What to Do When Your Child’s Tummy Hurts and No One Can Find Why: Understanding Functional GI Disorders and How to Help

About this event

Two dates to choose from...join us on either September 30th (evening) or October 9th (daytime

Does this sound familiar? “We’ve been to four doctors. They all say nothing is wrong. But my child is still in pain every single day.”

Tummy aches and GI distress are not uncommon in children, especially in anxious ones! Very often, parents begin looking for a solution to help their child's distress, only to be told that "everything is normal." This can lead to conflict within the family on how to handle to tummy aches, a quest to find the source of the discomfort with multiple "treatments" and family accommodations that impact school, activities, social events and other family members. FGID makes a child's world smaller and holds parents hostage. 

WE KNOW HOW TO HELP! With a combined 50+ years of experience helping anxious families, Lynn Lyons and Mindy Szelap are teaming up to tell you WHAT TO DO. 

Here's what you'll walk away with:

  • Why your child is in real pain even when tests are normal
  • How anxiety and the gut are wired together — and why that’s good news
  • The cycle that keeps symptoms going — and your role in breaking it
  • What to say (and stop saying) during a flare
  • Why accommodation backfires — and what to do instead
  • Five concrete steps you can start this week

You have two sessions to choose from, one during the daytime hours and one in the evening. Both sessions are the same, so choose the one that works best for your schedule. One ticket for the family, so parents can attend together (which we HIGHLY recommend!)
