Fears and phobias

A young girl sits at a desk, looking at a CBT worksheet titled 'My Bravery Plan' on a laptop screen. The worksheet includes a step-by-step exposure plan and a fear rating scale to help children manage phobias.

CBT worksheets for children's phobias.

Some children may experience anxiety manifesting as an intense fear associated with particular places, objects, or situations.

Graded exposure is a core, evidence-based CBT technique recommended by the NICE guidelines for the treatment of specific phobias in children.

CBT Hub's resources are specifically designed to help practitioners engage children with exposure and habituation tasks. They include:

  • Exposure hierarchy templates to break fears into manageable steps

  • Planning and review worksheets to support exposure tasks and track progress

  • Child-friendly graphics, language and examples to make the process engaging and accessible
