Understanding and Managing Anxiety

Is your child experiencing feelings of anxiety? Are you wondering how you can best support them?

This programme is all about getting to grips with anxiety. It is a three part workshop spread out over approximately three hour long videos. Ideally, you would complete one video each week, so that you can practice some of the material between sessions.

Workshop outline:

• The first session will focus on understanding anxiety, what is it, where it comes from and how it might affect our child and you as a parent.
• The second session will then look at using lots of strategies to help our child to work through anxious feelings, we consider the role of play, connection, rewards, praise and exposure tasks.
• The third session is all about understanding childhood worry in more detail and considering how to manage worry as it arises each day so that we empower children to feel a sense of control over their worry….as well as parents feeling they can handle worry in our child as it arises.

Parents complete this instant access programme in their own time by watching the prerecorded videos. There is also the option to add yourself to an online chat forum with other participants which some parents find helpful.
