From the bestselling author of the Starving the Gremlin series, a CBT workbook to help young people feel confident
Kate Collins-Donnelly has worked as a therapist, psychologist, criminologist and anger management consultant based in the UK for many years. She runs a successful independent consultancy practice which provides cognitive behavioural therapy, counselling, coaching and training, and is head of the Psychological and Criminological Research Division. She is the author of several books for children and young people published by JKP, including Banish Your Body Image Thief, Banish Your Self-Esteem Thief and the Starving the Gremlin series.
Yet again, Kate Collins-Donnelly has managed to take a complex
subject and communicate it in simple, fun and engaging language.
Regardless of age or background, children, young people and
practitioners alike will not help but enjoy this cognitive
behavioural journey of self-discovery. For the child or young
person, the book oozes interesting and fun ways to help you feel
good about yourself and to motivate you to banish your Self-Esteem
Thief! For parents, I suspect the journey will be just as much fun
and enlightening! For the practitioner, the book communicates both
breadth and depth of theory and provides a useful and clever
framework to facilitate change in others. Without doubt, the
Self-Esteem Thief will be joining my language of change!

This is an excellent workbook for any young person struggling with
low self-esteem. The author uses a cognitive behavioural and
mindfulness approach which is designed to help you change how you
think and act. The book contains real life stories to help young
people realise that they are not alone in their struggle. It's laid
out in a friendly and easy way, easy to read cover to cover or to
dip in and out of. The activities are straight forward and provide
you with the necessary tools to change your way of thinking. I have
used some of the activities from this workbook with my clients and
have been impressed with the results.
