School Issues

Serving clients at Lakewood · Centennial · Northglenn · Telehealth available statewide in Colorado
School is where children spend most of their waking hours—and for many, it’s a significant source of stress, anxiety, or conflict. Whether your child is struggling academically, socially, or emotionally in school, therapy can help identify what’s getting in the way and build skills to thrive.

Signs You May Benefit from School Issues Support

  • Refusing to go to school or frequent absences
  • Anxiety about tests, grades, or performance
  • Difficulty with teachers, peers, or school rules
  • Declining grades despite effort
  • Behavioral problems in the classroom
  • Bullying, social exclusion, or conflict with classmates

Our Treatment Approach

We assess academic, emotional, and social factors contributing to school struggles. We use CBT, school refusal protocols, and coordinate with school counselors and teachers with parental consent to create a consistent support environment.
