ID, UNITED STATES, March 12, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Books to Life Marketing proudly announces the release of Combating Teen Anxiety: Teen-Parent Communication Journal, a ground-breaking guide by Gina Nelson, LCSW, designed to create a safe space for parents and teens to communicate about difficult topics while building emotional awareness, empathy, and trust.
“I aspire to create a safe place for moms and teens to communicate about difficult topics through
nondefensive language prompts that create generous intention and respect for each other.”
— Gina Nelson, LCSW, Author of Combating Teen Anxiety: Teen-Parent Communication Journal
About the Author
Gina Nelson has over 25 years of experience as a clinical social worker, specializing in medical trauma, grief, and complex family dynamics. A Certified EMDR Therapist and Daring Way Trained Facilitator™, she has dedicated her career to helping clients heal childhood relational wounds and develop lasting emotional resilience. Combining her professional expertise with her personal journey raising three children, including supporting her son through his gender transition, Gina Nelson brings a unique, compassionate, and authentic perspective to teen-parent communication.
Her previous work includes the proven 10-step online program Combating Teen Anxiety, designed for both teens and parents. While the program supports teens in managing stress and building confidence in their personal, social, and academic lives, it is specifically structured to equip parents with practical strategies to regulate their own emotions. By learning these tools, parents are better prepared to respond calmly, guide effectively, and support their teen’s emotional growth and anxiety management.
This latest journal expands on that foundation, offering families a structured and safe way to engage in meaningful conversations around sensitive topics.
