ONE STEP AT A TIME : Parent Support for Childhood Anxiety
This sounds like an amazing and worthwhile opportunity. I would thoroughly recommend looking into this for any parents of children experiencing any number of anxiety-related issues.
Does your child experience any of the following symptoms related to anxiety?
• Difficulties sleeping at night due to worries
• Fears and phobias
• Difficulty separating from you or worrying about parental safety
• Trouble sleeping alone in their bed
• Fear of the dark
• Scared of lifts, trains, and people
• Fear of dogs and other animals
• Excessive worry and constant reassurance seeking
• Fear of germs and other health problems
If so, the Clinicians at Swinburne University have developed a program to help parents manage childhood anxiety in children aged 6-11 years that may suit your requirements for support. Some sessions are with both parent and child, while others are parent only.
- Also at only $20 per session and/or an assessment session, it is both convenient (online) and inexpensive!
Treatment consists of seven therapy sessions plus one assessment session. It aims to equip parents with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy strategies to help manage and assist their child's anxiety.
