Schooling can be a tumultuous time for children and adolescents as they develop as individuals while growing their intellect, social skills, and peer interactions. Children and adolescents may run into various problems in school, including learning disabilities, bullying, anxiety, depression, unhealthy relationships, drugs, and alcohol. When parents feel their child is struggling, they may choose to have them engage in counseling.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions for school issues vary. Therapists work with children, parents, and other health professionals to determine an individual treatment plan. The plan may also include speech-language therapy or skills training for cognitive disabilities or neurodiversity, substance use treatment for drug and alcohol problems, or cognitive and behavioral interventions for anxiety, depression, or peer issues.
