therapy

Therapy refers to professional support provided by trained practitioners to help individuals address emotional, psychological, or behavioural challenges. Therapeutic approaches may involve counselling, skill-building, trauma processing, or other strategies that support mental health and well-being. In education contexts, therapy may be recommended when students are experiencing anxiety, trauma, or other challenges that affect their ability to participate in school. While therapy can help individuals develop coping strategies, it does not replace the responsibility of institutions to address the environmental conditions contributing to distress.
