Summary

This nonrandomized pilot study is investigating the efficacy of a modularized treatment for anxiety in children ages 3-7 years old. Eligibility is determined at a baseline assessment, followed by a second baseline assessment one month later. The treatment protocol, Parent-training Intervention for Preschoolers with Anxiety (PIPA), is flexible and allows for individualized treatments based on a treatment algorithm, ensuring that sessions address the most pressing clinical needs of each child. Treatment consists of weekly 60-minute sessions delivered over the course of 12 weeks. Symptom change is tracked weekly during brief phone assessments and a post-treatment assessment will occur following the final treatment session, approximately 12 weeks after starting treatment. Finally, all participants will complete two follow-up assessments, occurring 1-month and 6-months after the final treatment session.

BEHAVIORAL

PIPA

Parent-training Intervention for Preschoolers with Anxiety (PIPA) is a behaviorally based modular treatment program for emotional and behavioral problems in young children. 12 sixty minute sessions will be delivered weekly. This intervention employs a modular format following a treatment algorithm in which therapy modules are selected by the therapist and supervisor on a session-by-session basis to address the most pressing clinical needs. Minimum session requirements for parent training/education and fear hierarchy/exposure are set to insure adequate dose of core exposure and response prevention for anxiety across cases.
