Kiki Fehling: The LGBTQ+ Mental Health Workbook, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Powerful and proven-effective skills to improve your mental health and cultivate resilience, self-love, and queer joy.

If you identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, or queer, and you are also struggling with a mental health issue such as trauma, depression, or anxiety, you are notalone. LGBTQ+ folks are at a greater risk for mental health challenges--often as a result of discrimination, harassment, violence, and other forms of bigotry. This workbook offers powerful and compassionate tools you can use to improve your well-being, find emotional balance, connect with a vibrant and joyful community, and thrive.

Written by a queer therapist, this evidence-based workbook outlines the core skills of dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)--mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness--to improve your mental health and help you embrace who you are. You'll learn to manage intense emotions, overcome fear and anxiety, and cultivate resilience and self-compassion. And finally, you'll discover strategies to help you cope with stigma, challenge negative self-talk, and live a full and meaningful life as your authentic self.

This empowering workbook will help you:

• Work through difficult thoughts and feelings
• Overcome stigma, fear, and shame
• Cultivate self-acceptance and build self-worth
• Build or connect with a community
• Celebrate who you are!
