Therapeutic Wellbeing Toolbox

Therapeutic Wellbeing Toolbox

Our go to toolbox offers over 180 strategies that can be used to deliver therapeutic support to develop children's wellbeing and self-regulation skills.

This easy to use toolbox is portable and can be taken from room to room and comes with a collection of fidgets for use within the intervention sessions.

Written by Dr Tina Rae, child psychologist who has over 30 years' experience specialising in the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people. The toolbox contains resources to support six key areas of: Building Confidence and Self Esteem, Effective Thinking (CBT), Mindfulness, Positive Psychology Tools, Anxiety Management, and Anger and Stress Management. Each section has a collection of 30 activities which help children to develop a range of strategies within this area. Within the introductory booklet, there is a screening tool that will help practitioners to identify which of the six aspects to begin with when working with a child. Accompanying the toolkit there is a CPD video with over 2 hours of training from Dr Tina Rae, contained on a USB drive which helps practitioners understand the underpinning theory and she provides her advice around running the sessions. The Therapeutic Toolbox has been developed so that it can be used and delivered by all teachers, TA’s and SENCO’s without the need for specialist training from a therapist. Note: Please remember that this is not a therapeutic intervention as delivered by a specialist provider and certainly does not replace the role of the specialist therapeutic professional.

This toolbox is designed to be used within the context of a calm corner or safe space, either with an individual or as part of a small group. Fidgets may vary.
