| Managing Anxiety in Your Teens | This video is a webinar aimed at teenagers. We look at how anxiety is experienced in the body and how our anxious thoughts and feelings can lead to unhelpful behaviours (e.g. avoidance). We then focus on a range of techniques to manage our anxious thoughts and feelings and look at how else we can minimise or reduce the impact of anxiety. If you are a young person attending a school within Merton, Sutton, Richmond or Wandsworth, you may be able to access the free workbook that goes with this webinar. Please contact your pastoral department to see whether our service is working with your school, so that we can send you a copy. | 20 mins | https://youtu.be/boYXxsZb4EA |
