Separation anxiety is when a child fears being away from their parent or caregiver. They may have it, especially if they’re often upset about not being with you to the point where their anxiety disrupts their lives and others.
This separation anxiety coping skills handout focuses on ways to ease a child’s separation anxiety. Examples include creating a special goodbye ritual and preparing the night before school starts. Keep in mind that while these skills help, they are not meant to replace treatment from a mental health professional.
