I often suggest books parents to read alongside therapy for themselves or their child.
Here is a wide-ranging list of some good ones to get you started:
- Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting – Noel Janis-Norton
- Playful Parenting – Lawrence Cohen
- How to Talk So Kids Will Listen – Faber & Mazlish
- Babytalk – Sally Ward
- Siblings Without Rivalry – Faber, Mazlish & Coe
- Systemic Parenting – Mark Gaskill
- Overcoming Child’s fears & Worries – Cathy Creswell
And a few books to read with your child:
- What to do when you worry too much – Dawn Heubner
- Nightlights: Stories for You to Read to Your Child To Encourage Calm, Confidence and Creativity – Civardi, Dunbar & Fontana
