Mixed Emotions Therapy Board Game

A colorful Mixed Emotions board depicts 72 "feeling words" in 4 categories. Ninety cards describe situations that might evoke "mixed emotions". Sixty transparent chips can be used to help identify emotions.

Mixed Emotions Therapy Board Game helps players to:
  • Recognize and name emotions; more accurately identify emotions
  • Discover "hidden" emotions
  • Indicate relative intensity of various emotions
This can be used as a simple "check in" activity at the start of a counseling session. Just invite the client to "show me how you feel". The client can then use the color-coded chips to indicate recent emotions and discuss the situations that gave rise to those emotions.

Also included are instructions for a more structured activity: using the cards, the player reacts to situations in which children, teens and adults face situations that might evoke "mixed emotions". In identifying emotions that others might feel in these situations, players learn to more accurately identify emotions.

The materials can also be used for a variety of cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques; suggestions are included.
