What will the course include?

The Anxiety workshop will be held over two weekly sessions. The workshop is designed for parents/carers and will provide information about anxiety in children with ASD, how it might affect them and why (this can include some challenging behaviours).

The workshop aims to improve the confidence of parents/carers in recognising and managing their child's anxiety. We will help you to make an action plan, look at different strategies appropriate for your child and will look at ways that you can introduce these at home.
