What is anxiety? Anxiety is more than feeling stressed or worried. It can be difficult to cope, but with the right support, things can get better.

Internet based therapy is not new anymore. Many studies have shown great success with online cognitive behaviour therapy. It is convenient, cost effective, confidential and easy to access for busy families. The BRAVE Program is an interactive, online program for the prevention and treatment of childhood and adolescent anxiety. The programs are free and provide ways for children and teenagers to better cope with their worries.

The BRAVE Program can be used on any computer or tablet device and includes up to 10 sessions that you can work through at your own pace. 

There are interactive activities on:

• anxious body signs and relaxation
• activating helpful thoughts
• victory over your fears
• finding solutions to your problems
• rewarding yourself
• preparing for the future.

There are also programs for parents. Please visit https://brave4you.psy.uq.edu.au for more information.
