Anxiety

Anxiety Workshop for Parents!

Anxiety has become a growing issue in our changing world, especially with increasing terrorism, violence and more.  Parents often struggle to manage anxiety that develops in their children. While occasional anxiety is normal, constant anxiety can look a lot more like fear. Fear is being afraid of something real. Anxiety can become irrational and an everyday part of a child’s life, prohibiting them from truly enjoying childhood.  If you are a parent and are confused about how to help your child grow beyond their anxiety, you are not alone.  

In this workshop, parents will learn skills to mitigate anxiety and help their children navigate anxiety.

-Is your child feeling too much anxiety?

-Are you modeling too much anxiety?
