Conquering Exam Stress For Therapists
Exam stress is a growing concern for teenagers, impacting both their mental health and academic performance. Almost a third of secondary school pupils avoid going to school due to heightened stress and anxiety. A recent release by The Guardian showcases that across the UK, 28% 12-18 year olds have not been at school for the past year due to not being able to cope with their stress levels. As a therapist, supporting teenagers through these stressful periods is essential to their overall well-being. To better equip professionals in this field, we have some exciting news; we’ve launched a new, CPD-accredited course on Thinkific, designed to help therapists develop specialised skills for managing teenagers who are dealing with stress from exams.

The course on supporting teenagers through exam stress is specially designed for professionals looking to expand their practice. Here’s what you can expect:
Why Supporting Teenagers Through Exam Stress Matters
Teenagers face immense pressure during exam seasons, leading to stress, anxiety, and, in some cases, more severe mental health issues like depression. As therapists, it’s crucial to understand how to alleviate these pressures and offer practical, evidence-based solutions. At Donna Morgan Counselling, we have created a course aimed to fill this gap by providing therapists with the tools to help teenagers thrive despite academic challenges.
