Ep. 3: Childhood Anxiety Disorders: Part Two - My Child is Afraid of Messes! And Other Anxious Tendencies

Does your kid have very specific (sometimes inconvenient) fears that they can’t quite explain? (Think swimming pools. Or spills. Or the seam of their socks.) Do they clam up when strangers talk to them, despite their boisterous personality at home? And are you wondering what to do when your child wants to stay home from school yet again? In this episode, Dr. Vieira dives into her specialty, anxiety disorders, and how they present in children. Learn what behaviors to watch out for and understand your treatment options so you know what type of therapist to look for. In the last part of the episode, hear questions from real parents, just like you, whose children are struggling with fear and anxiety.
