Created by two licensed mental health professionals – Jenna Sumner, LPC and Kristin McCormick, LCSW – who wanted to find a way to reach families beyond the counseling office and provide families with new sets of resources. As therapists and educators, we are seeing children and teens experiencing more stress than ever before; and many report not knowing how to manage their stress in healthy ways. The UPside Delivered boxes and products were designed with this in mind. Each box provides some education to parents about the how and why these techniques work, yet also supply the practical tools for immediate use to help children manage stress.

A keyring of cards with various emotions and strategies to use. The keyring allows this tool to be easily transported with you, where ever you go.

The Find Your Feelings Box can be a stand alone box but also builds upon the lessons provided in the Begin Box. This box gives children the tools and techniques to further understand the connection between their thoughts and feelings. By learning to identify, name, and allow ALL of their feelings, children learn that it’s okay to open up and accept their feelings. Starting with the Story of Tomorrow, and the Fox Feelings Cards, there are lots of ways to Find Your Feelings!

Journals and books to help children (and adults) navigate the various emotions that occur throughout the day. From anxiety to sadness to joy, there is book or journal to help guide you through it.
