The Social Black Belt

Based on over 35 years and 75,000 hours of facilitating psychotherapy, Dr. Christopher Cortman has developed a simple, step-by-step program comprised of 10 psychological truths that can help anyone-young and old alike-gain control over their emotions, change their thought patterns and behaviors, and lead happier and more productive and fulfilling lives. Co-written by high school educator and mentor Michael Keelen, this guide to better living takes specific aim at those who are most often in need of real direction and clarity-today's adolescents and young adults. Through easy and fun prose, relatable anecdotes, and simple instructions and exercises, The Social Black Belt gives young people the skills they need to navigate some of the most difficult social and emotional challenges of their lives and the tools they need to build a solid foundation for their futures.
