Anxiety Treatment for Children & Teens in Maryland
Support for overwhelmed minds online, statewide!
Childhood anxiety is more common than many parents realize, and it often goes unnoticed or misunderstood.
If your child worries excessively, avoids certain situations, complains of stomachaches or headaches, or seems constantly on edge, their nervous system may be overwhelmed.
At Emerald Aura Wellness, we provide psychiatric evaluation and treatment for anxiety in children and teens across Maryland, helping families understand what’s happening and how to support emotional regulation and confidence.
Signs of Anxiety in Children & Teens
Anxiety doesn’t always look like fear. In children, it often shows up in subtle ways.
You may notice:
Excessive worry or reassurance-seeking
Difficulty separating from caregivers
Trouble sleeping
Avoidance of school activities
Physical complaints (stomachaches, headaches)
Irritability, perfectionism, or shutdowns
Emotional overwhelm or meltdowns
Anxiety is not a character flaw. It’s the nervous system asking for support
