When Anxiety Goes Up, Learning and Performance Go Down
Know what to say and do when anxiety strikes!
With the spike in anxiety, kids and adults need to be equipped with key information and quick strategies to decrease stress and manage anxiety-provoking situations. When you give anxiety what it needs—not what it wants—it combats anxiety’s vicious cycle, which leads to an increase in confidence, flexibility, resilience, autonomy and problem-solving skills.
Using A.B.C. Worry Free as a reference tool, we will address misunderstandings about anxiety and learn:
- How anxiety works
- How anxiety can hijack executive function
- Patterns of anxiety and how to interrupt them
- An actionable strategy to manage anxiety/stressors
- Communication, accommodation and skill building tips for the classroom and beyond
Stress less, work smarter, and get more out of school and life!
A must for all clinicians!! We had the privilege of attending Noel Foy’s workshop on anxiety, and it was amazing. My staff and I enjoyed the practical strategies that can be used virtually and in person for adults, children and adolescents. It was interactive, engaging and kept us moving. At a time where our computer time has increased, it was nice to be in a training where we got up and learned easy ways to engage our virtual clients of all ages. The content was great. Noel’s expertise was evident by her causal, natural, and dynamic presentation style.
