Brittany & Zach are joined by therapist Nicole Fryling from West Michigan Wellness Group & the Through Rough Waters Podcast to talk about back-to-school season, including:

  • What does back-to-school anxiety look like in our kids? How can parents recognize this?
  • How can parents and kids alike work through the "new" of going to school for the first time?
  • What are some ways parents can create a loving environment at home to help manage school anxiety?
  • When should parents reach out for professional help, whether that's therapy or to the school counselor?
