Self-Built Teens is an easy-to-use workbook for counselors, parents, or anyone working with youth.  Each life lesson includes a short story with reflective turn and talk prompts to open the line of communication.  Mindful chair stretches are included to give movement, release tension, and wake up learning.  This organized toolkit is packed full of activities that create shifts and ignite momentum towards incredible possibilities.

As a district school counselor, Julie Frizzi spent hours listening to teens’ ideas on ways to boost CONNECTION in schools.  These randomly chosen teens requested short movement breaks, reflection time with classmates, and fun ice-breaker activities.  Teens & Up was created with these elements to build relationships, increase self-awareness, boost problem-solving skills, and escalate self-management tools.  Find more social-emotional books and resources for younger children on the Powerful You website:  https://www.powerfulyou.info
