This Book Is a Safe Space: Cute Doodles and Therapy Strategies to Support Self-Love and Wellbeing (Anxiety & Depression Self-Help)

This book has turned out to be an excellent resource for my middle-schooler. Full of great info about anxiety and ways to cope, written in an accessible and engaging way. Nicely broken up with charts and illustrations while still having substance.

I LOVE THIS BOOK! Amy Tran puts the issues around emotional regulation in easy to understand formats. Her diagrams are a gift to my brain that often has too many words in it. Amy helps us builds a tool box to use when emotions overwhelm by teaching skills like stepping away, riding the wave before analyzing, questioning cultural or parental shame messages. She begins with mental and physical ways of tuning down the noise then she challenges assumptions that complicate and make us relive emotions. I have already gifted this book and imagine I will do it again. Bravo, Amy Tran!

Wow what a cute a book with a lot of essential information. I love how you made everything so simple and easy to understand and the pictures were a plus! (Hello adhd visual learner!) 30 minutes into reading I immediately went back and bought another copy for my 17 year old sister. I also have a few friends who have recently started their journey on self help and understanding their traumas and how they are now affected as adults, and I have already sent this book over to a few because it has so much great information that so many can benefit from whether you’re just starting your healing journey or you have been on it. Amazing job Amy!! Thank you for your creative and insightful work.

The combo of written words, stories, examples and infographics makes this the perfect guide to mental health. The layout is easy to navigate if you need to hop to a specific chapter. The written words give an in-depth background, while the infographics help when a quick reference is needed. The challenges in each section offer a natural stopping/reflection point for each topic. I have marked up my book with tabs and highlighted sentences, and will continue to use it for years to come!

This book is amazing! Such an incredible melding of art and therapy to provide a safe and supportive journey for the reader. It fosters such great opportunities for reflection through interaction, I already cannot wait to re-read.

Great book easy to understand perfectly written!

This book is very informative and digestible. I love that it has so many helpful illustrations.

This book is incredible! I highly recommend buying it. It’s very interactive and reader-friendly. Amy has managed to create a safe space through her book by validating your emotions and helping you understand them, as well as offering very gentle solutions for navigating the way you talk to yourself and how you approach these big emotions. Buy it!!!
