Letting Go to Let them Grow: The Relationship Between Anxiety in Our Children and Parenting Style

Monday, November 9, 2015 at 7:00 PM
Lower Library - Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School
74 Ridge Road, Rumson

All parents worry about their children being happy and productive.  But with academic pressures, social pressures, and different personality styles, it is no surprise that we see anxiety in our children and teens. 
 
Last year, Dr. Block presented an overview of different anxiety disorders.  This year she will talk about how parents sometimes inadvertently parent in ways that can increase the chances of anxiety.  Come learn about what you can do as a parent to modify your own style and give your child a greater chance to have good coping skills, less worry, and more resilience.
 
 
Featured Speaker: Alison P. Block, PhD
Dr. Block is a licensed psychologist and the Director of the Health Psychology Center in Little Silver.   In her Little Silver practice, Dr. Block works with many children and adolescents with anxiety disorders, depression, attentional and social issues and other challenges. She is also the psychologist for the Department of Medicine at Monmouth Medical Center and a clinical instructor in Medicine at Drexel University
