This program gives hope and humor for anxiety sufferers

Our seven year old has loved this program, and we have too. The doctors give advice and instruction in a way that we genuinely enjoy and connect with. The best part is that the crying and fearful behavior have often turned into calm and even a look of bravery as we use the coping mechanisms we've learned. It's imperative that as the parent you learn these strategies to help your kiddo through their moments of anxiety. It's even been good for me as an adult when I have faced my own anxieties. I love that it's made to be an audio book directly for kids: it makes our boy feel special and it's [...]

Not helpful to my son but a great concept

My 8 year old son has extreme anxiety and is currently taking meds for this. In addition, he has other mental challenges that I believe prevented him from getting past day two of the therapy. He often experiences paranoia and was convinced that listening to the sessions was opening the door to thought insertion. He refused to listen. I listened while he was listening and felt that for another child, without his added issues, this therapy would have likely been effective. Because of his other challenges, there aren't any therapists in our area that will agree to treat him. I really had high [...]

Thank you so much

I have an 8 year old daughter who has been struggling with anxiety for about two years. Over the last month we realized how bad it had gotten when she repeatedly asked us if she was sick and seemed to be on the verge of a panic attack several times a day. We started the Turnaround program and she loved it. It helped her so much to hear that she wasn’t alone in her fears. We’re still working with her on stairstepping and practicing every day but she’s made so much progress. I’m so proud of her and so grateful that this program was available to us. I definitely recommend it. You won’t be [...]

Thank You doctor Chris and David this has really helped me. Even my mom thinks I improved I am so lucky you created turnaround. Sincerely, Saylor Smith [...]

Finding Hope

Before I found TurnAround I was starting to lose hope. There is no lack of experts who say they can help but didn't and are happy to put their hand out for payment. There was something about all that I read on the TurnAround website that came across with authenticity and quality. When I downloaded the program I was skeptical but our experience mirrors what many of the other parents shared. My daughter devoured the sessions without being asked. It has also given us a common language so I can understand better what she is struggling with and offer assistance without her resisting. Probably the [...]

Great program

My daughter looks forward to the sessions and the advice is concrete and clear. [...]

A God send

I found Turnaround through an ad on Facebook, when I was desperate to find some way to help my 8 year old son work through his anxiety. I wasn't sure it would be effective but I was feeling helpless and willing to try anything, so I took the risk. I can say that even after listening to the program one time (we plan to listen to the episodes again as needed) things have greatly improved for him! Hearing how other kids struggle, from their own perspective, was a game changer for my son. He didn't feel so lonely or weird anymore. He and I also gained a better understanding of the different [...]

Fantastic program

My 9 year old daughter developed emetophobia at the end of school year. It took us four months to find out the cause of her unusual and unpredictable behavior. When her moods and actions became so severe, she told us that she is afraid that somebody at school will get sick and she could not be able to deal with it. Her fear completely overwhelmed her. It was very hard to deal with it for our whole family! While I was searching online for anything to help her and to learn more about emetophobia, I found the Turnaround website. After reading so many positive reviews, I decided to try it with my [...]

“I’m so glad you found Turnaround”

My daughter has all the sudden been battling with anxiety over getting sick at school. We have had some horrible days trying to get her there and have resorted to meetings with her school counselor and even dropping her off with her in the morning until she calms down. It is so sad to watch and she is making herself physically sick with the worrying. We have taken her to her Dr. twice to make sure there is truly nothing wrong with her stomach and tried multiple other things related to her diet as well. I was fairly skeptical at first, but during my research of this anxiety, I came across [...]

So Thankful

Our 9 year old daughter, the youngest of 5 children, struggles with anxiety and also exhibits signs of OCD. This program has been a gift to our family. We live in a remote rural area, so we are limited in getting regular professional help. We have been slowly working through the program and now feel much better equipped to help her. Confronting wacky thoughts and asking "what's the evidence" have been very helpful to her. The Chill exercises are a much anticipated part of her evening routine. She has been falling asleep without an older sibling or parent in her room for the past 10 days. Her [...]

I am amazed how well kids respond

I am a therapist and am having great success with this program. [...]

Tools to access and address anxiety

This program was recommended to me by our pediatrician after dealing with intermittent fears and anxieties over the past year. The anxiety first started after hearing some scary stories at camp. She recently saw a news program and has been paralyzed by the idea that "Bad guys" are coming and that she/we are not safe. We've had occasional bouts of shyness and some separation anxiety as well, those have intensified by recent events and ideas. My daughter and I have worked through the program together over the past 3 weeks. The information in the sessions and the corresponding journal entries [...]

Great so far

We are on day 7 of turnaround. So far my daughter loves it, begs to do it, and is trying hard to learn from it. It's too soon to tell if it is working, but we hope we will start to see her put these ideas into practice soon! [...]

Excellent Treatment Outcomes

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and the Turnaround program has been a welcomed addition to my tool box. The children have related to the story outline; and have made significant improvement after only a few sessions. I am very pleased with the outcomes. I highly recommend this program to parents and therapists. [...]

Thank you so much!

Christmas Break 2017 my daughter began having scary thoughts. Anxiety seemed to come from out of nowhere and ruled over my precious girl. She would not play with her toys anymore out of fear she might break them. She complained of stomach pain every day. Her normal, positive, bubbly personality God had blessed her with was disappearing. I broke down. I didn't have any answers and I was scared. Finally, my brain came back to me and I prayed and prayed for God to give us the answers, to guide us down the path we needed to travel. A wonderful woman I have never met told me through a facebook page [...]
