Synopsis

Today's kids face unprecedented levels of anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. Despite our best efforts, our children continue to struggle with internal and external pressures that impact their mental health. If we're doing all we can to make sure our kids are happy, why aren't they?

Beloved therapists, speakers, and authors Sissy Goff and David Thomas have discovered the key is found in one word: capable. Capable kids are confident kids who don't shrink from challenges. They're resilient kids who get back up when life knocks them down. They're thriving kids because they have a deep belief in their ability to do hard things, overcome roadblocks, and keep moving forward.

In Capable, Sissy and David draw on their more than fifty years of combined counseling experience to offer a clinically sound, emotionally attuned, faith-informed approach to help kids build the resilience they need in today's world. Through evidence-based insight and practical guidance, Sissy and David equip you to nurture capability—the internalized belief that a child can face adversity, navigate challenges, manage stress, and build confidence in who they are and who God has made them to be.This enhanced audiobook includes bonus Q&A with the authors.

I'm a huge fan of Sissy & David. I've read the majority of their books. I felt this one was their best one yet! I felt this was so affirming to me as a parent.

Goodreads review by Kelly on April 16, 2026

It's important to note that this is a religious book; each chapter ends discussing biblical verses and how they relate to what was discussed in the chapter. But what the authors discuss which is not religious is very helpful and feels like well-grounded advice. What children are dealing with these d......more

Goodreads review by Chelsea on April 20, 2026

What I loved most is the breakdown of the three "milestones"—emotional, social, and spiritual. It’s incredibly practical, giving you specific signs to look for in your kids and, more importantly, actionable steps to help them grow. The authors have a gentle, encouraging tone that makes you feel supp......more

As a fan of Sissy and David, I was so excited for this book and it did not disappoint! It had a good mix of practical advice and statistics/overview of issues.
