With decades of combined experience, Dr. Anne Marie Albano and Dr. Shannon Bennett are pioneers in the field of child and adolescent psychology. As co-clinical directors at the Center for Youth Mental Health at NewYork-Presbyterian, they have contributed to the gold standard for treatment of anxious and depressed youth using cognitive behavioral therapies. In this episode, listen as they discuss details on the proven effectiveness of treating parents alongside children, as well as incorporating immersive group therapy. Dr. Albano and Dr. Bennett explain how well-meaning but overprotective parenting can create further avoidant tendencies in children and young adults and explore the neuroscience that confirms how adolescent treatment for anxiety differs from that of young children or adults.
