If your child experiences anxiety or frequent worries, there’s a new digital tool that could offer gentle, effective support—right from your own home.
Lumi Nova: Tales of Courage is an interactive game designed for children aged 7 to 12 with mild to moderate anxiety.
It works on most smartphones and tablets and is already helping families across the country.
What makes Lumi Nova unique is that it feels like a game, but it’s based on proven therapeutic techniques.
As children go on exciting space-themed adventures, they learn how to face their fears in small, manageable steps.
This approach, known as graded exposure, is a key part of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and it helps children build confidence and resilience over time.
Parents are encouraged to support their child’s journey through the game, helping them reflect on their progress and celebrate their achievements.
The experience is designed to be age-appropriate, non-stigmatising, and empowering – giving children the tools to manage their anxiety in a way that feels natural and engaging.
Lumi Nova also allows authorised professionals to track progress and outcomes, ensuring that the right support is in place when needed.
However, it’s important to note that Lumi Nova is not suitable for children with severe anxiety, those in crisis, or those at risk of self-harm without clinical supervision.
If you’re unsure whether it’s right for your child, it’s best to speak with a healthcare professional first.
