Is your child constantly battling “what if” thoughts, restlessness, or emotional overload?
Anxiety can show up as irritability, trouble sleeping, stomachaches, avoidance, or even perfectionism—and it’s more common than you think.

Our Calm & Confident: Anxiety Program is designed for children and teens (ages 8+) who struggle with:
✔ Excessive worry or overthinking
✔ Difficulty managing change or uncertainty
✔ Avoidance of school, social situations, or challenges
✔ Physical symptoms like headaches, stomachaches, or racing heart
✔ Trouble calming down once upset

🌱 How this program helps:
Over the course of 4–6 structured sessions, your child will:
• Learn how anxiety works in the brain and body
• Identify triggers and early warning signs
• Practice calming techniques they can actually remember in the moment
• Gain tools to reframe unhelpful thoughts and feel more in control
• Build confidence through real-life application of new skills

Each session is led by a licensed professional counselor in a supportive, child-friendly environment.

Let’s help your child move from anxious to equipped.
