[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have been in therapy for almost two months and the progress I've seen is so amazing. My daughter has generalized anxiety as do I. I have done a lot of therapy over the years and I'll say I'm humbled by how much I'm leaning from the lens of a parent.

We are doing ERP - exposure and response prevention. It's evidence based and has very good outcomes.

The therapist also has us reading a booked called "Helping your anxious child" and we do worksheets and homework weekly. We are very invested.

I cried to the therapist in the parent intake meeting out of fear I was making it a thing by taking her to therapy or she was started a 40 year relationship with therapy. I couldn't feel more different now and am so glad we made the decision to go.

She also agrees and says how much it's helped her. Good luck - just wanted to share a positive outcome! [/quote]

+1 for ERP - 6/7 year old daughter with OCD/anxiety made dramatic progress in 3 months with this approach

Also check out SPACE program which is focused on what parents can do[/quote]
