Parenting a child who experiences anxiety can be challenging, confusing, and emotionally draining – for both child and parent.
🍃 Join us for our next Parenting Workshop: Supporting Your Anxious Child, facilitated by Jess Arday-Wild, an Accredited Mental Health Social Worker and Clinical Family Therapist, at Lavender House Toowoomba.
* Sunday 29/3/26: in-person Morning Event (10-11.30am)
* Thursday 9/4/26: online Evening Event (6.30-8pm)
🍃 This 90-minute workshop offers parents and caregivers a compassionate and evidence-based framework for understanding and responding to children’s anxiety through an attachment and brain-based lens.
🍃 Alongside a group of like-minded adults, we’ll explore:
* The neurobiology of anxiety – what’s happening in the brain and body when children feel anxious
* How attachment and co-regulation help children feel safe and manage big emotions
* The anxiety cycle and how avoidance can inadvertently keep anxiety going
* Practical strategies to support your child, including:
* Simple breathing and grounding techniques
* Emotion coaching to build your child’s emotional awareness and resilience
* Reducing reassurance-seeking while maintaining connection and support
* Building healthy habits for wellbeing – sleep, routines, movement, and balance
🍃 This psychoeducational workshop integrates insights from Circle of Security Parenting (COS-P) principles and current research in child development, attachment theory, and neuroscience. Parents and caregivers will leave with a deeper understanding of how anxiety shows up in children, what helps (and what doesn’t), and practical tools they can start using right away. You’ll also receive a takeaway resource list for further reading and support, along with suggested community and professional resources for ongoing help.
