Managing Social Anxiety in Children and Young People introduces a new  approach for working with anxious children and young people to help them  develop social skills and reduce stress.

Structured around the  principles of ‘nurturing and nesting’, the book focuses on a practical  approach which strays away from dependency on medicine, but relies on  the stimulation of thoughts and feelings during the process of change.  It shows readers how shifting perceptions of oneself and others can  change a person’s attitude.The chapters feature tangible resources and  exercises for developing the core processes of breathing, rhythm, sound,  and physical movement in a way that can lead to a reduction of the  anxiety and a new awareness of the self. The techniques are clearly laid  out in developmental sequences, accompanied by illustrated worksheets  and story sheets.

This book will be of interest to teachers,  teaching assistants, care workers, clinicians, therapists, parents, and  all professionals involved in the support and development of children  and young people.
