School refusal and panic: online help when mornings fall apart
In some families, September mornings quickly turn into a battleground of tears, panic and desperate negotiations. A teenager who seemed “fine” in summer now feels unable to walk through the school gate. Online therapy can be a first step when leaving home for additional appointments feels impossible. We take your teen’s fear seriously and work to understand what makes school feel so unsafe: bullying, perfectionism, social anxiety or something else. Together we build a plan that includes both emotional support and practical steps toward change. Parents receive guidance on how to respond in crisis moments without reinforcing avoidance or shaming their child. If your mornings are collapsing under school-related panic, seeking support online can give everyone a bit more stability to work from.
