Coping Cat for Anxious Youth and the CAT Project are evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapies for children and teens with anxiety. Children and teens are taught coping skills for managing stress. Children and teens also gain awareness of their feelings and how to manage them effectively. Children and teens learn to identify triggers for their fears and thoughts that contribute to the fear or prevent them from overcoming anxiety. An essential feature of this type of treatment involves creating a hierarchy of fears and facing each fear head-on gradually in real-life scenarios with support of the clinician and involved family members.
