Equip teachers with the knowledge and tools needed to address child and adolescent anxiety at a critical moment.

The number of students experiencing anxiety at school is on the rise. With this book, teachers can create emotionally supportive environments and strengthen children's abilities to cope with anxiety.

This must-have resource:

  • Provides a framework for understanding anxiety, its causes, and the various ways it can present in young people
  • Offers standalone action strategies for classroom use, including a matrix to identify which strategies may be most useful for specific situations
  • Makes implementation of strategies easy with reproducibles for teacher and student use

Drs. David Campos and Kathleen McConnell Fad wrote this book to ensure that teachers, regardless of their prior knowledge and background, have a wide range of easy-to-understand and useful instructional tools to address anxious behaviours.

"This book arrives at a time of significant societal stress and offers insight and relief. It is informative, practical, and, most importantly, oriented toward taking immediate action to relieve anxiety in our children. It is rare to encounter a publication so informative and solution based that teachers and counselors at every level can use to enhance their students' lives. No child is immune from anxiety. Having worked as a professional counselor and therapist at all levels of the educational system for over thirty years, I recognize the need our school staff has for solution-based literature related to anxiety. In addition, as a private practitioner having specialized working as a family therapist, it is apparent to me that Help Anxious Kids in a Stressful World would be a welcome addition to any therapist's or counselor's library."
- Jack Gilbert, M.A., bilingual licensed professional and marriage-family counselor, former school psychologist

"Help Anxious Kids in a Stressful World is a timely and much-needed resource. As an educator consulting with school leaders across the country, I know the issue of childhood anxiety is real. It enormously impacts the challenges teachers face as they work with their students. Principals are searching for strategies to help teachers and their students."
- Eileen M. Reed, Ed.D., ESR Consulting

"Highly recommended."
- Library Bookwatch, Midwest Book Review

"Anxiety rates in children are on the rise, and our children need us to notice when they're struggling and to help them when they don't have the ability to ask for help themselves. I love that this book provides actionable, practical knowledge so that, regardless of experience, prior knowledge, and background, teachers and others involved with students can help make a real difference."
- Alison Bogle, parenting blogger, writer, and speaker

"A much-needed resource for teachers on student anxiety. Preventing and relieving anxiety is essential to student well-being, and without intervention, it can become an obstacle to students' success in school and in life. This book is focused on supporting and caring for children and youth and will be a wonderful resource for teachers and educational leaders as well as parents and other community members."
- Gloria T. Alter, M.A., Ed.D., counselor, teacher educator, and author of The Human Rights Imperative in Teacher Education

"Help Anxious Kids in a Stressful World is an amazing resource for teachers and counselors. It is easy to read and utilize for educators while containing all the resources needed to implement the strategies successfully."
