Making Sense of Anxiety with Colleen Drobot

TOGETHER, the Upper Lynn, Ross Road, Lynn Valley and Boundary Elementary Schools' PACs, are proud to invite you to a presentation from registered counselor and educator Colleen Drobot on:

MAKING SENSE OF ANXIETY IN CHILDREN AND YOUTH

There is currently an epidemic of anxiety affecting students, which can take many forms including clinginess, obsessions, compulsions, phobias, panic, sleep issues, physical illnesses, as well as a host of perplexing behaviours. Today’s world can create many challenges for children and youth with school pressures, peer interactions, family dynamics, negative self-image, perfectionism, and many other stressors that can impede a child’s ability to learn and mature. Whether it’s the natural, episodic worries or more profound and crippling versions of anxiety, registered counsellor Colleen Drobot will help make sense of the roots of anxiety using Dr. Gordon Neufeld’s approach and will suggest ways in which parents and school staff can help support children experiencing anxiety.
