Burnt Out by School?

Image for Burnt Out by School?

Things have gone wrong at school for your teenager, and now it’s like they have nothing left.

They’re spending their lives in their bedroom.  They have lost their sense of what made life worth living.  You don’t know how to help, and sometimes it seems like whatever you do makes things worse.  They seem angry and defensive, as well as sad and lacking in energy.

In this course Naomi will help you:

  • Learn what can go wrong at school for young people
  • Understand why this can be so damaging for their mental health and learn about psychological theories to understand better what is going on. 
  • Apply practical ideas to help.

Your child isn’t happy at school. They are protesting in the mornings, or having meltdowns in the afternoons. They tell you that they don’t want to go, and you feel torn between them and the school. School are telling you that the answer is to keep pushing, as you don’t want to reinforce avoidance or behaviour. It’s starting to dominate everything about your family life, and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better.
