Agenda & speakers

Traditional therapy models, though effective, can be too rigid for full family engagement. OSI (Online Support and Intervention for Child Anxiety), developed by the Universities of Reading and Oxford  and offered by Koa Health, addresses this by providing interactive modules for parents to complete at their own pace to support their children and therapist check-ins. The webinar will dive into:

➡️Child anxiety and how NHS services can increase support for families

➡️How OSI has been integrated into treatment and its successes

➡️How OSI is transforming the treatment of child anxiety through evidence-based CBT
