The Anxiety Epidemic: Dr Danielle Einstein - Helping Kids and Parents Thrive
We are joined by Dr. Danielle Einstein, a clinical psychologist with nearly 30 years of experience. We discuss the complexities of anxiety, its various forms, and the misconceptions surrounding it. She provides practical insights for parents and individuals to better manage and navigate anxiety. Dr. Einstein also talks about her latest book, 'Raising Anxiety: Why Our Good Intentions Are Backfiring on Children and How to Fix It,' which explores the factors contributing to rising anxiety levels and offers strategies for change. The conversation delves into effective therapies like cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and emphasises the importance of understanding and properly addressing anxiety.
