Trechu Pryder

An older child's guide to managing anxiety.

Worry has a way of growing, shifting from not-a-big-deal to a VERY BIG DEAL in the blink of an eye. This big-deal Worry is tricky, luring children into behaviours that keep the anxiety cycle going. Children often find it hard to fight back against Worry, but not anymore. 'TRECHU PRYDER' teaches 9 to 13 year olds and the adults who care about them a specific set of skills that makes it easier to face – and overcome – worries and fears.

Smart, practical, proven techniques are presented in language, accessible to children with an emphasis on shifting from knowing to doing, from worried to happy and free.
