This is also a great way to get closer to those at home with you.  *Special discount for 1st edition due to a few typos $17 (tax included) + $5 shipping/handling.

All S.E.T. for the Land of Uncertainty - Deck

This is the big deck-only version (no board or tokens) that lends itself especially well to virtual group and individual sessions where the focus is supporting a child (6-12++) who has a seriously ill loved-one. These cards teach resiliency and coping through S.E.T. literacy (Somatic, Emotional and Thought). These are made into 3 decks of 75 cards: Growth cards (S.- somatic) teach coping practices, Heart cards (E. emotion) promote empathy, validation and communication, and Compass cards (T. thought) provide bite-sized psychoeducation. Easy to play: shuffle well and pick a card. Because the heart cards have some intensity, the other two cards help titrate with practices and thinking. Requires an adult therapist/parent/helper to facilitate.  First ed. Discounted due to a handful of typos. $29.94 tax included + shipping $5[button link=”

A game to support kids through the serious illness of a loved-one (ages 5-12+)

Created by Jennifer Allen, LMFT-ATR-BC and  Charles Ahern, Ph.D

A colorful board game shaped as a map, The Land of Uncertainty reflects the journey of ups and downs implicit to a child’s experience of having a loved one with a serious illness. There are four main quadrants on the map representing common experiences in anticipator grief: the hope-worry roller coaster, riding the waves of emotions, the confusion cave, and the stuck swamp.

Designed in accordance with both clinical and neuropsychological principles the Land of Uncertainty addresses the experience of anticipatory grief and promotes the child in coping and growth in the midst of this experience. There are 3 decks of cards that support S.E.T. literacy: which includes Somatic, Emotion and Thought.  As they develop S.E.T. literacy, children are better equipped for healthy coping and long-term resilience and growth.
