Lucy Nathanson is a child therapist and selective mutism specialist who creates resources on selective mutism (SM). SM is an anxiety disorder whereby a child is unable to speak in certain situations. Lucy's videos cover a range of topics e.g. what is selective mutism, what causes selective mutism, characteristics of selective mutism and treatment / therapy.
Her resources are useful for parents and teachers.
Her online courses cover other topics, such as, is selective mutism caused by trauma? (the difference between SM and traumatic mutism), the diagnostic criteria of SM in the DSM and that children can have co-morbid diagnoses e.g. with autism, OCD etc.).

Confident Children offers online sessions for parents and teachers internationally and they deliver therapy for children, including intensive therapy.
