Therapy Quest

Autor Janina Scarlet Ilustrat de Vince Alvendia
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 ian 2018
Did you ever want to be a hero? Have you ever dreamed of going on an epic quest to destroy monsters, defeat evil forces and fly on the back of a dragon?

When you are spirited away to the world of Here, you find yourself proclaimed the Chosen One - the hero everyone is relying on to defeat the evil sorceress Mallena before she destroys life as we know it. But you don't feel like a hero, do you? Don't worry, most heroes don't.

If you choose to accept this quest, you will have an opportunity to learn the skills that you need and put together a crew of loyal companions to help you along the way. The skills are based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which has been shown to help people overcome depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pain, addiction disorders and many other common problems.

This interactive, new self-help book transports you to a fantasy world where every decision you make will influence the outcome of your journey. Danger, loss and strange creatures await, but also excitement, adventure and life-long friendships, which no curses can break. This book is your call to arms, an invitation to be the hero in your own story.
