Post-lockdown back to school anxiety is real, and it can affect students, parents, and teachers alike
byArteo
If you’re worried about going back to school, you’re not alone. Back to school anxiety has become a common phenomenon as the UK’s lockdown is lifted, and everyone from students to parents and teachers can experience it.
Anxiety is the most common mental health concern in the UK, affecting people of all ages and genders. Generally, anxiety manifests as a feeling of constant fear and worry, but the symptoms can vary from person to person.
Feeling stressed, anxious, worried, frustrated, sad or lonely is normal during a pandemic. These are frightening times. We’re all watching the headlines wondering when and how this is going to end.

How do I know my child needs counselling?
Children use various methods to signal something is not right, and they differ a lot from adults. Acting out of character or showing signs of rebellion may be considered normal behaviour for a child. Still, such actions can also signal they are going through something they don’t want or don’t know how to talk about. This means it may be time to consider seeking a therapist to help you understand where this behaviour is coming from.
The benefits of Skype counselling
Over the past few years, Skype counselling has become increasingly popular, as it provides a convenient, flexible and affordable form of therapy for people who would otherwise not have the means to see a therapist in their office.
For therapy to be successful, it is essential that you find a counsellor you can openly communicate with and makes you feel safe. This is why finding the right therapist is paramount.
The right therapist should be professional, experienced in treating the type of issues you are facing, welcoming and ready to listen to you. When the counsellor makes you feel safe, it will be much easier for you to relax and open up about whatever issue you might be dealing with.
One of the main reasons people in need of counselling postpone beginning therapy is because they can’t find the time to actually go to a counsellor’s office. Fortunately, technology is now helping us bring therapy closer to those in need.
Online counselling can prove to be a valuable solution for those who can’t find the time or means to go to a brick-and-mortar counselling office.
