Synopsis

From licensed clinical psychologist and relatable TikTok therapist Dr. Lauren Cook cines an accessible and practical guide aimed for tackling anxiety.

Millennials and Gen Z-ers are considered two of the most anxious generations in history. With many intense generation-specific stressors facing them in recent years—from climate change to political polarization, systemic racism, gun violence, financial instability, and so much
more—it’s easy to see why more and more people are being diagnosed with anxiety at alarming rates.

Dr. Lauren Cook, a therapist who specializes in treating Millennials and Gen Z clients, and is a Millennial who also lives with anxiety, understands the many nuanced reasons why these two groups are struggling in different ways than their predecessors. Taking a feminist and intersectional
lens, Dr. Cook shares her own struggles with anxiety and provides easy, actionable steps to ride the waves of anxiety rather than constantly swimming against them. This relatable, honest, and information-packed book incorporates thorough, evidence-backed psychological research and diverse
client experiences to illustrate a broad range of presentations of anxiety and help readers gain insight into their own stressors and effectively work through anxiety.

I listened to this as an audiobook and it was the author's voice and unfortunately it drove me insane. She used an almost baby talk voice. I also just didn't find it very informative compared to anything else I have already heard or read.......more
