The Power of Resilience

In this breakthrough guide, the authors show adults how to call forth and nurture the power of resilience in themselves. Writing with the authority of a half century of clinical psychology practice, they explain how "negative scripts"—repetitive, self-defeating ways of thinking and behaving—can lead to hopelessness, depression, and anxiety. Using real-life, moving stories from their work, they tell readers how to rewrite those scripts and cultivate inner strength and optimism in themselves and in those around them.
