BMS SIC Presents: Helping your middle school student deal with anxiety

Greetings BMS Community,

As we head into summer, I wanted to share a fantastic resource we created to help YOU, help your student navigate their anxiety and mental health challenges. It’s 40 minutes and full of great explanations and tips.

"Melissa Swartz, Executive Director of Firm Foundations Counseling and Wellness, joins us for an insightful conversation focused on supporting the mental health of our middle school students. In this video, she helps parents and guardians better understand anxiety, trauma, and fear—explaining the important clinical differences between them and how the brain responds to anxiety. Melissa also shares practical strategies and solutions families can use to help students navigate mental health challenges with greater confidence and support."
