The focus will be on the potential traumatizing effects of bullying, including placing students at risk for the development of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety problems, and self-harm. There will also be a discussion of the signs that teachers and parents can look for that may suggest that a student is being seriously affected and when to seek professional help. Additionally, evidence-based treatment approaches for students significantly impacted by bullying will be described.
