The Parent Companion is a resource for parents or caregivers of youth participating in the Coping Cat Program for anxiety. The Coping Cat Program employs a cognitive-behavioral approach to helping children identify and manage their anxiety. The Parent Companion informs parents or caregivers about the experiences their child will have as he/she completes the program. Directed to parents or caregivers, the Parent Companion provides information about the nature of anxiety, about its treatment, and about the ways that parents may be involved in their child s treatment. Specifically, this resource includes information about identifying somatic responses to anxiety, changing anxious thinking, using relaxation, engaging in problem solving, and approaching rather than avoiding anxiety provoking situations.

CBT is an empirically-supported approach to reduce anxious distress in youth. This newest version of CBT is BRIEF, reducing the 16-session Coping Cat program to 8 sessions. As in the 16-session Coping Cat program, the sessions teach about anxiety and its management, and promote coping skills for dealing with anxiety. Exposure tasks remain critical to favorable outcomes and are introduced early in the Brief Coping Cat Workbook. Appendices include situation cards with three levels of difficulty, a feelings barometer, as well as other cut-outs and a certificate of achievement.

This therapist manual describes the general strategies used in the treatment of anxiety in children (e.g., exposure tasks, homework, changing anxious self-talk, etc.). The treatment manual is coordinated with the Brief Coping Cat: The 8-Session Coping Cat Workbook. There is a chapter devoted to each of the sessions that appear in the accompanying workbook, and each chapter provides stated goals and explains the rationale for the treatment activities. Of applied interest, the manual includes consideration of comorbidities and complicating factors, and provides flex call outs to places within the treatment where flexibility can be implemented.
