CHILDREN'S ANXIETY MANAGEMENT GROUP
Even little kids can have a big fear, but with help they can face it.
Kids ages 5-7 need help from parents and professionals when severe anxiety gets in the way of eating, sleeping, or going to school. For example:
- The child can't enjoy playing because the child checks, counts, or "confesses" scary thoughts to parents 1+ hour per day
- The child is unable to sleep enough, due to fear of "the dark," monsters, bugs, dogs, or scary characters
- The child is unable to eat enough food due to fears about germs, dirt, mold or household cleaners
- The child asks parents over and over for reassurance about their fear
Our Children's Anxiety Management Group will help your child:
- Face fears a little bit at a time, so they can eat, sleep, play, go to school, and enjoy being a kid
- Stop getting bossed around by anxiety, and learn how to boss it back
- Talk with other kids with similar fears and realize they're not "the only one."
One or two parents/caregivers are encouraged to attend this group, at no additional cost, with their child.
