High-achieving student seems fine. Report card shows struggle. Parents say 'doing okay.' But student is masking hard, anxious, and on the edge of breakdown. How do you see the invisible struggle?

Success hides suffering.

How do you spot students who are masking?

Unmasking in one safe place first made all the difference for me. You don't have to do it everywhere at once.
