Testimonials
"Healing Children provided our school with an amazing wellness tool, Toxic Thinking 101. Leena and Traci broke down the topic into pieces that all students can understand. They normalized something that is so damaging for many students and offered a way out. Their information has the potential to be a life-changer for many students. I highly recommend them for any project addressing students, wellness, and mental health."

“This class has helped me to understand the underlying problems of a struggling child and has made me want to be more compassionate and patient with the child.
I learned that I shouldn’t blame the child for the problems and I needed to be more sensitive to the situations at home. I can now help parents understand their child better."
