An eye-opening book, Mar 26 2006

This review is from: Worried No More: Help and Hope for Anxious Children (Paperback)
I've ordered several books to better understand my daughter's OCD but since she is not the traditional "hand-washer" the books didn't help. This book does. It explores so many facets of OCD that I didn't see (nor did her psychologist) before. It has helped me look at my daughter's behaviors in a new way and see the disease manifest itself in ways I never thought of before. I would highly recommend this easy-to-read book to anyone who has a child with OCD and/or anxiety problems. It was exactly what I needed.

WONDERFUL RESOURCE, April 3 2006
By Martha Spital - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Worried No More: Help and Hope for Anxious Children (Paperback)
WORRIED NO MORE by Dr. Aureen Pinto Wagner is a very comprehensive and informative book designed to help parents, school personnel and mental health professionals deal with anxious children and adolescents. The second edition has a completely new look making it even more reader friendly, practical and easy to use. Dr. Wagner uses her vast knowledge of and empathy toward anxious children to provide specific strategies as well as forms and tools for decreasing and managing anxiety. I have found these strategies to be highly effective. I often use her forms and tools when I treat anxious youth (and adults). I highly recommend this book to mental health professionals, school personnel and parents of anxious children.Martha Spital, LCSW-R New York, New York

A must buy for anyone working with anxious children, Jan 21 2006
By Anu C. Patel "Anu C Patel, Ph.D." - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Worried No More: Help and Hope for Anxious Children (Paperback)
Dr. Wagner's expertise comes alive in this practical guidebook for anyone who is trying to help an anxious child get up and over the "worry hill." The techniques are incredibly empowering for children of all ages and I have successfully used her step-by-step guidelines and easy to use forms. The children have really enjoyed the approaches and it has been a moving experience to watch them overcome their worse fears. I highly highly recommend this workbook and you will not be disappointed.
