Inclusion criteria: Families of anxious children aged under 10 years. Patients will be included in the trial if they score at or above the suggested clinical cut-off for an internalising disorder on the child behaviour checklist (the primary outcome measure). However, to ensure that all participants are of clinical severity, they must also have a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) diagnosis of an anxiety disorder, assessed by the Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for Children (not including specific phobia, obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder/acute stress disorder, anxiety due to a general medical condition, or substance induced anxiety disorder). Participants will not be excluded on the grounds of other comorbid conditions.
Exclusion criteria: Parents or children with moderate to severe learning disabilities will not be included in the study. Children whose parents do not have adequate English to benefit from the group format of the intervention will not be included.
