I loved your practical, therapeutic ideas, and the science behind them. NH, GT educator. SENG Conference 2015.
Practical therapeutic ideas
I like all the steps in the pyramid to help Gifted kids become social-emotional aces. We need more time to learn more about all of this! Attendee CAGT 2016
Steps
I like ACES – how gifted students can become social and emotional ACES. I like the tools you teach to help them do that. Attendee CAGT 2016
ACES
“Since using the Personal Power Pyramid almost very day, we’re recognizing our limits in time to honor them, instead or running right over them like we used to do. This helps us in so many ways.” Mom of 10 year old gifted girl.
Recognizing our limits
Your metaphors are a wonderful way to create and construct meaning. I love the Tune in Tool and waves as a way to monitor the level of emotions. Attendee CAGT 2016
Metaphors
I like how you showed us Jung’s approach and how it means that many gifted have a need to develop personally to a deeper, higher level, and that problems are an “invitation to grow and develop further”. Attendee, CAGT 2016
Jung's approach
Thank you so much! Honestly, this really helps me understand myself a lot better and learn that I can heal myself and find my place in life. I feel that I’m not alone with my feelings and sensitivity. HA 10-19-2014
