In this episode of Ask Dr Jessica,  Lori Allen, MFT joins Dr. Jessica Hochman to discuss all aspects of childhood anxiety.  Isn't some level of anxiety normal?  How does a parent know when anxiety is a point where a child would benefit from therapy?  If a child is anxious, what are some strategies a parent can use to help?  We also discuss what therapy with a psychologist can offer and what a family may expect from a therapist.  Lori offers tips for parents to help balance raising children and work.  

Lori Allen is an MFT at Village Wellness Counseling and you can find her at www.villagewellnesscounseling.com.  She specializes in children with anxiety, and with  parents who have anxiety.
