Reviews

"A wonderful resource and guide for all ages. The exercises in this book are easy to follow and there is something to appeal to almost everyone looking for a self-esteem boost or reset. I finished reading with the thought that I wish I would have had this when I was a teen." --Ann Almgren, president at Harvard Diggins City Library Board, Harvard Diggins Library, Harvard, IL "An excellent read--full of guidance and practical, ageless wisdom for teens who are looking to better themselves." --Robert W. Hasselmann, MA, middle school teacher, Robbins, IL "As with other books written by the author on this subject, this is easy to read, makes sense, and easy to apply with my clients individually, in group settings, or in family therapy sessions. My clients' ages range between ten and twenty-three, and many are at-risk youth, children, and families. I like using the book for ideas to assist clients who struggle with depression, bullying, and anxiety. They find the information applicable as they read and journal, and we process new skills. The information is therapeutic and backed by empirically sound research. This is not merely a 'self-help' book. This book is a great tool I've added to my counseling toolbox." --Nancy DeWeese, MAMHC, LPC, family therapist with Professional Services Group "Excellent resource that can be used by everyone--young and old! 'Perceive it, believe it, achieve it!' is a thought and activity process in the book that can be used in every area of life. In addition, the fifty simple ways to build confidence are just that--simple. Finally, the exercises are easily personalized for each person. Highly recommended! Great workbook!" --Kim Kanish, blended case manager, Family Psychological Association "Lisa Schab's The Self-Esteem Habit for Teens is a well-articulated definition of self-esteem and how a teen can acquire and strengthen it in their life. It's really simple and easy to follow, builds on itself, and it's not boring. ... This manual is a 'must-have' for any teen who wants to feel good about themselves." --Edward J. Nekarda, LCSW, BCD, MDiv, psychotherapist in private practice, attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) specialist, and certified rapid trauma resolution therapist
