How to help parents understand anxiety: SELECTIVE MUTISM and SOCIAL ANXIETY
Parents worry about their children, in particular, if the child has anxiety, selective mutism, and social anxiety.
Selective Mutism is an anxiety disorder described in the DSM5, that affects young children and teenagers and can last till adulthood if not treated. Who has selective mutism is NOT choosing to speak, but it is anxiety.
I like to make videos on child anxiety and selective mutism to help parents and teachers understand the child's anxiety symptoms, or if a child is more than shy, what is the child fearful of. We help and support children with Selective Mutism and it is so important to use effective strategies to talk to your child about their anxieties.
Selective Mutism is often missed or completely misunderstood. It is important to find the right child therapist that has had training in anxiety and selective mutism, to help parents understand why their child is scared of communicating.
If Selective Mutism is treated early, children with Selective Mutism can make great progress and overcome social anxiety and selective mutism.
Today I brought Child Anxiety and OCD Specialist Natasha Daniels, one of the top leading experts in this field. She explains about social anxiety and what parents can do.
