Calming Your Anxious Child: Words to Say and Things to Do

This book excerpt details a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)-based approach, the 7-Step TRAINOR Method, for treating childhood anxiety disorders. The method emphasizes parental involvement, teaching parents strategies to help their children manage anxiety through gradual exposure and cognitive restructuring. Several case studies illustrate the application of the method to various anxiety presentations, including generalized anxiety disorder, selective mutism, separation anxiety, specific phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and tic disorders. The text also discusses the role of medication, suggesting it as a supplementary treatment for severe cases, and offers guidance on seeking professional help and navigating school accommodations.
