Advice for a teen boy with huge health anxiety

1 reply

I have a 14 year old boy suffering with serious anxiety, mainly around his health.

Triggered - I think - by news of a beloved pet being diagnosed as terminal.

Am trying hard to get him an appointment but it seems all levels of teen counselling, psychiatric, or psychological services are overwhelmed, understandably.

He's been checked out thoroughly and nothing is physically wrong.

In an absence of a talking appointment, which I'm still searching for obviously, I would love to hear any wisdom on how to help for now? Thank you.

Talk to Therese Langford of https://www.facebook.com/calmmindhypnotherapy - she works almost exclusively with children/teens and has excellent results.
