Alexithymia Workbook for Teens
$8.00
Feeling on the Inside: Understanding and Working With Alexithymia (Teen Edition)
A guided workbook for teens aged 13–18 who find it hard to name, describe, or tune into their emotions. Built around the science of alexithymia — why feelings can feel like a foreign language — and designed to move teens from confusion about their inner world to real, usable tools for awareness and regulation.
WHAT'S INSIDE:
Sectioned learning:
Phase 1: Understanding Myself
Phase 2: Tuning Into My Body
Phase 3: Building Emotion Awareness
Phase 4: Creative Expression
Phase 5: Skills and Moving Forward
Interactive pages:
body mapping activities, emotion identification ladders, self-assessment quizzes, scenario practice exercises, trigger mapping, grounding tools matched to body state, and a counsellor intake form.

PERFECT FOR:
Therapists, counsellors, and school counsellors working with teens who present as emotionally flat, hard to read, or reluctant to talk about feelings. Also valuable for teens with autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or trauma histories where alexithymia commonly co-occurs. Works well for individual sessions, telehealth, and take-home practice.

Length: 46 pages
Age range: 13–18 years

WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE:
Teens don't need words to start. This workbook meets them in the body first — sensation before label, noticing before naming — and builds from there. Clinicians will find it structured enough to follow and flexible enough to dip in and out of across sessions.
