""More than just a book - it's a lifeline for any parent""This is a guide that has been developed to help those responsible for the wellbeing of children experiencing school-based anxiety. It aims to provide support for coping with school refusal and anxiety, using strategies that have been tried, tested, and found to be effective.

""As a parent of a neuro-diverse child at secondary school, who sometimes struggles with getting there, we found this book was perfectly pitched. It has given me a greater understanding. Full of great strategies for both us and our child. Easy to dip in and dip out of when needed, or read cover to cover if you prefer.""

Excerpt from Foreword - by Lisa Spiegel, MA LMHC, Author of Internal Family Systems Therapy with Children""Dr. Claire Stubbs and her co-authors, Hollie and Kit Szabo, have created an easy-to-read and beautifully illustrated handbook for understanding and supporting children who resist or refuse to go to school. Using brain science and an Internal Family Systems approach, this guide brings a compassionate and intelligent lens to see school refusal as a protective mechanism rather than just acting-out behavior.""

Reviews for Emotionally Based School Avoidance: A compassionate and supportive toolkit for you and your child

""As a parent of a neuro-diverse child at secondary school, who sometimes struggles with getting there, we found this book was perfectly pitched. It has given me a greater understanding. Full of great strategies for both us and our child. Easy to dip in and dip out of when needed, or read cover to cover if you prefer. It was just what we needed and I always have it in reach for when I need to reread bits to reflect, refocus and remember.""
