Parents of Anxious Children Group

Jacquelyn Blocher, a postdoctoral fellow in child psychology at the Center for Anxiety, will be offering a 4-session group for parents who want to learn how to support their anxious child and avoid accommodating behaviors that make anxiety worse. This group will combine the best elements of several evidence based principles in a unique series of interventions to address the needs of parents and their anxious children.

The topics of the four sessions will be: 1) introduction to anxiety 2) anxiety accommodation, 3) protection vs. support, and 4) strategies for tolerating anxiety
