College Student Wellness Journal | Clinician-Designed | ZipHealthy

College is supposed to be the best years of your life — so why does it sometimes feel like the hardest? This clinician-designed journal meets you in the real experience of college: the pressure, the loneliness, the identity questions, and the growth that happens when you finally have space to be honest.

Designed by Stephen Velasquez, MBA, MSW, LCSW — a licensed clinical social worker with over 16 years of clinical experience — this 76-page guided journal draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), attachment theory, exposure therapy principles, mindfulness, and values-based exercises.
