Applied Tween Emotional Wellbeing: Anxiety, Mood, and the Long Arc

Applied tween emotional wellbeing addresses anxiety, mood concerns, and the long arc into teen years. This applied course teaches integrated reasoning through case-based modules. By the end of this course you will be able to support tweens with anxiety, navigate mood concerns, coordinate with professional support, and sustain wellbeing practices into the teen years. What you will learn: - Approaches to supporting tweens with anxiety including school, social, and specific phobias - Approaches to mood concerns including persistent sadness and irritability - Approaches to coordinating with pediatric and mental health providers - Approaches to supporting siblings during family stress - Approaches to specific situations including loss, illness, or family change - Approaches to the transition into teen-year emotional life - Approaches to your own emotional well-being as a parent The course is structured around six applied modules. Each produces a written artifact: an anxiety support plan, a mood concerns framework, a professional support plan, a siblings reflection, a specific situations response, and a long-arc plan. This course is written for parents thinking across the long arc. The course is informational and does not substitute for pediatric medical or mental health care. By the end you will have moved from reactive responses to sustained support.
