Anxiety or Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders are common in youth and children. Severe anxiety symptoms can affect academics, peer and family relationships and future emotional health in adulthood. Most children and youth with anxiety symptoms also have comorbid difficulties (for example attention difficulties in addition to anxiety symptoms). Therefore, at Scribble Psychology, we utilize tools from cognitive-behavioural therapy to identify thought patterns, physical reactions and behaviour responses that increase the anxiety symptoms and create a systematic plan to reduce anxiety symptoms along with comorbid symptoms, if any, and improve functioning at home, school and with friends.
