Sacramento Parent Coaching for Childhood Anxiety

4-Week Intensive: Raising Brave Kids

Is your child struggling with anxiety in schools, social settings, or at home, and you’re feeling unsure how to help?

You’re not alone. Anxiety in children and teens across Sacramento, the region and the state is rising. Many parents in Elk Grove, Folsom, Roseville, Midtown, East Sacramento, and surrounding areas are seeing increased school avoidance, emotional meltdowns, sleep struggles, and excessive worry.

This structured 4-week coaching intensive is designed specifically for Sacramento-area parents who want practical tools, expert guidance, and a clear plan to confidently support their anxious child.

This is therapy-informed parent coaching, focused on empowering you with skills that reduce anxiety patterns at home.

What We Work On (Week-by-Week Breakdown)

Week 1: Understanding Anxiety in Kids

We begin by building clarity and confidence.

You’ll learn:

• How anxiety works in the brain and nervous system

• Why avoidance makes anxiety stronger

• How reassurance can unintentionally reinforce fear

• The difference between anxiety, sensitivity, and defiance

• Your child’s specific anxiety triggers (school, social, sleep, separation, performance)

By the end of Week 1, you’ll understand exactly what’s happening — and why.

Week 2: Regulating Yourself & Breaking the Anxiety Cycle

An anxious child needs a regulated parent.

We focus on:

• How your nervous system impacts your child’s nervous system

• Responding calmly instead of reacting

• Reducing accommodation behaviors (without becoming harsh)

• Stopping reinforcement patterns that keep anxiety stuck

• Building confident, steady parental leadership

Sacramento parents often report that this week alone changes everything.

Week 3: Practical Tools for School, Social & Home Anxiety

This week is hands-on and strategy-based.

We develop:

• Brave practice plans

• Exposure support strategies

• Morning and bedtime anxiety routines

• Scripts for coaching instead of rescuing

• Boundaries that build resilience

• Plans for school refusal or social anxiety

You leave with clear, structured action steps.

Week 4: Building Long-Term Resilience

We shift from crisis management to long-term confidence.

You’ll learn how to:

• Teach emotional literacy

• Build distress tolerance

• Normalize discomfort

• Strengthen independence

• Create a family anxiety plan

• Prevent relapse into old patterns

You’ll finish the program with a roadmap for continued growth.
