Gentle Ideas to Grow Courage and Calm. Helping Children Manage Anxiety with Confidence

In this workshop, there will be a maximum of 8 people and will focus on learning about anxiety and worry and making some things that you can take away with you and use with your family. We will aim to make the group relaxed and there will be tea/coffee and biscuits available. You will not have to share any details about your family with us, you are welcome to listen and make or talk if you want to. If you find it difficult to attend groups, please contact us by email so we can see how we can support you mhst.info@eastsussex.gov.uk

Anxiety is a normal and a healthy human reaction. When anxiety is mild to moderate, it can often improve performance but sometimes anxiety can become a problem when it interferes with everyday life. This workshop will include practical things to do at home and share with your child, as well as lots of tips and advice to help with managing anxiety and worry and a chance to meet other parents and carers who maybe experiencing similar things to you.
