  • Generalized Anxiety Disorder
  • Social Phobia
  • Separation Anxiety Disorder
  • Obsessive-compulsive Disorder

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Computer assisted cognitive behavioral therapy.

Those who choose to participate will be required to attend 4 assessments - pre-treatment (week 0), mid-treatment (week 8), post-treatment, and a 4th assessment for a 3 month Follow-up. All children regardless of condition will follow the CCBT protocol (Camp Cope-A-lot), which is the computer-assisted intervention being examined in this study. The first 6 levels of this program are skill building levels to be completed by the user. The remaining 6 levels are completed with the therapist and consist of exposure tasks and rehearsal geared toward each child.
