Kind words from the room

I am a therapist and I am always looking for tools to help my clients with anxiety and depression. I have used these cards with multiple clients and have received good feedback.
Laura
Thank you for the materials and resources. I am an addiction medicine nurse and alcohol drug counselor. This material are highly valuable for the group I run but are also used for individual meetings with clients. Thank you for all your hard effort and time. Kind regards, Amy.
Amy
Very visually stimulating and organized with great graphics. A lot of work has been done on these worksheets. Thank you.

Fantastic! It has enormously helped me, my friends and my students!

A Gentle Observation

You hold a lot for everyone else. This is where something holds you.

If you are here, you are probably juggling a full caseload, a crowded Google Drive and about twenty ideas for workbooks or games that live in your head or half finished folders. You know you could be helping more people and earning in ways that are not tied to one-to-one sessions, but you are tired, busy and unsure where to start.

Nice to meet you

I'm Jemma Heyden

I'm a trained mental health professional who's been working in the mental health space since 2013. I've sat in private practice rooms, under-resourced clinics, lively school corridors, and community shelters.

I built the Therapy Resource Library the way I wish it had existed when I was seeing a full caseload and trying to plan groups at 10pm, Googling “fun coping skills activity” five minutes before a teen walked in, and sketching diagrams on scrap paper that I knew deserved to become real, usable tools.

My background blends psychology, group work, graphic design, and quietly building an online business. That means I care about three things equally: clinical integrity, client-friendly language and visuals, and making your workday simpler, not more complicated.

The Library started as my personal toolkit. It's grown with the input of thousands of mental health professionals around the world, and it keeps evolving as our work evolves. I'd love to have you inside it too.

Bicultural Identity in Latino Kids: The Complete Evidence-Based Therapist's Guide to Tools That Work

Evidence-based approach to bicultural identity therapy with Latino children. Includes research, clinical frameworks, and 8 ready-to-use tools for therapists, counsellors, and school psychologists. Something a school counsellor said to me recently has been stuck in my head. She works with a lot of Latino kids, many of them second-generation, navigating Spanish at home and English everywhere else. And she said: "I do all the culturally competent things.

Addressing Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder In The Workplace.

Adults With ADHD Are Already In Your Therapy Room, You Just Might Not Know It Yet There's a pattern that keeps coming up in conversations with therapists in my community. A client has been struggling at work for years. Missed deadlines, conflict with a manager, that horrible stuck feeling where they know exactly what they need to do and absolutely cannot make themselves start it. They've been told they're not living up to their potential. They've internalised it. They come to 9 Self-Esteem Worksheets for Teens That Go Beyond Positive Thinking 20 May 2026

9 Self-Esteem Worksheets for Teens That Go Beyond Positive Thinking

A teenager sits across from you. School is fine. Friends exist. Nothing catastrophic has happened. By most external measures, they are doing okay. But somewhere between elementary school and now, a quiet voice has taken up permanent residence in their head. And it does not say kind things. This is one of the most common presentations in adolescent therapy right now and one of the hardest to address with standard approaches. Positive affirmations bounce off. Generic coping str 9 Therapy Worksheets for Young Adults Feeling Behind in Life 11 May 2026

9 Therapy Worksheets for Young Adults Feeling Behind in Life

A 26-year-old sits across from you. Nothing catastrophic has happened. They have a job, a flat, a reasonable social life. By most measurable standards, they are doing fine. And yet the first thing they say is: "I feel like I'm behind." Behind who? Behind what? The answer, when you press on it, is vague, a composite of what their friends have, what their parents expected, what Instagram surfaces every morning, and a script about what a life in your mid-twenties is supposed to 7 Emotionally Focused Therapy Techniques for Couples Therapists 5 May 2026

7 Emotionally Focused Therapy Techniques for Couples Therapists

Seven practical EFT techniques for couples work, from mapping the negative cycle to the softening moment. Includes a free worksheet and a done-for-you workbook for therapists. Two people sit across from you. They have done this before; the same argument, the same silence, the same drive home where neither of them speaks. By the time they're in your room, they've each privately decided the problem is the other person.

Why Sibling Fights Keep Repeating (And the Framework That Actually Changes It)

Two children. One broke what the other was building. There is crying, shouting, a story you have already heard three times in as many weeks. You step in, de-escalate the situation, and when things settle, you turn to whoever caused the damage and say: "Now apologise." The word gets said. Monotone, reluctant. Everyone moves on. And next week it happens again. This is not a parenting failure or a behaviour problem; it happens when conflict ends before it has actually been resol Nervous System Regulation in Session: A Practical Guide to Polyvagal-Informed and Somatic Tools for Therapists 21 April 2026

Nervous System Regulation in Session: A Practical Guide to Polyvagal-Informed and Somatic Tools for Therapists

