In today's episode I sit down with child and adolescent psychologist and director of the Yale Child Study Center's Anxiety and Mood Disorders Program, Dr. Eli Lebowitz. We dive into everything you need to know about anxiety in children. We explore what anxiety looks like—from everyday worries to more severe cases—and tackle the delicate balance between being a supportive parent and inadvertently accommodating a child’s fears. Using powerful metaphors, Dr. Lebowitz helps us understand how to recognize and respond to anxiety in ways that truly empower our kids.
