Tracking # 20-1287868
Course overview
We all want kids to be successful, safe, and secure, but such good intentions are having unintended consequences. Three societal ingredients ... a hyper-academic mindset, preoccupation with safety, and a tech-obsessed society ... are fueling childhood anxiety, leaving kids fearful, avoidant, and ill-equipped for adulthood. Watch child psychologist Steve O'Brien, Psy.D., and his practical strategies as he presents a three-level treatment model for childhood anxiety using targeted, evidence-based therapies to: Connect with and "rewire" anxious children and families Provide child-friendly instruction about anxiety and the brain Promote self-expression and healthy coping in shut-down kids Reduce debilitating social anxiety in adolescents Treat technology-related worries, obsessions, and compulsions Develop anxiety-free safety plans for distressed kids and parents Don't miss out on this cutting-edge program for equipping and empowering kids to not only cope with anxiety, but to thrive as they develop a growing sense of both competence and confidence! Best of all, upon completion of this training, you'll be eligible for Certification in Child and Adolescent Anxiety through Evergreen Certifications. Certification lets colleagues, employers, and clients know that you've invested the extra time and effort necessary to understand the complexities of child and adolescent anxiety counseling. Professional standards apply.
