TAKING CONTROL OF MY WORRIES

This series of sessions is written for the child (and parent) who is showing anxious behaviours.

The aim will be to educate children around triggers in the school and home  environment, an understanding of anxiety and the brain, the negative bias brain, physical feelings associated with anxiety and building a toolbox of coping and calming strategies. We shall also be introducing self-esteem building resources during the duration. There will be guided practical activities to consolidate the child’s understanding.

The recordings will be delivered weekly over a course of 6 weeks, one per week, commencing 28 October 2024. However, the recordings will remain live for a period of one year and parents/child can access in their own time and pace, although there will be weekly tasks to embed the content of the session.

There will also be educational posts and links, suitable for child and parent. We aim to equip parents as well as the child to manage the situation.

Initial resource packs and access arrangements for the private Facebook group will be sent out prior to 28 October 2024 or upon booking if after this date – parent/s will need access to a printer. Further resources will be uploaded to the group as files for downloading.

There will also be the opportunity for parents to ask questions and seek advice in the group or via email.

Niki has worked with many young people through the years with good impact and writes interventions which are delivered worldwide to educate children in emotional regulation.
