Anxiety disorders are one of the primary mental health problems affecting children and adolescents today. Given the wide range of stressors associated with growing up, it is important that our children have appropriate skills for coping with anxiety and other difficult emotions.

The Child Anxiety Network was created by Dr. Donna Pincus and is designed to provide thorough, user-friendly information about child anxiety. We accept no advertising. The Child Anxiety Network is also designed to provide direction for those who are not sure where to turn when they think their child or a child they know may need professional help to cope with anxiety.
