  • Book cover of Qué hacer cuando te preocupas demasiado (What to Do When You Worry Too Much)

    Ganador del premio Gold NAPPA (Premios nacionales de publicaciones para padres) ¿Sabías que las preocupaciones son como los tomates? No, no puedes comerlas, pero puedes hacerlas crecer, simplemente hay que prestarle atención. Si tus preocupaciones han crecido de tal manera que te molestan casi todos los días, entonces este libro es para ti. Qué hacer cuando te preocupas demasiado sirve para guiar a padres y a niños a través de las técnicas cognitivo-conductuales más usadas en el tratamiento para la ansiedad. Las metáforas e ilustraciones en este libro hacen que los conceptos y estrategias sean más fáciles de entender, mientras que los pasos que muestran cómo hacerlo y las indicaciones para dibujar y escribir ayudan a los niños a dominar las nuevas habilidades relacionadas con la reducción de la ansiedad. Este interactivo libro para la autoayuda es el mejor recurso para educar, motivar y capacitar a los niños para que superen sus preocupaciones excesivas. Atractivo, alentador y fácil de seguir, este libro educa, motiva y capacita a los niños para trabajar hacia el cambio. Incluye una nota para los padres por la psicóloga y autora Dawn Huebner, PhD. Sacado de la Nota para los padres: Si es padre o cuidador de un niño con ansiedad, sabe lo que se siente ser un rehén. Su hijo también lo sabe. Los niños que se preocupan demasiado son prisioneros de sus miedos. Hacen todo lo posible por evitar situaciones que les causan miedo y hacen las mismas preguntas de ansiedad una y otra vez. Sin embargo, las respuestas no les dan prácticamente ningún alivio. Los padres y cuidadores pasan mucho tiempo tranquilizando, persuadiendo, acomodando y haciendo cualquier otra cosa que se les ocurra para minimizar la angustia de su hijo. Pero no funciona. La ansiedad sigue teniendo el control. Como indudablemente ha descubierto, decir simplemente a un niño ansioso que deje de preocuparse no ayuda en absoluto. Tampoco ayuda aplicar lógica de adultos, ni permitir que su hijo evite las situaciones temidas, ni consolándolo cada vez que exprese sus temores. Este libro forma parte de la serie de guías “QUÉ HACER” para niños (What-to-Do Guides for Kids®) de Magination Press e incluye una "Introducción para padres y cuidadores".
