Does your child worry and become anxious?
Often when children become anxious its hard to know what to do for the best. Do we ignore it, reassure them or hope its a phase they will grow out of?
Come along and sit in on our Managing Anxiety online workshop
What happens at a Managing Anxiety workshop?
Our workshops are evidence based, safe, understandable and fun. Come along and join our Clinical Director as she explains :
Our two cartoon elves and how they help us understand our physical and mental health. (there is a spotting exercise to do throughout the session- how many elves can you spot? )
What anxiety is- what causes it and what does it feel like
What can help- practical ideas and interventions you can take away and use
How to use our 3 step plan to manage anxiety effectively.
There is alot of information within the session so we do recommend parents purchase a Managing Anxiety resource pack from our shop to support the learning. It contains all the interventions and tools we discuss.
If you can its best if you can have your camera on, its much nicer than talking to screens.
The session is for both parents and children to come along to and is mainly us sharing information with you. We ask you to talk to only the people at your home who you logged in with, and occasionally pop something in the chat. But we don’t need you to talk in the group.
There is an opportunity to ask our Clinical director questions at the end.
What have others said about this workshop?
We do ask parents to complete a short evaluation form at the end of the workshop. From this we are able to see how effective our workshops are and what needs more information or changing.
We have now been running the Anxiety workshop for 5 years, it is one of our most popular workshops.
