Supporting Anxious Children

Would you like to gain a greater understanding of anxiety and learn some helpful strategies to support your child?

 Learning to cope with anxiety, stress and fear, whilst a normal part of your child’s development, can be deeply challenging not only for children but also for parents and the family unit as a whole. 

Participants will: 

• Develop strategies to support children through understanding the role of anxiety and normal childhood development.
• Identify the signs and symptoms in your child.
• Discover relaxation and mindfulness techniques.
• Learn where to go for more help and support.

Sessions available for parents/carers of early years, primary and secondary aged children.
