Show Notes
Anxiety in kids and teens doesn’t always look like panic attacks or overt distress. Often, it hides behind stomach aches, perfectionism, or school avoidance. In this episode, I chat with anxiety coach Monica Crnogorac about recognizing the subtle signs of anxiety in teens and understanding how it can manifest.
We also discuss practical strategies for:
• Supporting teens in managing overwhelming emotions.
• Helping them build resilience without becoming dependent on constant reassurance.
• Using effective communication to create a safe space for open dialogue.
Monica also shares her personal journey with high-functioning anxiety, offering insights into how parents can model healthy behaviours and foster emotional strength in their teens.
Listen now to gain the tools and understanding you need to support the teens in your life.
