Childhood Anxiety

Some worry is normal in childhood. But when anxiety becomes excessive, persistent, and interferes with school, friendships, or family life, professional help can make a profound difference.

About this Condition

About Childhood Anxiety

Childhood anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions in children. They include Generalised Anxiety Disorder, Separation Anxiety, Social Anxiety, and specific phobias. Symptoms may include excessive worry, clinginess, avoidance of school, physical complaints (stomachaches, headaches), sleep difficulties, and irritability.

I provide age-appropriate evaluation and treatment, working closely with both the child and their parents to address anxiety effectively.

Prevention of anxiety persisting into adulthood

Our Method

Our approach

Treatment is tailored to the child's age and developmental level. It typically involves CBT-based approaches adapted for children, including psychoeducation (teaching the child about anxiety), gradual exposure to feared situations, and parent coaching. Medication is considered when anxiety is severe or unresponsive to therapy alone, and is always discussed thoroughly with parents.

Eligibility

Who is this for?

  1. Children who worry excessively about everyday things
  2. Children who avoid school, social situations, or specific activities due to fear
  3. Those experiencing frequent physical complaints with no medical cause
  4. Children with separation anxiety that goes beyond normal developmental attachment
  5. Parents concerned about their child's emotional wellbeing

Questions

Common questions

Some anxiety is a normal part of childhood development. However, when anxiety is persistent, severe, and interferes with daily life, it is a clinical condition that benefits from treatment. Early intervention prevents anxiety from becoming entrenched.

Age-appropriate therapy uses play, storytelling, art, and simple language. Children as young as 5-6 can engage effectively in CBT when it is adapted for their developmental level.

Depression

Many people in Indore live with depression for years, mistaking it for stress, weakness, or a personal failing. It is none of those things. Depression is a medical condition, and with proper treatment, recovery is possible.
