Counseling children experiencing anxiety
Updated: Jun 14, 2021

Anxiety is distressing at any age. For children, anxious symptoms can affect the functioning and dynamics at home. Part of supporting children involves integrating tools that engage caregivers. Setting the expectation from the beginning of treatment helps to keep families engaged and can help to ensure that the child has adults who are reinforcing healthy anxiety management techniques. In this video, I share a bit about how I work with children who experience anxiety.
