Goode Thoughts Therapy

💭 Good Thoughts by Goode Thoughts | Part 5

Children aren’t meant to conquer their fears in a single day.

Confidence is built through small, repeated steps... not one big leap. Instead of expecting instant success, celebrate every brave attempt.💛

This book has been years in the making. 🤍

The idea first came to me in college after reflecting on my own struggle with school anxiety in high school. That experience inspired me to become a school counselor and therapist.

The main character, Rosie, is named after a little rose keychain from my grandmother that I carried whenever I was afraid to go to school.

During a snowstorm this January, I finally sat down and wrote the story I’d been carrying with me for years.

Rosie Refuses is for children experiencing school anxiety, for the families supporting them, and in honor of the incredible work school counselors do every day. I hope it helps kids feel seen, supported, and a little less alone. ❤️
