Help! My teen is afraid to return to school!

Teens and young adults across the country are facing the upcoming reality of a return to school, work, and social life for the first time in over a year. Many individuals are feeling anxiety about the possible issues that this may bring up, including separation anxiety, vaccination anxiety, social anxiety, and of course the ever-present concern about safety in an increasingly unpredictable world. Our counselors offer a short-term, summer break counseling series to help teens get back in the groove and ready for back to school!

 Parents, are you concerned about your teens as they begin to navigate the return to in-person school and activities? Do they seem more stressed or anxious than usual? Counseling can help!

Are you in middle school or high school and anxious about returning to school in-person? Going back to after-school clubs and teams? Are you worried about spending your days away from home and families? Counseling can help you manage your stress, cope with your anxiety, and make it easier to go back to normal life. 

I am passionate about helping others develop the skills and self-knowledge for the transition back into the in-person world.
