Children are only able to access their highest levels of learning when their brain/body is calm and their most important needs are met. These tools and resources are for my counseling office where children of all ages, PK-5, come to self-regulate, problem solve, practice mindfulness and share strong emotions. Creating these relationships and guiding our children through social emotional learning will will help create an environment where students feel safe, are risk-takers in their learning and feel proud of their achievements.
"The more healthy relationships a child has, the more likely he will be to recover from trauma and thrive. Relationships are the agents of change and the most powerful therapy is human love."
A quote by Dr. Bruce Perry, a renowned child psychologist, sums up what I hope to create at our school-- a space to form positive relationships with our most needy children.
