The SCARED form asks questions about different feelings and behaviors that children may experience. It covers areas such as worries, fears, physical symptoms related to anxiety, and how anxiety impacts daily life.
How is the SCARED form used?
The form consists of questions that you will answer based on your observations. Each question helps us understand the level and type of anxiety your child may be experiencing.
Why is the SCARED form important?
Identifying anxiety early allows us to provide appropriate support and interventions. Your answers on the SCARED form will help us determine if further evaluation or support is needed for your child.
