Feeling Better: A Kid's Book about Therapy

Appropriate for the "Tween/Teen" market. Using a journal format, 12-year-old Maya chronicles her emotional ups and downs and describes the process of psychotherapy. Maya begins by describing a change in her feelings and functioning, a lack of interest in things she previously enjoyed, etc. None of the problems are extreme, but serious enough to merit attention and intervention. The focus is not about resolving Maya's particular problems but about describing and informing the reader about the psychotherapy process.
