AllamuchyMom Good luck with your child. I never like hearing about someone so young with anxiety. My thoughts are with you and your child.

Elsie We began to seek professional help for our daughter's anxiety issues around age 10. When my daughter was in her mid-teens we found Dr. Michele Cannata in Tranquility and saw her up until the time our daughter left for college. My daughter is now in her mid-twenties and often comments during stressful times that she uses the tools she learned from Dr. Cannata. I hope you find the help your family and child need.
