What Is GoZen!?

Evidence-Based Social Emotional Learning for Kids & Teens

GoZen! is an award-winning Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program used by thousands of therapists, schools, and families worldwide. Through animated characters, relatable stories, and CBT-based tools, GoZen! teaches children and teens how to manage big feelings and build the resilience skills that will serve them for life.

It's not just another lecture about feelings. It's the kind of program kids actually look forward to — because it meets them in their world.

Why GoZen! Works for NYC Kids

New York City children carry a unique set of pressures — the pace of the city, academic competition, social media, and for many BIPOC children, the added weight of navigating a world that doesn't always feel safe or fair. Standard advice to "just breathe" doesn't cut it.

GoZen! works because it speaks to kids in their language. Through animated characters, children learn that anxiety is not the enemy — it's a normal brain response that they have the power to manage. That insight alone is life-changing for many kids who have been fighting against their own minds for years.

As a BIPOC-centered practice, we deliver these workshops in culturally affirming ways that reflect and honor the communities we serve. Every child deserves to see themselves in the stories being told.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are GoZen! workshops a replacement for therapy?
No. GoZen! is a psychoeducational SEL program — it teaches skills and builds awareness, but it is not therapy or clinical treatment. For children who need individual mental health support, we can discuss a referral to appropriate services.
How long is a GoZen! workshop?
Workshops run 60–120 minutes depending on the program and audience. Multi-session series are also available for schools that want deeper engagement over several weeks.
Are workshops available in Spanish or other languages?
We can accommodate interpreter support for workshops delivered to non-English-speaking communities. Please mention this when you reach out so we can plan accordingly.
What ages are GoZen! programs designed for?
GoZen! programs are designed for children and teens ages 5–18, with content tailored to each developmental stage. We'll recommend the right program based on your group's age range.
How much do workshops cost?
Pricing varies depending on session length, audience size, and whether you're booking a single session or a multi-part series. Please contact us for a custom quote — we're committed to making our workshops as accessible as possible for NYC schools and community organizations.
Can parents attend alongside their children?
Absolutely. We offer family-style workshops where parents and children learn together — which research shows significantly strengthens outcomes. Ask us about our family workshop format when you reach out.

Resilience skills don't develop on their own — they're built. GoZen! workshops make that building engaging, effective, and lasting. Delivered by a GoZen! trained facilitator who truly cares about your community — in person across New York City or virtually throughout New York State.
