This is a 30 minute workshop designed to give parents tools to help your children deal with anxiety.

This event is for parents of older kids (13ish and up). We will cover:

• Techniques you can implement right away to make talking about and dealing with anxiety easier for your kiddos
• Common types of anxiety for older kids, red flags, what's developmentally appropriate - or when to seek more help
• Help with struggles related to things like: social anxiety, worry about "adulting," school pressure, relationship drama, dealing with scary world events, and more.

Come to this parenting workshop and get practical, actionable techniques and language to use. I aim to add to your toolbox and help you help your kids diminish the negative effect anxiety might have on their lives.

I am a licensed therapist and author of Connect with Courage. I will be providing resources and reassurance for you. My goal is to give you concrete solutions and exercises that will help your whole family right away!
