By Sana Isaac Powell

Therapy—wherever and whenever you need it.

Pocket Therapy is a lovely, take-anywhere guide to practicing self-care and prioritizing your mental health. From licensed professional counselor Sana Isaac Powell, this deck includes 70 cards with thoughtful therapy practices that are widely applicable and easy to incorporate into everyday life. 

Organized into five categories—Relationships, Mindset, Emotions, Mindfulness, and Self-Love—cards cover topics like setting boundaries around your time, rediscovering things that brought you joy in childhood, and curbing toxic positivity. Each card ends with a clear takeaway, such as a journal prompt, mindfulness exercise, or affirmation, and a booklet provides instructions for using the deck. This practical tool for personal growth can be used alone or alongside a therapy practice and is perfect for anyone who wants to cultivate more balance, self-love, and inner peace.

By addressing mental health in an accessible and unintimidating way, this deck offers a low-stakes entry point to the world of therapy. It's also a helpful complement to an existing therapy practice.
 
TAKE IT ON THE GO: These simple, effective exercises can be done anytime, anywhere. Keep this pocket-sized deck in your car, on your bedside table, or in your bag for easy access whenever you need a moment to recenter yourself or a reminder of your worth.
