Fear and anxiety shape childhood, and Fear Less equips caregivers to guide resilient, confident children.
Every child feels afraid sometimes but anxiety doesn't have to take over their lives.
Today, more than ever before, children and teenagers are struggling with worry and fear. Fear Less is the essential guide for any parent, teacher or caregiver who wants to help young people manage anxiety with strength and confidence.
Drawing on his decades of clinical experience and using powerful real-life stories and evidence-based techniques, David Coleman shows how to spot the early signs of anxiety, understand what's happening in a child's mind and body, and use simple, practical tools to calm and reassure them. You'll discover how to:
- Recognise the triggers and patterns behind anxious behaviour
- Soothe and support children emotionally, physically and cognitively
- Build resilience and self-belief that last a lifetime.
Warm, wise and full of hope, Fear Less gives adults the confidence to guide children through fear and teaches families how to face life's challenges with courage, calm and connection.
David Coleman reminds us that our job isn't to make sure our children never feel afraid; it's to help them know how to fear less
