Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart

As parents, we want our children to feel happy, relaxed, and confident, but young people experience worry and anxiety at times. When our kids are anxious, it’s natural to want to make them feel better, but trying to protect kids from the things that upset them can inadvertently make the anxiety worse.

What worries are a normal part of growing up, and when does your child’s anxiety start to affect their wellbeing? Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart will offer practical real-world strategies that work to address dealing with an anxious (or overly anxious) child.
