We know that today in 2021, more children and teens are experiencing anxiety and stress and that this anxiety can be crippling for children and their parents. A safe place to gain the opportunity to share their worries and fears, develop coping strategies and skills, and ultimately inner strength can be life-changing for children.

We know that today in 2021, more children and teens are experiencing anxiety and stress and that this anxiety can be crippling for children and their parents. A safe place to gain the opportunity to share their worries and fears, develop coping strategies and skills, and ultimately inner strength can be life-changing for children.  During the group sessions, we will focus on understanding what and how anxiety develops, how to recognize and then change those thoughts, cope with the worries and fears that come up to help alleviate the symptoms of participants. This will be an interactive group where students will practice these new skills as they learn them.

Because anxiety is an individualized and complex subject stemming from various sources, we will not be digging into the root causes of each student's worry. However, participants in the group will be asked to think of personal fears and then can choose to share during the sessions if they are comfortable doing so.

Session Outline:

      • Session 1 – Introductions & How Anxiety Happens
      • Session 2 - What We Worry About
      • Session 3 - Flipping Negative Thoughts
      • Session 4 - Recognizing My Anxiety
      • Session 5 - Coping With Worries
      • Session 6 - What Is In My Control
