Parent Support Group for Middle Schoolers with Anxiety and Social Struggles (COVID Kids Edition

Because parenting a tween who missed those early school years during COVID is harder than anyone expected.

Schedule a Consultation

You’re not failing. Parenting COVID kids is different.

If your middle schooler was in kindergarten, 1st, or 2nd grade during the pandemic, you’ve seen the ripple effects. Maybe your child is:

  • Freezing up or melting down in social situations
  • Getting calls home about anxiety, avoidance, or “behavior issues”
  • Struggling with friendships and confidence
  • Overreacting emotionally in ways that feel younger than their age

And you’re left wondering: How do I help them without making it worse?

What This Group Offers

This isn’t a lecture or another parenting book collecting dust. This is a 10-week, small parent group (just 7 spots) where you’ll learn, share, and leave with tools that actually work. Together we’ll:

  • Learn how to calm your child’s social anxiety without shaming or bribing
  • Find language that helps them open up (without the eye rolls)
  • Balance compassion with clear boundaries
  • Rebuild your confidence as a parent so you feel less reactive and more grounded

Why Group Support Works

Parenting in the COVID-era feels like uncharted territory. Hearing “mine does that too” from other parents lifts the weight off your shoulders. In this group, you’ll swap strategies, gain perspective, and walk away knowing you’re not alone.
