What Teachers and Schools are Saying

“Every year I seem to get more behavioral problems than before and I was finding myself not knowing what to do and becoming frustrated with myself as well as the child. I now feel as if I can continue with my career in teaching because I was beginning to feel defeated. I now have strategies to try, several people in my school that I go to and have discussions about what is working and what is not working and a deeper understanding of these children coming into my classroom. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!"

“I think every educator, including administrators, should be required to take this course as part of their certification requirements."

“Now, when I get out of my car I grab my bag and say, “you got this!” Thank you!!!! I love your research mindset and care of students and staff. I feel uplifted. I am a GOOD teacher and I can state the truth about kids in a kind way to parents and administrators."

As a new or seasoned employee of education this training has incredible value! The materials are engaging and practical for all educators including counselors, teachers, school principals, school psychologists, behavior support specialists and paraprofessionals. Tools can be taken from this training and be directly applied with examples of behavior plans. I highly recommend this course to all staff!!

This training was incredibly insightful and helped to shed some light on what to do to tackle some behavior issues in the classroom. Thank you!

I absolutely loved the material that was presented to WSD! I learned about different resources that I could implement as both an educator and a mother. Thank you so much for your time!

I absolutely loved this training. As a para and future certified educator, it helped give me more insight into the processes used to help those students who are struggling and need the extra support. I’m very excited for the next part of this training.

This course is EXCELLENT. I really appreciate the information & insight both Leena & Traci offered. The examples they shared from their own personal experiences really helped me to better understand what they taught & I was able to implement these ideas in my own classroom! I have seen GREAT success using the 5 Minute Plan, sitting strong & setting boundaries with my students. Their dialogue with each other & the way they presented all of the information throughout the course using movie clips, diagrams, various experiences, etc. kept me very engaged & wanting MORE!! If you work with children in ANY capacity (parenting, teaching, coaching, daycare...etc.), this course is a must!!

I took 4 pages of notes! This is a very valuable class for all school personnel, I'm so excited to implement some new strategies this year!

Participated in the two-day Healing Discipline workshop and it was great! Lots of helpful strategies and ways to reframe/rethink about discipline and accountability in schools. The presenters were engaging, professional, and had years of experience in schools. I appreciate that they’re still in schools now so they know what we’re going through and can relate better than speakers who haven’t been in a class for years. Highly recommended for K-12 educators, you will definitely learn something new.

Traci and Leena kept the group's attention for 2 days, all day at the end of our spring break. The information and strategies they shared, painted a picture of how teachers can manage student behavior in a way that makes sense and can help students grow controlling their own behavior so they can learn. Amazing!

This was amazing! I came away with new concrete strategies! I also appreciated the humor and experience and knowledge these ladies brought to the seminar!

Very helpful training! I loved the movie clips that were used as introductions to several sections. The information is relevant for working in a school. I've encouraged several of my colleagues to take the training as we are starting to plan our next school year. The more people in the building who have this information, the better.

Healing Children" was by far one of the most useful seminars that I have attended in the past several years. I can't wait for part II to be offered, I've already planned on attending (yes, even if it is Saturday again!). The impact on healthy development and stages of psychosocial development for children through adult years was astonishing, even staggering at points when you consider the effect growing up in our covid/post covid world, compounded with the wide range of families and children we work with. I really enjoyed the aspect that this conference was focused on 'every' child's (and adults) needs, not just kids at risk. Thank you so much for sharing your years of experience with us!

I loved that I could sync my speaker and listen while cleaning! The slide presentations were not overwhelming and were explained clearly. I also liked the inclusion of video snippets that helped to reinforce the message being taught. If you are looking for university credits, it was a very painless experience.
