 Years of psychological research tells us that a short cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) program helps anxious children cope better both socially and scholastically as well as avoid a possible lifetime of debilitating emotional distress. Take Action is a CBT based child anxiety treatment program for psychologists and CBT practitioners designed to be easy-to-use, flexible, and robustly effective in both the clinic room and the classroom with individuals or small groups. Friendly sea animal cartoon characters are used to help children learn the anxiety management strategies taught. Take Action teaches children aged 4-7 and 8-12 years helpful ways to cope with and manage anxiety. It is an evidence-based intervention combining recent research on threat-based cognitive biases and maladaptive thinking styles in childhood anxiety disorders with the well-established principles of CBT. |
