[How can school phobia be treated?]

What treatment is appropriate for 'school phobia'? The treatment of anxious school refusal in adolescence is necessarily multidisciplinary. It is often necessary to temper the sense of urgency associated with the anxiety of having to leave school. The reintroduction of schooling in parallel with the treatment process takes place in stages, particularly when the anxious refusal to attend school has become established. At the Maison de Solenn in Paris, several different types of treatment are offered, each of which complement the other. It is essential to adapt the timing of the various forms of care (day hospital, individual or group psychotherapy, family or multi-family therapy) and projects (study care) to what the young person and his or her family can effectively invest in, in line with the underlying problem.
