Hi,
Meet the Expert
Ange Mcmillan
If you feel the current narrative telling young people struggling with anxiety and school attendance barriers to just “get on with it and go back to school”? is missing the mark completely, please know you're not alone.
I don't believe shaming children, blaming parents or cookie-cutter approaches work.
We need to focus on co-production, personalisation and being child and family-led.
I’m Ange, accredited counsellor, trainer, coach and researcher, working mainly with neurodivergent young people and their families. I have my own lived experience, including homelessness, anxiety and trauma.
I believe passionately that we need to be doing things differently to support young people and created a course to help youth professionals offer support for young people experiencing barriers to school attendance.
