TELL ME IT WILL BE OK

How do I know if my anxious child is having typical sleep struggles or something more serious?


Listen Later

In this episode of The Child Anxiety Back podcast, we dive into the topic of sleep and child anxiety. We address a common concern: how to distinguish between typical sleep struggles and something more serious. I emphasize the importance of recognizing the validity of a child's sleep struggles and discusses the strong link between child anxiety and sleep issues. Delving into the definition of pediatric insomnia, we highlight the impact on both the child and the family and stress the need for parents to seek support and intervention if sleep struggles persist, offering insights into behavioral interventions and the creation of effective bedtime routines. If you'd like help with your anxious child's sleep issue, check out Bedtime Navigator, a 6-week coaching program for parents of anxious children who need a good night's sleep!
