Welcome to the first of two episodes on Emotionally Based School Avoidance - or EBSA - a subject that many families find challenging.
We find out why EBSA is so often misunderstood as truancy or refusal, when in fact it's about anxiety and emotional distress, making school feel overwhelming or even impossible for so many young people.
We're joined by two amazing experts: Dr Tina Rae, an educational and child psychologist, passionate about helping children and parents; and Dr Leanne Johnson, a consultant clincial psychologist and Head of Trauma Informed Practice.
In this empowering pod we explore:
What EBSA is
The causes of EBSA
What parents and schools can do to support young people struggling with EBSA
