An accessible, straightforward guide to the issues and challenges commonly faced by children and young people who suffer with anxiety and depression at home and in school - and the practical ways in which parents, carers and teachers can help.
Part of the How to Help series of books exploring issues commonly faced by children and young people at home and in school, Anxiety and Depression offers a complete introduction to these complex, sensitive topics. Sending a hopeful and encouraging message to parents and teachers regarding the benefits of mental health knowledge and awareness, especially in the aftermath of Covid which has worsened an already critical situation in relation to young people's mental health, the book looks first at the general nature of these issues and presents a range of approaches for support. Individual chapters then look at a range of specific problems and their key features. Drawing on case studies to show how supportive strategies can play out in the real world, Gerri Brady explores why pulling together can be a huge factor in achieving positive outcomes - and shows how parents, carers, teachers and schools can help.

GERRI BRADY is an experienced psychological therapist who works with adults, children and young people and families at First Psychology Centre in Edinburgh. She has worked in a primary care adult mental health, university counselling and a specialist outreach team for schools. She is trained in CBT, Person-Centred Counselling, Trauma Focused CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy and Mindfulness. She is also qualified in Play Therapy, and she combines this with a Systemic approach for family therapy. Geraldine works in an evidence-based way with clients with a wide range of difficulties including phobias, social anxiety, panic disorder, trauma, health anxiety, stress, OCD, GAD, mood issues, depression, anger, low self-esteem, insomnia, bereavement, relationship issues and problems of adjustment relating to life transitions. She is also experienced in working with families who are living with emotional and behavioural difficulties such as ADHD and autism.
