School Refusal & Resistance: Strategies that Work When Nothing Else Has – Live Webinar

School refusal can range from subtle to loud and dramatic. It might look like daily stomachaches, missed buses, or quiet withdrawal – or it can escalate to emotional meltdowns, outright aggression, or fleeing school mid-day.

Behind these behaviors are often deep emotional barriers – not defiance, but distress.

You witness parents and educators grappling with uncertainty, desperate to help as students become trapped in a cycle of avoidance – one that fuels anxiety, depression, and academic disengagement.

Led by Susan Haarman, LCPC, a seasoned expert in adolescence, trauma, and school-based care, this course delivers practical, collaborative strategies for addressing school refusal in even the most challenging cases.

In this training, you’ll gain:

• Accurate Assessment Tools – Improve diagnostic clarity and select the right interventions for each student.
• Personalized Intervention Plans – Utilize templates designed to create effective, individualized school refusal strategies.
• Deeper Understanding of Root Causes – Address the role of family dynamics, cultural expectations, and environmental stressors in school refusal behavior.
• Evidence-Based Treatment Approaches – Learn how cognitive-behavioral therapy, family systems interventions, and pharmacological options can support school reintegration.
• Collaborative Strategies – Work effectively with parents and educators to build a compassionate, non-punitive plan that fosters attendance and emotional well-being.

This interactive training goes beyond theory, delving into real-life case studies and actionable solutions. Through expert insights and practical applications, you’ll leave with a toolbox of interventions designed to help students shift from avoidance to engagement.
