Self-Worth Therapy Toolkit for Teens: Workbook, Cards and Games

Self-Worth Therapy Toolkit for Teens

Help teens explore self-worth through engaging worksheets, reusable cards, collaborative games and practical therapy activities.

This comprehensive printable toolkit moves beyond traditional self-esteem worksheets. It gives therapists multiple ways to help clients explore strengths, identity, self-talk, values, boundaries, relationships and unconditional human worth.

Activities can be written, discussed, sorted, role-played, played as games or adapted for clients who benefit from reduced writing and greater choice. The modern visual style is engaging for teens without feeling childish or visually overwhelming.
