This book provides clinicians with a CBT informed curriculum specifically designed for neurodiverse children and teens with co-occurring anxiety disorders.
Research has shown that neurodivergent individuals respond better to mental health interventions when they are adapted to their unique needs. The concepts and strategies in this book, guided by CBT principles, address these needs and provide clinicians with an affirming and supportive approach to treatment with neurodiverse clients. The visually engaging templates throughout help clients recognize and communicate their feelings with others, allowing them to self-regulate and feel their emotions, leading to a sense of achievement during treatment.
A must have resource on the bookshelf of any psychologist, social worker, counselor, and other professionals working with neurodivergent children and teens.
Critic Reviews:
"Jennifer Cork’s What’s Your Anxiety Level? is a game-changing resource for neurodivergent kids and teens with anxiety. As an autistic individual, I know how valuable this would have been. Rooted in affirming, research-backed CBT adaptations, it empowers kids with self-regulation tools while respecting their needs—a must-read for clinicians and caregivers!"
Dr. Kerry Magro, Ed.D., CAS
“What’s Your Anxiety Level? Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Neurodivergent Children and Teens with Co-Occurring Anxiety Disorders provides a voice for individuals, presenting activities that can be utilized across environments, empowering them to develop strong self-regulation skills as they take control of their emotions.”
Carol Burmeister, MA, Author and Educational Consultant
“When I worked with special education children and teens, I wished there had been a curriculum like Dr. Jennifer Cork’s What’s Your Anxiety Level? The cognitive behavioral therapy techniques which were successful with many populations did not resonate with our neurodivergent students or help them with their anxiety. Finally, now we have answers and hope for these young people.”
