Are worry thoughts stopping your child in their tracks and keeping them from fun?

The CDC estimates that 7% of children ages 3-17 have been diagnosed with anxiety. 

Anxiety is the emotion we feel when we are faced with PERCEIVED danger.

Help your child identify where they are feeling worries in their body. Those feelings are anxiety.

To learn that their fears don’t come true, your child must put themselves in the feared situation.

Each time we avoid, we are saying to anxiety, “I believe you.” This makes it grow bigger.

The symptoms of anxiety can be very tricky. This is because, our kids can’t always identify their worries.
