BOSTON, Dec. 7, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Casey O'Brien Martin is proud to announce the release of her new book, "Skills for Big Feelings" on December 7th, 2020, published by Whole Child Counseling. Designed to guide educators and mental health professionals with techniques to help kids identify, understand, and regulate their feelings in a healthy and productive manner.

At the heart of this book is the belief that when families, counselors, teachers, or group facilitators work collaboratively together, by using the same language, modeling, and reinforcing the same skills, the child succeeds.

Skills for Big Feelings is a 12-week social-emotional learning guide for educators and mental health professionals to teach children relaxation, regulation, and coping techniques. Kids need this now more than ever!

Inside this heartfelt, comprehensive guide, School Adjustment Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor Casey O'Brien Martin reveals a powerful, practical framework to help children cope with feelings, deal with stress, and learn to thrive.

Acknowledging triggers and much more

Casey O'Brien Martin is on a mission to help children develop emotional literacy at a young age.

"My hope is that by implementing interventions earlier and with more children, I will prevent the development of mental health concerns later in life. It is for this reason that I advocate for and truly believe in the power of preventative, tier-one mental health support for all students in schools. All children should be taught social-emotional skills, including the ability to understand their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors." - Casey O'Brien Martin, Author of "Skills for Big Feelings"
