In this episode, we discuss how to mentally prepare your middle and high school student with food allergies for Back-to-School. There is quite a bit taking place in this age group and Emery Brown, nationally certified school psychologist and FAACT’s Director of Behavior Health, helps us understand how to support and encourage good mental wellness. Emery provides insight on what is taking place developmentally with students and how to help through understanding.
