Comparing two talk therapies for anxious kids aged 7-12
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial compares two kinds of therapy for children with mild to moderate anxiety. It tests whether a stepped care approach works as well as group cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help reduce anxiety.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 7 and 12 years old.
- Your child must have mild to moderate anxiety (not severe enough for specialist care).
- Your child cannot have any other psychiatric or developmental condition that needs different treatment first.
- Your child cannot be in another psychological therapy right now.
