Dr Marcia Braden PhD, psychologist, from webinar recording 11 November 2023.

Fragile X-associated anxiety has a significant impact on daily living and on behaviours for children & adults with Fragile X syndrome. Dr Braden discusses how the Fragile X-associated anxiety is different to that experienced by neurotypical individuals. Dr Braden presents practical tips and strategies for helping an individual to manage the anxiety and achieve the best outcomes.

The information presented here will be extremely helpful for parents, carers, family members, educators, therapists, disability support workers, employers and everyone who is supporting a child or an adult with Fragile X syndrome.

The webinar was an update of Dr Braden’s earlier webinar on Anxiety and was co-hosted by Fragile X Association of Australia and Fragile X New Zealand.
