If you have a child who struggles with anxiety, you need fast-acting solutions you can easily use right away to help you and your child face fears and worries and find calm. Written by a psychologist and expert in childhood anxiety, this easy-to-use guide offers proven-effective cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies and exposure skills—the gold standard treatments for anxiety problems—that you can use at home, in social settings, or anywhere anxiety takes hold.

Anxiety Relief for Kids provides everything you need to help your child overcome anxiety and avoidance. You'll find a quick overview and explanation of the different types of anxiety disorders—such as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety disorder (SAD) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). You'll learn to identify what triggers your child's anxiety, and understand how the safety behaviors they rely on—including avoidance, excessive reassurance seeking, and checking—actually feed and maintain their anxiety.

In this second edition, you'll also find a wealth of new information on dealing with perfectionist behaviors, anxiety about natural disasters and global threats, and the role of social media and digital communication in childhood anxiety. No matter your child's specific fears or worries, you'll learn how to use the principles of CBT to help your child thrive.

If your child has an anxiety disorder, simple, everyday activities can be a real challenge. The practical solutions in this book will help you deal with your child's anxiety when it happens, so you can restore balance and order to both your lives.
