reassurable
Able to comfort
Reassurable describes someone capable of being reassured—able to receive comfort or have their doubts calmed.
A reassurable child settles down when a parent explains there are no monsters; an unreassurable one keeps worrying.
The word implies receptiveness to reassurance, suggesting the anxiety can actually be eased rather than being intractable.
