Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This trial examines the effectiveness of training pediatric primary care providers (nurse practitioners, doctors) to use of strategies that enhance family/youth empowerment and engagement during office visits for children with mild to moderate problems with anxiety. Children coming for routine care at one clinic are screened for anxiety symptoms and seen by either a specially trained provider or one of the clinic's other regular staff members.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Children who are thought to have mild to moderate anxiety will, via their parents, be offered the opportunity to receive treatment from their pediatric primary care provider. Providers will either use their existing anxiety approaches or will use those approaches combined with extra communication skills designed to promote patient and parent engagement in care. Children will be seen for up to 4 30-minute visits at 2 week intervals, with a follow-up telephone call 3 months later to asses the impact of treatment. Children with more severe anxiety (or those whose parents so desire) will be referred for specialized mental health care.
