Understanding School Anxiety
School anxiety can show up as reluctance to attend, difficulty concentrating, or a persistent sense of dread about the school day.
How Counselling Helps
A confidential space to talk, away from parents and teachers, can help young people process what's driving the anxiety and build confidence to face it.
At what age can young people start counselling for school anxiety?
We work with children and young people across a range of ages — get in touch and we'll discuss what's right for your child.
Will you communicate with the school?
Only with your consent, and always focused on what's genuinely helpful for your child.
