Welcome to Writing for Emotional Balance!

As the author of Writing for Emotional Balance, I have condensed 35 years as a writer and a practicing clinical psychologist into this course.  Writing is not just a way to vent feelings; writing is a tool of psychological skill and development. I hope this course will give you a self-guided format for therapeutic insight and actual change.

Writing for Emotional Balance is a three-month (12 lessons, completed weekly or at your own pace) structured immersion in ideas, resources, and writing exercises that help emotional life feel more manageable, comfortable and rich. After decades of talking to people and encouraging journaling, I’m convinced that’s the heart of what many people seek in their personal writing.

The course is structured around 12 lessons and topics which introduce processes of emotional balance by offering: sequential lessons with brief descriptions of emotion balance skills, an illustrating writing exercise, and follow-up ideas/activities.  You also receive supplemental materials in the form of essays, audio clips, a guided visualization, reflective journaling prompts, as well as weekly quotes and tips. The lessons operationalize psychological skills and utilize a variety of writing techniques. They are delivered weekly in order to give you time to absorb your gains, which are not just information, but personal evolution.

Please know, I am with you through the journey too, and you can contact me with questions or for help with the process, should you wish to.  The best way to reach me is at jacobsbethpen@gmail.com
