is a rare book that is able to speak directly to teenagers in language that they understand. Author Katie Hurley offers thoughtful, actionable steps that will drive positive thinking for young readers for every day of the year. Every entry is clear, hopeful, and succinct. Katie's empathy, expertise, and experience working with teens is evident on every beautiful page. I already know this book will be a staple in my practice with teens, and I plan to put some of Katie's advice to work in my own life."" --John Duffy, PsyD, Clinical Psychologist, Best-Selling Author of Parenting the New Teen in the Age of Anxiety