The client is describing something that happened three weeks ago. Her voice is steady. She's choosing her words carefully. And when she pauses to collect her thoughts, you notice her jaw has been clenched for the past ten minutes. She is articulate, self-aware, and genuinely trying. Her nervous system is somewhere else entirely. This is one of the most common and most important moments in clinical practice: a client who can narrate her experience clearly, but whose body hasn' Why Psychoeducation Handouts Might Be the Most Underused Tool in Your Therapy Kit 7 April 2026

Why Psychoeducation Handouts Might Be the Most Underused Tool in Your Therapy Kit

A practical guide to psychoeducation handouts for therapists. What they are, why they work, the different formats, and how to choose the right one for the right client moment. Your client has just described the same pattern for the third session running. They understand it in the room with you. They nod. They can articulate it back. And then they go home, and the understanding disappears under the weight of their actual week. It's not that they're not trying. It's that a verb The Most Useful Therapy Worksheet Categories to Keep on Hand 31 March 2026

The Most Useful Therapy Worksheet Categories to Keep on Hand

You're three minutes into session and you know exactly what would help. Your client is circling the same thought loop, or they're stiff with anxiety, or they need permission to name something they've been swallowing. You open your digital folder, scan through eighteen different documents, and realise none of them are quite right. So you improvise. You sketch something quickly on a notepad. It works, but it takes energy you didn't have to spare, and you can't reuse it cleanly 7 Ways Therapists Can Turn Clinical Knowledge into Digital Products 19 March 2026

7 Ways Therapists Can Turn Clinical Knowledge into Digital Products

You have spent years in training. You have sat with hundreds of people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. You have built a toolkit in your head, a way of thinking, a clinical instinct that takes years to develop. And yet, if you stopped seeing clients tomorrow, that knowledge would just sit there. Unused. Earning nothing. That is not a reflection of your value. It is a reflection of how therapists have traditionally been taught to think about income.

How to Use Therapy Worksheets More Intentionally in Session

There is a particular kind of worksheet guilt that most therapists know well. You found a good one online. Maybe you even made one yourself. You printed it, handed it to your client, watched them scan it politely, and then spent the next session noticing it had not really landed. It sat on their kitchen table. Or in their bag. Or got lost entirely. The worksheet was fine. The timing was off, or the setup was missing, or there was no real bridge between the paper and the work 9 Acronyms That Turn Therapy Skills Into Habits 2 November 2025

Why Impulse Control Shapes the Classroom Experience Have you ever had a student blurt out the answer before you finished asking the question?

Maybe you bounce between tasks without finishing, lose track of time, or forget small but important details.

The Reassurance Trap: Why OCD Feels Stronger and How to Stop It

Why Reassurance Feels Good but Keeps You Stuck Have you ever caught yourself asking the same question again and again, even when you already know the answer? Maybe you checked if the door was locked. Maybe you asked someone if everything was okay. Or maybe you scrolled back through a text just to be sure. For a moment, the answer feels comforting. Then the doubt slips back in. Stronger than before... This is the cycle that makes Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) so draining 8 Executive Functioning Skills That Make or Break a Child’s School Day 6 October 2025

8 Executive Functioning Skills That Make or Break a Child’s School Day

Some days it might feel like you’re just putting out fires. One child is overwhelmed before the lesson even starts, another is spiraling after a minor transition, and your plans for the session? Gone. You’re not alone if you’ve ever sat there wondering, "Is this resistance, or is something else going on?" Many of the struggles you see, the impulsivity, the emotional outbursts, the messy desks, the endless procrastination, aren’t signs of defiance. They’re signs of underdevelo ADHD Paralysis vs. Procrastination: What’s Really Holding You Back? 30 September 2025

ADHD Paralysis vs. Procrastination: What’s Really Holding You Back?

Ever had one of those days where the simplest task feels like climbing a mountain? You know what needs to be done, it’s not even that complicated, and yet… nothing happens. You sit. You freeze. You scroll. You pace. You tell yourself, "Just start!" but your brain refuses to cooperate. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone , and you’re not lazy. That frozen feeling has a name: ADHD paralysis.

Motivational Interviewing in Tough Sessions: 7 Strategies That Work

You know the theory. You’ve had the training. And you’ve seen Motivational Interviewing work beautifully in session after session. But then there's that one client who keeps circling the same issue, week after week. No forward motion. No shift in motivation. Just a loop of "maybe," "not yet," or "I don't know." That loop? It can leave you feeling stuck, too. When that happens, it doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong. It just means something’s getting in the way, and it mi 7 Sneaky Signs You’re Self-Sabotaging Without Realizing It 14 September 2025

7 Sneaky Signs You’re Self-Sabotaging Without Realizing It

You set the goal, you make the plan, you even clear your schedule... and then suddenly, you find yourself reorganizing your bookshelves or deep-diving into cat videos instead of doing the thing you actually want to do. Sound familiar? That gap between what you want and what you do? That might be self-sabotage at work. Self-sabotage isn’t about being lazy or broken. It’s the patterns and habits that sneak in and quietly block your progress.

