CHILL & SPILL

Chill & Spill is a therapeutic, guided journal that benefits kids dealing with overwhelming stressors such as illness, death, abuse, homelessness, and more. From the survivors of disaster to children of divorce, Chill & Spill helps teens and ‘tweens convey both their suffering and strength, reducing the symptoms of trauma, facilitating healing, promoting coping skills and building self-confidence.

Chill & Spill is effective because it gives youth a safe place for self-expression. It allows them to become active participants in their own healing, to communicate grief and loss, and to see themselves as survivors rather than victims – a critical step in trauma recovery. It works because it is an accessible and immediate resource and is based in the principals of cognitive behavioral, narrative and art therapies.

Chill & Spill underwent a year-long evaluation study to discover the benefits of its use with high-risk youth and the professionals that serve them. Follow the links for more information:
