Back to Calm: A Parent's Guide to Co-Regulation and Easing Anxiety in Kids of All Ages

This guide is for parents of children ages 5–18 who struggle with anxiety, emotional dysregulation, frequent meltdowns, or big worry — whether or not your child has a formal diagnosis.

Written by Danielle Orr, PMHNP-BC, FNP-C — a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with 20+ years specializing in children and adolescents, a functional psychiatry clinician trained under Dr. James Greenblatt, and a parent with lived experience navigating family medical complexity.

This isn't a textbook. It's the guide I wish someone had handed me.
