My wife and I have just published a social story for children and adolescents struggling with Emetophobia. The story follows a young girl named Sophie with emetophobia who is faced with the challenge of attending a school trip to a theme-park. The story has some therapy techniques and guidance cleverly woven in, which should help the reader reflect on their own struggles and help them see that the way to overcome their anxiety is to face their fears.
This book can be effectively read and understood independently by teenagers who are confident readers. Younger children may benefit more from reading it through with an adult as this book should help stimulate interesting and helpful discussions. This book has an activity book section containing worksheets and advice on how to face your fears.
Although it is designed for young people, adults suffering from emetophobia may also find the message of the story relatable and useful for standing up to their fears.
