School Avoidance & Anxiety with Dr. Carolyne Keenan - BONUS

School Avoidance & Anxiety with Dr. Carolyne Keenan - BONUS

Is your child struggling to get to school? In this bonus episode, psychologist Dr. Carolyne Keenan explains emotion-based school avoidance — why it’s very different from truancy, how anxiety fuels avoidance, and what parents can do to help.

We explore:

  • The difference between truancy and school avoidance

  • Why avoidance eases anxiety short term but worsens it long term

  • How parents can validate emotions while building resilience

  • Practical strategies for supporting children with school anxiety

  • The importance of parental self-care and co-regulation

Whether your child is anxious about school mornings, coping with big emotions, or navigating neurodiversity and sensory sensitivities, this episode offers guidance and hope.
