Tips for helping your anxious child
Show love and care always. But within that, ask yourself , truthfully, can my child do this on his/her own.
Identify what your child is afraid of, and encourage your child to express their fears.
Always use small steps.
Rewards must be given as soon as possible after your child has performed the steps.
Be consistent. It takes dedication, practice and patience for the best results.
EveryDay Counselling
When working with children under 10 we talk and draw. It is fun as we draw feelings, such as fear, anxiety and sadness, we also draw what it feels like to be loved and hugged and to be happy.
It is not all serious work we do have fun!
Other times we may use some toys and miniature figures that I have to help tell the story that needs to be told.
During each session, I use many different counselling techniques.
Some include:
- Individual Therapy
- Art Therapy
- Strength based Therapy
- Narrative Therapy
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
- Solution focused Therapy
- Existential Therapy
- Family Therapy
Typical issues that may bring a child to therapy:
Anxiety
Helping your child deal with stress
Transitions from school to school or town to town
Separation/divorce of parents
Bullying
Self Esteem
Night Terrors
