Anxious children may be afraid to be out of their parents' sight; they may refuse to talk except to specific people or under specific circumstances; they may insist on performing tasks such as brushing teeth or getting ready for bed in a rigidly specific way. For many children these difficulties interfere with doing well in school and making friends as well as with daily activities like sleeping, eating, and bathing. Untreated anxiety can have a devastating effect on a child's future emotional, social, academic, and work life. And since most kids don't naturally outgrow anxiety, parents need to know how to help.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eCalming Your Anxious Child\u003c\/i\u003e, Dr. Kathleen Trainor builds on cognitive behavioral therapy to provide practical steps for guiding parents through the process of helping their children manage their anxieties and gain control over their worry-based behaviors. Dr. Trainor's method involves identifying the anxieties and the behaviors, rating them, agreeing on what behaviors to work on changing, identifying strategies for changing behaviors, noting and charting progress, offering incentives, and reinforcing progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining family stories with practical advice and support, \u003ci\u003eCalming Your Anxious Child\u003c\/i\u003e teaches parents and caregivers how to empower their children to overcome their worried thoughts and behaviors. Children who have generalized anxiety, OCD, social anxiety, separation anxiety, phobias, or PTSD can all benefit from Dr. Trainor's method, which also helps parents move from feeling controlled by their child's anxiety to feeling that they are in control of their family's future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kathleen Trainor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1421420104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781421420103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Johns Hopkins University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2016 pg. 63","brand":"Kathleen Trainor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43980332237055,"sku":"9781421420103","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c721174b-c7e4-4d54-9167-42fbef1a2862.jpg?v=1683249319","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/calming-your-anxious-child-kathleen-trainor-9781421420103","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
