Theauthors then provide a step-by-step procedure for delivering exposures, illustrated through sample dialogues and case examples.

Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health problems of childhood and adolescence. Childhood anxiety impacts not only the anxious child themselves, but also parents and other family members who inevitably find themselves drawn into accommodating the child's symptoms.
