It was a pleasure to be a guest on Dr. Plimpton’s podcast. Dr. Plimpton draws on his decades of experience working with parents of anxious kids to provide steady, wise advice meeting your child where they are and helping them overcome the obstacles that anxiety can drop into their lives. A deep dive balanced with practical, actionable ideas, I think parents of anxious kids (and all kids are anxious kids some of the time!) will truly feel at home in these compassionate and helpful conversations. ... more
I enjoyed or conversation about ACT and how it can help kids deal with their worries. I find your podcast very helpful both as a therapist and as a parent myself, who is always open to know more about various ways in which we can support kids in standing up to worry, offering them simple and practical ways to do that. Thank you!
As a therapist, I have found Dr. Plimpton’s podcast to be a valuable resource for myself and my clients. The episodes are insightful while being easy to understand and practical. I appreciate the vast array of topics related to child anxiety covered as well.
Insightful, applicable, and useful for all stages of life. Well done, Dr. Plimpton.
As a mother with a 5 year old with anxiety I have found nothing on here that reflects the title of this podcast. It is also biased to mostly talking about teenagers. I’ve listened to it a year and still give up 15 mins into each podcast, there is no real examples of children’s behaviour there is no advice. If you want to know the names of books clinical psychologists have written this is the podcast for you but I’m not bothering anymore.

The show offers practical, evidence-based guidance for parents navigating anxiety in children, spanning early childhood through teens.

Guests range from clinical psychologists and pediatricians to researchers and authors, providing tools that are actionable for families, clinicians, and educators. A notable strength is the emphasis on accessible language, real-life examples, and a compassionate, non-blaming approach that helps parents feel supported while applying concrete strategies. A recurring distinction is framing anxiety as manageable with stepwise interventions, caregive... more
