Separation Anxiety
Separation anxiety is a disorder which a child becomes excessively anxious when separated from their parents/caregivers. Children with separation anxiety struggle to think about anything but the present fear of separation. They may be reluctant to go to school, parties, other places, or even experience nightmares or regular physical complaints. A new environment, with new people and new routines can be challenging for your child. For more reading, and great tips-
Please reach out to any of the staff members at Holy Cross for a referral form if you
would like your child to receive support.
