One consideration might be social anxiety. Some children show signs of it in infancy. Others never meet a stranger, then during the early school years something happens and they seem to become very timid. Even frozen in a group of people. And it's hard for a child. in fact, it's hard for anyone. It interferes with school attendance, confidence to perform publicly, making friends, and "fitting in."
Anxiety isn't a sign of cowardice, or weakness, but rather the result of something happening in the child's brain. Sometimes medication can be helpful, but first, the child needs a workup to determine any unseen factors. Then counseling with the child and parents to help him feel safe initially. With holistic mental health treatment strategies we'll work with you to create a plan that includes our services, the family, and teachers.
