“She’s scared of making mistakes. She won’t even give it a try!”
“He’s worried something bad will happen to me”
“They’re always getting stomach pains or feeling sick, but there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with them!”
Does your child have difficulty coping with fear and worries?
Get Lost Mr Scary (GLMS) is a cognitive behavioural program designed especially for children aged between 5 and 7 years. Utilising play-based, fun activities, it teaches children skills that can help them to better manage their fears and worries.
What’s involved?
6 weekly small group afternoon sessions for children
2 parent partnership sessions (critical for best outcomes!)
A “graduation” session for children and parents
A follow up “booster” session
Each session runs for approximately 1 hour
Groups are capped at 8 participants
