SUMMARY:Breaking Free of Child Anxiety and OCD Book Club (K-5th Grade)
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Youth Council\, Kim Zemo LCSW\, and Vanessa Elias Certified Parent Coach will host a Zoom book club to discuss Dr. Eli R. Lebowitz’s groundbreaking book and ways parents and caregivers can help alleviate their children’s anxiety by changing the way they themselves respond to their children’s symptoms. \nBreaking Free of Child Anxiety and OCD: A Scientifically Proven Program for Parents by Eli R. Lebowitz\, PhD is the first and only book to provide a completely parent-based treatment program for child and adolescent anxiety.  Parents will learn how to alleviate their children’s anxiety by changing the way they themselves respond to their children’s behavior. Instead\, parents are shown how to replace their own accommodating behaviors (which allow anxiety to flourish) with supportive responses that demonstrate both acceptance of children’s difficulties and confidence in their ability to cope.  From understanding child anxiety and OCD\, to learning how to talk with an anxious child\, to avoiding common traps and pitfalls (such as being overly protective or demanding) to identify the ways in which parents have been enabling a child’s anxious behaviors\, this book is full of detailed guidance and practical suggestions. \nEmail with the subject “Register for K-5th Book Club” to register.
