Tales of the Resilient Forest

A Universe Built for Healing

Five animal friends. One resilient forest. A world of tools for children who have been through hard things.

The Brave Friends

Five friends. Five skills. One forest.

Each character in the Resilient Forest represents a foundational TF-CBT skill — a gentle way for children to discover that what they feel has a name, and that healing has steps.
