Titles in Collection & Description
In The Silent Guides, renowned clinical psychologist Professor Steve Peters offers a powerful framework for understanding the emotional and behavioral development of children and adolescents aged 12 and up. Drawing on neuroscience and decades of clinical experience, this essential guide explains how unconscious beliefs, thoughts, and emotions—our "silent guides"—shape behavior, relationships, and mental well-being.
Written in accessible language for both parents and educators, this book provides practical tools to help young people build emotional resilience, self-awareness, and positive habits. From managing anxiety to improving communication, The Silent Guides empowers adults to support children in becoming confident, healthy individuals.
Whether you're a parent, teacher, or caregiver, this insightful resource will transform the way you understand and respond to the emotional needs of those in your care.
