Helped to know how/why GT population is more impacted than are others by trauma. Normal response to trauma is good. Thanks for “When to seek counseling”. GT educator, GT parent. SENG conference 2015.
GT population more impacted by trauma
I like how you showed us that gifted students have a more perceptive and more reactive central nervous system – that it’s faster, stronger, more intense. Attendee CAGT 2016
Gifted students have a different CNS
My husband and I have been using the tools you gave us about misbehavior and emotional needs. Discipline is going so much better this way, thank you! Mom of 6 year old highly sensitive child.

Reassuring
Thank you again for everything you have done for both my son and myself! He has been coming home happier than I have seen him in years, and more willing to share about his day at school than ever before. He is setting his alarm clock without reminders, taking showers without reminders, making his lunch, and seeking teachers for clarification of assignments!!!! When I tried to remind him about something last week, he said, “If you want me to be independent, let me be independent and figure it out for myself.” I am so happy that he is taking the initiative on his own! I am thrilled. With deepest appreciation! From the Mom of an 8th/ now 9th grade gifted boy.
Son now taking initiative
She comes across so knowledgeable, caring and I am so happy to have her working with my daughter! She made my daughter feel so comfortable and cared for and is happy to go back and learn all she can from Sharon.
Sharon was wonderful!
Very informative gifted trauma seminar. Great flow to your presentation. by AT, teacher.
Great flow
It’s so good to know that we’re not alone or weird for having these feelings. I liked learning how to process the trauma. Good actionable items for helping my child when overwhelmed. I want a longer session. You have so much to offer. Thank you VERY MUCH! ST, GT adult, GT parent. SENG Conference 2015
Not alone
