Training that builds adult capacity under pressure.

Supporting education leaders and teams to manage stress, strengthen consistency, and respond effectively to behavior.

Session Topics for Educators

  • Our school mental health system is in crisis. In this session, we start with a thought-provoking activity to understand the underlying issues, though instead of getting stuck in the problems, we’ll focus on solutions. You will learn tools + strategies to manage your own mental health and well-being while effectively responding to staff + student needs. Ultimately, you will leave this session with excitement to lead a Thriving School Community and will have 2-3 practical tools to share that simply integrate into daily practice.

  • Students with common mental health issues such as ADHD and anxiety, have difficulty with focus, impulse control, and behavior regulation. These behaviors can cause overwhelm for teachers. This session equips K-12 educators with practical, evidence-based tools to create a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment. You’ll learn how to confidently prevent and respond to challenging student behavior using clear structure, positive reinforcement, and trauma-informed strategies that work in varied classroom settings.

  • Why does anxiety seem to dominate today’s workplace? What’s really happening in our minds and bodies when stress hits, and why do avoidance and overwhelm become our default? In this session, participants will explore the science behind stress responses and gain practical strategies to manage stress reactions and improve performance. Through real-world examples and neuroscience-based insights, they’ll walk away with tools to begin to master self-control, sharpen focus, and strengthen emotional regulation so they can thrive under pressure in high demand work environments.

  • Students with ADHD often struggle with focus, impulse control, and behavior regulation, especially in traditional classroom settings. This session equips K-12 educators with practical, evidence-based tools to create a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment. You’ll learn how to confidently prevent and respond to ADHD-related behavior challenges using clear structure, positive reinforcement, and trauma-informed strategies that work in varied classroom settings.

  • Teachers are being asked to do more with less, often within systems that unintentionally increase overload instead of reducing it. This session explores innovative instructional strategies and practical systems that help educators reduce overwhelm, improve efficiency, and decrease workload stress without adding one more thing to their plates. Participants will learn how to rethink outdated responses to student behavior, strengthen classroom systems, and use collaborative approaches that create more sustainable and supportive teaching environments. Grounded in The Language of Behavior framework, this session offers practical tools educators can apply immediately to improve classroom flow, reduce reactive cycles, and respond with greater confidence and consistency. Participants will also explore how school leaders can support the implementation of shared practices across teams, strengthening collaboration and creating more consistent responses to student behavior.

  • This session introduces a school-based framework designed for mental-health professionals and educators who work with students engaging in non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). We break down intervention into three actionable domains. Grounded in neuroscience of emotion regulation and trauma-informed practice, the Triple A model enables school staff to move beyond reactivity toward a structured, proactive, and integrated approach. Through this framework, school teams build a consistent protocol that honors the student’s dignity, addresses biological and psychological underpinnings of NSSI, and aligns with best-practice risk-reduction strategies.

  • Students with common mental health issues such as ADHD and anxiety, have difficulty with focus, impulse control, and behavior regulation. These behaviors can cause overwhelm for teachers. This session helps you provide K-12 staff and students with practical, evidence-based tools to create a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment.

  • Why does anxiety seem to be so prevalent these days? Avoidance is a typical response (for both staff + students), which becomes unproductive and further overloads school counselors within the overwhelmed education system. In this session, I will provide schools counselors with resources to share with students and staff about the stress response system in the brain and body, tools to coach teachers when approached with student behavior issues, and practical strategies to utilize in skill-building groups to mitigate this pressing issue.

  • Students with ADHD often struggle with focus, impulse control, and behavior regulation, especially in traditional classroom settings. This session helps you equip K-12 educators with practical, evidence-based tools to create a calm, inclusive, and engaging learning environment.

  • When school communities experience loss, counselors are called upon to provide support for students. But what about teachers who struggle? Learn how to help them carry unspoken grief while still showing up for their students. This session gives you trauma-informed tools to support staff with compassion and structure while protecting their well-being and fostering connection.
