Anxiety is the number one mental health issue facing children and youthand with recent global health events it’s even more pressing. We know many caregivers an...d professionals are at home, and due to a variety of restrictions, attending a live, in-person event is not an option. To answer this need we have decided, for the first time ever, to live-telecast our full-day workshop across Canada. We're here to empower caregivers and professionals, and to give them the skills and understanding to help children overcome this obstacle and begin to thrive. Anxiety has many faces, and at this workshop parents, caregivers, and professionals will learn about the psychological and physiological roots of anxiety, why it is on the rise in our children, and what to do to help children better manage it. This course has a holistic* and strength-based approach that focusses on what we as caretakers, parents, and professionals can do vs. stigmatizing children who are struggling. Various facets of the child's environment will be explored that can contribute to a child's emotional struggles. We will be exploring the research and theory research and theory in the field of mental health, education, attachment, naturopathic medicine, and interpersonal neurobiology will be explored. Attendees will be given resources and direct tools to help their child, or the children they work with, overcome this emotional obstacle. This workshop aims to enlighten, empower, and inspire those who take care of our children. OBJECTIVES: Identify neurobiological and physiological mechanisms that underlie anxiety Describe ways in which parenting styles can contribute to anxiety in children Implement a variety of emotion regulation strategies Recognize environmental and societal factors that contribute towards the increase in anxiety amongst children Understand pharmacological and naturopathic treatment options INSTRUCTOR: Tania Johnson, Registered Psychologist, Co-Founder of the Institute of Child Psychology.