Why Avoiding Your Emotions Isn’t Working-and What ACT Suggests Instead

If you've ever caught yourself thinking, "I just need to stop feeling this way," you're not alone. Most of us learned somewhere along the way that uncomfortable emotions should be fixed, avoided, or pushed aside. And when that doesn't work, when the anxiety is still buzzing, or the sadness won't lift, it's easy to feel stuck or even like you're doing something wrong. But here's the thing: your emotions aren't problems to be solved. They're messengers. And trying to silence th 7 Printable Grief Activities You Can Use Right Away 2 September 2025

Maybe it comes quietly at the end of the day when the house feels too still, or maybe it rises suddenly when you see something that reminds you of the person or life you lost. Grief touches each of us in different ways, and it often feels even more complicated when children are also involved.

Restorative Justice Strategies for School Counselors and Educators: 5 Steps to Build Trust, Connection, and Reduce Student Conflicts

The start of a new school year always has its own kind of magic. There’s the hum of possibility in the air, fresh notebooks waiting to be filled, pencils sharpened and ready, and plenty of chances to set a positive tone for the months ahead. For school counselors, this isn’t just a date on the calendar. It’s a chance to press reset and set the stage for how the year will feel, look, and flow. Of course, the start of the year can be a lot. You’re meeting brand new faces, check Teen Therapy Just Got Easier: 700+ Tools to Help Teens Regulate, Reflect, and Reconnect 16 August 2025

Teen Therapy Just Got Easier: 700+ Tools to Help Teens Regulate, Reflect, and Reconnect

Have you ever sat across from a teen who suddenly shuts down in the middle of a conversation? Or maybe they’ve gone from calm to completely overwhelmed in seconds. One moment they’re in the room with you, the next it feels like they’ve disappeared behind a wall of silence, anger, or panic. If you’ve been there, you know how heavy those moments can feel. It can feel like holding the weight of their emotions with no clear path forward.

From Zones to Action: Helping Kids Regulate When Emotions Are Big

Have you ever had a student proudly point to the color zone they're in... only to spiral minutes later when something goes wrong? It can be so disheartening. You've spent time teaching the zones, hanging posters, practicing check-ins. And yet, when emotions run high, many kids freeze, act out, or shut down. Not because they aren't learning, but because there's a gap between naming a feeling and knowing what to do with it. Maybe you've seen a child correctly identify the Yello 5 Ready-to-Use Therapy Board Games For Group Counseling Sessions 5 August 2025

5 Ready-to-Use Therapy Board Games For Group Counseling Sessions

You’ve probably had one of those days: a group of students is staring at you with crossed arms, nervous glances, or complete silence. You’ve prepped your session, but getting them to open up? That’s another story. That’s where therapy board games become your not-so-secret weapon. Games break the ice, lower defenses, and give students something concrete to focus on, so the pressure of "sharing" doesn’t feel quite so big. They turn difficult topics like friendship conflict, big 6 Weeks of EBSA Support: A Gentle Framework for School Counselors 27 July 2025

It always starts the same way: A student who’s been doing "okay" suddenly starts missing days. At first, it’s just a few here and there. Then it’s full weeks. Then they disappear from the hallways altogether. And you're left wondering: Where do I even begin?

Why an Emotionally Supportive Classroom Matters As school counselors and educators, you know how essential it is to create a space where kids feel safe, understood, and supported. After all, a child’s emotional well-being is just as important as their academic success.

8 EMDR Phases, 1 Toolkit: What Every Therapist Needs at Their Fingertips

That moment when you’re not sure whether to keep going or circle back... You know the one. You’re mid-session, deep in the desensitization phase, and suddenly your client seems overwhelmed, shuts down, or starts looping. Do you pause and return to resourcing, push forward, or switch targets entirely? Even when you’ve done this work for years, those moments can feel uncertain.

15 Printable Feelings Wheels That Help Clients Finally Say “That’s What I’m Feeling”

"Some Days, They Just Don’t Have the Words" You know the look. A client stares down, shifts in their seat, shrugs. "I don’t know... just bad, I guess." And you can feel it, there’s so much going on under the surface, but the words just won’t come. Sometimes, no matter how gently you ask or how safe the space feels, naming emotions is hard. Especially when those emotions are tangled up in trauma, anxiety, overwhelm, or just years of not being allowed to feel.

30+ Trauma Tools Every Therapist Needs (And When to Use Them)

Some sessions feel like a breakthrough. Others feel like you're walking in circles — stuck in the same story, the same shutdown, the same silence. And even though you know the theory, there are days when it feels like your trauma tools just aren’t quite landing. Working with trauma is layered, unpredictable, and often emotionally exhausting. But sometimes, what makes the biggest difference isn’t a brand new modality — it’s having something simple, supportive, and ready-to-use
