The NFXF & LivJoy Foundation Present the Females with Fragile X Syndrome Webinar Series

Tools & Tactics for Anxiety

Tuesday, April 14, 2026 @ 7 pm ET

Panelists: Rebecca Shaffer, Debra Reisinger, Nicole Tartaglia, Jane Roberts

We have assembled an incredible multidisciplinary panel to address specific questions from families and self-advocates about anxiety: Rebecca Shaffer, Debra Reisinger, Nicole Tartaglia, and Jane Roberts. In this webinar, the discussion will focus on how the identification, management, and treatment of anxiety may differ. We anticipate topics to include what anxiety is, go-to tactics to help acknowledge and address anxiety symptoms, and helpful daily practices.

The Females with Fragile X Webinar Series: We are excited to have a special focus on females, as girls and women sometimes feel neglected and their needs are different. The goal is to address any differences or specifics to females with FXS on how to live a healthy life, both physically and mentally, how to navigate puberty & sexuality, and how to plan for their future.
