Rebekah Lipp is an author, entrepreneur and mental health advocate residing in New Zealand. She co-wrote Finding Gratitude (Quarto, 2019). Her personal journey with anxiety, depression and borderline personality disorder inspired her work, alongside a passion to bring awareness to children’s mental health, emotional well-being and anxiety. After experiencing two years of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) following a period of crisis in her early twenties, she felt there was a real gap in what professionals knew and what parents and teachers needed to know regarding emotional regulation. With a gentle parenting approach, Rebekah feels that all children have genius within them and if we act out of a place of compassion, kindness and love, we will see our children thrive.
