A brief description about this Activity.
Decades of research show that parenting practices are associated with children’s resilience (and conversely with risk for behavioral and emotional problems) and that parenting is malleable. That is, evidence-based, effective parenting interventions change parenting practices and create cascading effects across the family system: improved parenting strengthens parental and child mental health, and family wellbeing. Parental anxiety (and depression) is strongly associated with an offspring’s risk for anxiety (and depression) but most treatment for childhood anxiety focuses on children alone. Yet effective parenting – and specifically, effective emotion socialization – reduces children’s risk for anxiety, and helps children learn to regulate and respond to ‘big’ negative emotions. In this webinar, Dr Gewirtz reviews what is known about parenting and childhood anxiety, provides strategies to help parents identify and respond to their own worries, and teaches providers to help parents help their children with scary events in today’s world. “Essential conversations” are the key tool to helping parents be present and engaged to support their anxious children while also effectively regulating their own adult emotions. Dr. Gewirtz will present an interactive webinar focused on providing therapeutic tools to support effective parenting for anxious parents and their worried children. In today’s fast-paced world, in which children often have too much intense and constant knowledge at their fingertips, Gewirtz provide tools for parents to reflect on and support their worried children.
