LUNA Teen Caregiver Modules

Master
Content

Throughout each caregiver module, you will read information, watch videos, and complete worksheets and other activities. We recommend you complete one module each week and take time to practice the associated activities from that module throughout the week. The first seven modules will likely apply to any child or teen struggling with anxiety and should be completed in order, but Modules 8-11 may only apply to some kids. We have included some details at the beginning of each of those modules to help you decide if they will be helpful for you.
