Small Steps is a program that aims to raise awareness and improve the recognition of anxiety disorders in children. We do this by offering anxiety awareness seminars for primary school staff (teachers, principals, administrative staff) and parents.
A seperate presentation is run each for parents or for teachers.
Topics covered during the seminar:
- signs and symptoms of anxiety
- the different types of anxiety disorders and how they present
- evidence based treatments for anxiety disorders
- referral and treatment options
A Small Steps seminar will usually run for about an hour and can be held at your local school. Seminars can be conducted before, during or after school hours. Seminars for teachers are usually held during staff meetings or on professional development days.
Fee Structure
1 session is $100 (a parents or a teacher session)
Each additional session is $50 if held on the same day.
