A parent-focused guide to recognizing and addressing childhood anxiety

Donna B. Pincus organizes this parenting guide around common ways anxiety can surface in childhood, including sleep difficulties, separation concerns, social anxiety, and panic attacks. It combines help with identifying and understanding these patterns with practical parenting techniques intended to reduce anxiety and encourage brave behavior over time. The book frames anxiety as something that can affect children’s social, academic, and physical development, while keeping its attention on concrete support parents can provide at home. Its central emphasis is building children’s confidence alongside strategies for responding to fear, stress, and anxiety.

Book overview

When our children are born, we do everything we can to make sure they have love, food, clothing, and shelter. But despite all this, one in five children today suffers from a diagnosed anxiety disorder, and countless others suffer from anxiety that interferes with critical social, academic, and physical development. Dr. Donna Pincus, nationally recognized childhood anxiety expert, is here to help.

In Growing Up Brave, Dr. Pincus helps parents identify and understand anxiety in their children, outlines effective and convenient parenting techniques for reducing anxiety, and shows parents how to promote bravery for long-term confidence. From trouble sleeping and separation anxiety to social anxiety or panic attacks, Growing Up Brave provides an essential toolkit for instilling happiness and confidence for childhood and beyond.
