Helping Children Who are Anxious or Obsessional

Helping Children Who are Anxious or Obsessional is a guidebook designed to assist children with a variety of concerns and challenges. It is especially aimed at children who:

• are insecure or worry excessively, suffering from phobias or nightmares;
• struggle to concentrate, unable to let go and have fun;
• have experienced trauma or appear unnaturally good, like little adults;
• use order and routine as coping mechanisms for managing 'messy' feelings;
• withdraw into dullness as a means of navigating their existence in the world;
• and develop obsessive-compulsive behaviour to fend off overwhelming emotions.
