Are you a professional looking for a creative and effective way to teach kids about resilience while managing their stress and anxiety?
Do kids seek your help as they struggle with academic demands, peer pressure, and family challenges all while fending off the competing interests of the digital age?
If you're like the teachers, school counselors, psychologists, social workers and other professionals in our community, you need tried and true resources that will work. Most importantly you need to have something kids will relate to or they may just resort to the old standby line...
What is GoZen!?
GoZen! follows the principle that emotional well-being can be cultivated through practice. We believe feeling good is a skill! We offer online educational programs and tools designed to give professionals what they need to arm kids with essential life skills to not only manage anxiety, but to live with deeper engagement and purpose.
Our innovative approach is centered on animated videos that make it fun to learn. We teach everything from the science behind why we worry to specific techniques for overcoming anxiety and discovering your strengths.
- Eight fully animated programs featuring over 275 animations, worksheets, and lesson plans that help kids bust anxiety and negative thoughts as well as cultivate strengths, resilience, and confidence
- Used by over 8500 private practice professionals and 5500 schools around the world to help students with anxiety, resilience building, emotional intelligence and more
- Applicable to kids, tweens & teens
- Backed by scientific research in Applied Positive Psychology & Cognitive Behavior Therapy
What makes GoZen! different?
It's simple: Original animations.
You know how incredibly difficult it can be to engage a child or teen, especially when dealing with lofty therapeutic concepts. Even older children can quickly get bored or distracted, secretly wanting to pull out their screens and escape.
That’s why at GoZen!, we’ve built our resilience programs from the ground up using original animations. There’s no doubt about it: animation holds real power. It’s colorful, accessible and non-threatening. They help kids identify what is going on "inside" their bodies and minds and provide tools to help them move through their issues. Our programs tap into the power of animation to not just entertain children but to educate them.
What is the best age for GoZen!?
Our Gozen! Programs can be used for kids ages 7-15 years old (yes, you read that age range correctly!). We do not offer different programs for different ages. Some of the characters in the programs might be geared more for teens and others more for younger ages. However, the basic skills and concepts being taught in all of our programs can be used for any age - even adults! The earlier kids learn techniques and skills based in positive psychology, the easier it is for them to handle issues they will face later in life.
What do the programs teach?
The GoZen! program suite teaches kids essential social and emotional learning skills through story, adventure, and interactive practice all wrapped up into animations. There are 8 different programs included in the pro package. Here are just some of the things kids learn across those programs:
- Resilient thoughts: Learn to catch, check, collect, challenge, and change worrisome, negative, or looping thoughts.
- Mindfulness: Discover how to go from asking constant "What if" questions to coming back to "What is" going on in the present moment.
- Anxiety relief: Master research-based skills to thwart general anxiety, stress, test anxiety, and perfectionist tendencies.
- Panic relief: Take adventures to uncover the research-based secrets behind ending panic attacks.
- Emotional Intelligence: Dive into their inner emotional world to expand self-awareness of emotions, what they mean, and how to navigate them.
- Impulse Control: Embrace many methodologies to pause before they react to a trigger or event.
- Self-compassion: See and practice techniques of speaking to themselves as they would a friend.
- Conquering OCD: Learn the secrets behind breaking the OCD cycle (for kids experiencing OCD).
- Optimism: Unravel the research-based techniques to practice realistic optimism.
- Strengths: Identify and apply their character strengths across domains of their life.
- Kids are armed with essential life skills embedded across programs including hundreds of animations, worksheets, key learning points, discussion questions, and interactive practice.

GoZen! is nothing short of great. In simple language, the animated characters explain what anxiety is, how the brain works in response to anxiety, and ways to change your thinking so that you are in charge of your thoughts and feelings.
From kids with normal worries and fears to those who suffer from anxiety, this program works.

I absolutely LOVE the GoZen! program. As a specialist in CBT for anxiety and related disorders, I have not come across a program until seeing yours that has been even remotely as well executed, clinically sound, and engaging as GoZen!
I am so pleased to have added it to my library of clinical tools and eagerly await anything else you may release.

I am always looking for ways to grab students’ attention and find meaningful ways to explain key therapeutic concepts. The GoZen! videos have helped engage even some of my more challenging students. The humor and relatability of the characters help children feel more at ease and ready to discuss their experiences.
I have used this program with both elementary and middle school. It provides a comprehensive understanding of anxiety and strategies to manage this uncomfortable emotion. It provides a complete curriculum, but I have also used segments to augment my own lessons. It has been a great addition to my groups and a powerful tool in my arsenal.

As a parent of children who struggle with anxiety and a mental health clinician working with many clients who also struggle with anxiety, I have found GoZen! to be informed by empirical research, accessible to both children and adults, engaging and interesting and most importantly, effective.
This is the first program that has provided tools my children readily understand and use on their own. The creators of GoZen! brilliantly combine likable, amusing characters whose struggles validate the experiences of many children, with the latest in brain science research on effective anxiety treatment.

GoZen! has transformed research-based concepts into fun and multisensory learning modules and workbooks that are ideal for teachers and students. Thank you for sharing your words with my audience. The products you have already created are both brilliant and magical. I can’t wait to see what you create next.

How do I start using GoZen!?
Imagine supplementing your own guidance with the power of animations to boost the learning process. Our programs are turn-key and provide everything you need for thorough teaching from lesson plans, key learning points, questions, worksheets, posters to even personalized certificates.
GoZen! in Classrooms
Many educators blend programs into their curriculum once per week for 15-25 minutes. Because you can show entire modules or single animations, GoZen! flexibly fits your needs.
How do you engage the class in the animations? Easy, just push play. Leave the rest up to us.
GoZen! in Private Practice
Trying to teach a client or student about the flight-or-fight response to stress? Want to engage them in a deep breathing exercise? Supplement a counseling or therapy session with videos!
Handpick several animations in advance, or go through our animated programs module by module with kids in your office.
GoZen! for Small Group Activities
Use GoZen! at camp, after school or in other small group settings. Project videos or share a screen to show animations from the GoZen! programs in small group settings.
As a teacher, therapist, or coach, you can stream the videos from anywhere with an internet connection. Take a few minutes from one of your group activities to share some lessons and skills that kids can use for the rest of their life.
GoZen! for Individual Students/Clients

Just mention it at the time of purchase and we will get you all set up!
