The Anxiety Sisters are back with the second book in their series, which addresses everything you wanted to know about anxiety but were too anxious to ask. Based on current research and interviews with more than 100 [pre]college anxiety sufferers, the focus of this particular book is pre-adult anxiety, which arises between the ages of 17 and 22--a time when most older teenagers are preparing for college and, possibly, to leave home. The paradox of having physically mature bodies topped by not yet fully-developed brains is further complicated by all of the social and cultural pressures felt by this age group. As such, understanding and managing pre-adult anxiety can be particularly tricky. Written with their signature humor and wacky illustrations, Anxiety 101 is both thorough and accessible for [pre]college students and any adults in their lives.

"Depression in college students has reached a crisis and the prevalence continues to rise. The increasing psychological distress of the current generation, Gen Z, and their greater willingness to obtaining mental health care have overwhelmed most college counseling services. Despite this sobering news, parents can play a critically important role and the book describes a plan for supporting and preventing depression in young people. Each chapter concludes with practical suggestions and strategies for parents. There are four sections. The first section is a description of adolescent development and the types of depressive symptoms and disorders that may emerge. The second section details the foundation that students need in order to move toward a successful college experience, including family support, communication and assertiveness skills; the development of self-efficacy and problem-solving skills; the process of self-regulation, and distress tolerance. Barriers to self-regulation and optimal development include underage substance use and unsafe sexual relationships. The third section examines vulnerabilities to depression, including cognitive distortions, perfectionism, and the stress of being a sexual minority or an overweight and thus subject to harassment. Challenges faced by students are seen as "different," are explored. what happens to students who are seen as "different." The final section is a description of life on campus including the stresses of college life and the opportunities to develop friendships, relationships with faculty, and a more meaningful view of the future. There are chapters on how to access mental health services before and during college. The book concludes with a call to reduce stress on students and challenge the competitive individualistic culture"--

"Self-care is everywhere! But this book really hits the mark when it comes to supporting the needs of the collegiate student. As an educator and mother of a college student, this is a must-have reference for all. Dr. Verwayne has delivered once again." Yolanda Blackshear, Educator "Overwhelmed is a powerful and comprehensive resource that empowers students of color for success in college and beyond. Dr. RJ beautifully blends real-life solutions with evidence-based research to provide beacons of light in collegiate tunnels of darkness. Darkness, unfortunately, that is especially prevalent in communities of color who, for decades, have struggled with dealing with "taboo" issues. Dr. RJ shatters these generational curses with practical, constructive, and healthy solutions for young student leaders to not only heal, but hope." Rasheed Ali Cromwell, JD - President, The Harbor Institute This book is amazing and is exactly what college students need to balance their lives and mental well-being. I love how Dr. RJ has tapped into the major areas of concern that impact students as they matriculate through college. This guide is outstanding and makes self-care fun, easy, and manageable. I plan to use it in my work with students. Every clinician working with college students should read and recommend this book. Vivian Barnette, Ph.D., ABPPYou did it!

In addition, the association between gender differences and proneness to depression among college students is examined, including the risk factors (such as anxiety) in the development of depression. Furthermore, the factors that lie behind students' motivated behaviour and academic goals are addressed.

This book provides an overview of the ACCESS program, a mental health program that has been developed and tested as an efficacious treatment for college students with ADHD. This program is at the cutting edge of clinical research, incorporating treatment strategies that allow for dissemination in real world settings in order to effectively assist college students experiencing difficulties in their academic, personal, social, and emotional functioning. As cognitive behavioral approaches have proved to be the most successful psychological treatments to date, the techniques in this volume follow that model in a detailed and nuanced fashion. The authors provide a week by week breakdown of the program, supplemented by handouts and worksheets designed to facilitate better understanding of the areas targeted by the program. Filling a notable gap in research addressing the ADHD college student population, CBT for College Students with ADHD is a crucial resource for campus mental health practitioners as well as a broad range of clinicians dealing with emerging adults.
