Social Emotional Learning

Coaching Parents and teachers working with Children and Young Adults

Good role modeling is an essential goal in this program for students, teachers, administrators, and parents. Children learn to develop more confident interaction and assessment skills with an emphasis on positive outcomes, healthy boundaries, and critical support. Personal discipline is all about positive talking structures, based on reflection, guiding narratives, and higher levels of role responsibility inside and outside the school.

Working with vulnerable children and adults demands different standards and a more sensitive approach to a lack of or lowered levels of resilience. In a vital and vibrant group such as a classroom immediately following the lock down related to COVID-19, we are finding that many children and young adults are contending with an inability to socialize with good boundaries and necessary analytical skills. This is not a mystery and almost every parent or teacher can concur.

My work is based on the Cognitive Behavioral methods I developed from decades of client work detailed in my book, Changing Habits: A Hand for Positive Transitions, 2017. I created an easy-to-use system for self-agency and reflection. This method works as well for ending childhood bullying and Zoom numbness as it does for adults dealing with confrontation. Classrooms are drawn to the simplicity of a system that works as well with children as it does with multiply-diagnosed adults.
