Anxiety . . .
Shake Your Shyness
- I'm a little biased about
this site, because its one of my own. First published in 2000, the
site has welcomed over 100,000 visitors and is considered one of the
best resources for information on the topic shyness and social
anxiety on the internet. I maintain the site as part of my
commitment to the provision of pro bono (i.e., free) services to the
community, which with the evolution of the internet has come to mean
the entire world.
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy . . .
Cognitive-Behavioral
Therapy - You may have heard the term
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, but not really known what it meant.
Sponsored by the National Association of Cognitive-Behavioral
Therapists, this site provide a nice summary.
NPR (National Public Radio)
- Don't want to read, try
listening to these online NPR productions on various aspects of
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy.
Relationships
& Dating Skills . . .
Breakups101.com
Strange name for a relationship website, don't you
think? Nevertheless, this site provides links to a host of
websites and articles addressing dating and relationship
issues---some good, some not so good; some selling things and some
providing valuable food for thought. You be the judge. My take
on the site is that the good tips are worth searching through the
not so good tips to find.
Meeting People Skills
This site, sponsored by Thomas Stevens, Ph.D.,
provides a wealth or information and food for thought about dating,
relationships, how and why intimacy develops. It's a great place to
start for looking for tips on how to ask people out, what to do on your first
date and is one of the few sites that actually teaches some of the skills you'll
need to learn if you want to the keep the right partner once you've found
him/her.

Self-Help .

- I stumbled on to this free online book and having been
impressed by the parts I've read so far, I decided to include it as
a resource. Written by Clinical Psychologist, Clayton E.

provides an overview of common
life challenges from anxiety, anger and aggression to dating,
happiness, depression and understanding the way we think about
ourselves. Dr. Tucker-Ladd then goes on to provide a review of
