In this episode, host Camille Foley explores an important topic: anxiety in children and young people, viewed from two distinct perspectives. In the first section, Steph an adult, shares her lived and ongoing experience with anxiety. She is someone who has always experienced anxiety but received a formal diagnosis later in her adult life. The second section features insights from Senior Clinical Psychologists, Jesse Richardson and Georgie Cox, who offer their professional expertise on supporting young people and their supporters, clinical approaches, and evidence-based treatments for anxiety.
