Masking & Burnout: 3 Days To Help Your Child Find the Balance That’s Right for THEM… So That Their Energy Goes Into Living, Not Just Coping

 Many neurodivergent children spend enormous amounts of energy trying to "mask" or hide parts of who they are. They might be praised for good behaviour at school, but feel exhausted, disconnected, or even lost at home.

Masking can make children feel safe in the short term—but over time, it can lead to anxiety, burnout, and confusion about who they really are.

This course offers a practical roadmap for parents who want to help their child build a healthy balance: between fitting in when necessary and staying connected to their true self.

What Will This Course Do For You?

✔️ Gain a deeper understanding of your child’s inner world

✔️ Create a home that supports their regulation and authenticity

✔️ Learn language to explain masking to others (and your child)

✔️ Gain confidence to support your child in both social and safe spaces

✔️ Create a sustainable plan that works in just 10 minutes a day

What You’ll Learn:

✔️ How to spot signs that your child is masking—even if they don’t realise it themselves

✔️ Why your child might behave differently at school and at home

✔️ The difference between healthy adapting and harmful pretending

✔️ How to create a safe home environment where masking isn’t needed

✔️ Ways to help your child express their needs and ask for support

✔️ A 3-2-1 Action Plan that keeps everything simple, focused, and sustainable

At the end of the course you will have a deeper understanding of your child's inner world and be confident to support your child in both social and safe spaces, and have a sustainable plan that works in just ten minutes a day!

Bonus extras!

✔️Fillable workbook for assessing barriers and solutions.

✔️Curated resource list of additional support materials.

✔️Community Group accessible within the course to ask questions and get support

Help your teen beat anxiety and live the life they deserve.

I'm Dr Lucy Russell, a UK child clinical psychologist.

I created this course after spending 20+ years helping many hundreds of anxious children transform their anxiety. What I know is that true change doesn't come from simplistic advice like "just breathe deeply" or "push through it."

Imagine your child confidently walking into school without having a panic attack, or finally enjoying a birthday party instead of having to pull out at the last minute. Parents who've used these methods report seeing changes in as little as two weeks.
