Gr 9 Up-The journey through life entails stress of various kinds; which is not necessarily a bad thing, according to this mental health resource. However, when a teen becomes traumatized, helping that individual requires special intervention and individual actions. The authors of this refreshing text provide sound advice and strategies that are practical and highly relatable. Raja is a clinical psychologist who provides the technical and scientific information on subjects, while coauthor Ashrafi is her daughter who provides a teen's perspective on various issues. Together, this mother and daughter team delve into topics such as coping skills, anger management, fears, depression, and social supports. Common components in each chapter are sections with subheadings like "Try This!" (simple activities that individuals can do), "Jaya Says" (gray text boxes in which Ashrafi describes how she has reacted to certain issues), "Putting It All Together" (brief summary of chapter contents), and "Our Final Thoughts" (key points to remember). For those individuals undergoing post-traumatic growth, this book offers a manageable way of transforming a negative situation into something meaningful. VERDICT For collections serving teens, this self-help resource is engaging and provides inspiration for teens to realize their uniqueness and worthiness.-Jeanette Lambert, formerly at Nashville-Davidson County Schools © Copyright 2018.
