Presenters: Sheri Martin Soosaar
Signs of anxiety are increasingly present in children attending occupational therapy services. Do you know what to watch for and how to help a child limit the number of tasks in which they feel anxious? This webinar will review how anxiety presents itself in the school-aged child, investigate the potential triggers for anxiety, and then explore ways to help the child and/or parent develop a functional toolkit that they can use in their everyday life to help manage this anxiety. The interventions are structured based on a holistic approach looking at how the child’s personal characteristics, the environment and the occupations interact and affect the presence of anxiety.
After taking part in this webinar, participants will:
- Describe how anxiety manifests itself in children.
- Recognize typical triggers for anxiety in children.
- Implement at least 3strategies in their occupational therapy practice to help children and their families cope with anxiety.
