I look forward to using activity pages from The CBT Art Activity
Book - the detail and content of each page is ideal for the kind of
art journaling and creative expression activities I do with my
clients. The use of cognitive behavioral therapy within the
handouts is a bonus!

to Get Kids Offline, Outdoors, and Connected to Nature: 200+

Wellbeing'*
A little treasure inspired by cognitive behavioural psychotherapy
ideas and creative principles. Beautiful and easy to use
worksheets, which will compliment a clinician's tool kit.
Especially helpful for brief interventions with emphasis on
emotional exploration.

I am neither a CBT therapist nor an artist - and yet it feels like
this book was produced with me in mind. A synthesis of informative
text and inspirational designs that leave me excited about new
possibilities in my work with a whole range of people I'm working
with - young people, adults and families. This book will appeal,
and be extremely useful to counsellors and therapists from a broad
spectrum of theoretical orientations, and is by no means limited to
those who describe themselves as 'CBT therapists' or as being
'artistic.' Bravo Jennifer, this is a wonderful resource for
enhancing and deepening the therapeutic encounter.

Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor*
What a brilliant resource for therapists working with young people!
The worksheet designs are immediately engaging and aesthetically
suited to young people. Each section starts with brief helpful and
accessible information for the counsellor. I am sure that this is
what young people want - an opportunity to have conversations with
adults on their own terms, choosing a word, a question, a pattern
to work into. An important addition for the counselling field.
Adults will want to use it too!
*Dr Gail Simon, Principal Lecturer in Systemic Practice, University
of Bedfordshire*
The author sums up the core principle of CBT therapy in a very
readable, clear an concise way... Guest's lovely, intricately
patterned backgrounds and frames are reminiscent of the current
spate of adult colouring books and allow the sheets to appeal to
different age groups... One of the things I love about this book is
that the author's drawings invite the user to "have a go", "make
their mark" and not worry whether they are "artistic" or not... I
have certainly enjoyed using this book myself, as well as inviting
clients to use it to help them explore their own thoughts, and
would happily recommend it to other therapists.
