Getting Comfortable with Uncertainty for Teens

Today's teens face an increasingly uncertain world. In this practical guide, two psychologists help teen readers gain a greater understanding of how uncertainty can trigger feelings of anxiety, fear, worry, and self-doubt. Grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), the book offers ten skills-based tips to encourage teens to take ''smart risks,'' overcome avoidant behaviors, and be more flexible as they develop a tolerance of uncertainty and learn to take valued actions toward creating positive change in their lives and the world.
