Would you be a good candidate for our programs? Ask yourself the following questions:

Are you working with kids struggling with anxiety, anger, negative thoughts and other issues that create roadblocks with their academic learning?

Do you want an effective way to help students/clients feel more comfortable about discussing their anxious thoughts and help to normalize their feelings?

Are you “surfing” the internet trying to find creative downloadable materials (worksheets, journals, activity kits, etc.) teaching ways to motivate, relieve stress or be more mindful?

Are you looking for SEL or anxiety resources that are “turn key” and save you valuable time?

Do you need life skill lessons that are interesting, engaging, fun and will totally resonate with your students/clients?

Are you trying to find resources that provide ways to reach all three tier levels or meet your IEP goals?

If you answered YES to one or more of the above, then GoZen! programs would be a great resource for you to begin using!

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 research-based 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 do the programs teach?

Here are just some of the SEL skills kids learn across these 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 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.

Optimism: Unravel the research-based techniques to practice realistic optimism.

Conquering OCD: Learn the secrets behind breaking the OCD cycle (for kids experiencing OCD).

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 and activities.

What is the best age for GoZen!?

Gozen! Programs can be used for kids ages 7-15 years old (yes, you read that age range correctly!).

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 challenges later in life.

Loved by kids and parents.

Trusted and recommended by psychologists.

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.

The GoZen! videos have helped engage even some of my more challenging students.

I am always looking for ways to grab students’ attention and find meaningful ways to explain key therapeutic concepts. 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.

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.

This is the first program that has provided tools my children readily understand and use on their own.

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. 

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.
