Anxious Kids, Anxious Parents: 

Emotionally Equipping Our Kids: Skills We Can (and Should!) Teach Our Children

Lynn Lyons, LICSW, Expert & Author 

Join us for a program with Lynn Lyons, author of the book “Anxious Kids, Anxious Parents.”  This is a return engagement as we had many requests for Ms. Lyons to come back after her successful (and packed) program of previous years! 

Ms. Lyons is a popular speaker on the topic of anxiety in children.  

  • Anxiety impairs daily functioning and hinders the overall development of children and youth. From excessive shyness and reassurance seeking, to panic attacks, school phobia, test anxiety, obsessive or compulsive behavior, anxiety can manifest itself in a myriad of ways.
  • Join us for a presentation for parents on the skills we can teach our children to emotionally equip them so that they can grow and flourish.
