Anxiety is the #1 mental health issue facing children and teens today; and only 10% of youth get the help they need. Tammy Schamuhn, our Co-Founder & psychologist, will be speaking about anxiety at our upcoming conference in Edmonton (our hometown!). This course has been newly updated to integrate Yale University’s Anxiety Program (S.P.A.C.E) and is jam packed full of the most recent research, strategies, and insights to bring calm and resiliency into the life of a child who is struggling. Whether it’s generalized anxiety, OCD, somatic complaints (i.e., headaches, stomach aches), avoidance, racing thoughts, or perfectionism– this course is for you! Taught to sold out audiences in every corner of the globe, this course is here to empower and inspire you.

As a child who endured much trauma in her past she speaks about her personal experiences with family substance abuse, domestic violence, emotional abuse, and how the power of connection is integral to healing and overcoming adversity.
