Letter to Teacher from Parent Seeking Help for Daughter

Dear Teacher and Counselor,

I would like to seek professional help for my daughter, I do not know where to begin. Perhaps you may provide me some support on how to deal with the matter. My daughter as you know is rather strong-willed, at times too stubborn to ask for anyone's help even from me. We have tried talking to her, but she keeps silent about the matter.

I don't expect her to change overnight. I have yet to understand her reason for self-harm. To be honest what she is going through frightens me. I do not want to lose my daughter, I want her to have the help she needs.

Hope you could help me reach out to her.

Sincerely,
Mommy Gina
