Your presentation was extremely rich in material. So many practical ways to deal with things, heal and help others. The in-session breathing exercise was great. Thanks so much! Loved it! FA, GT adult,GT parent. SENG Conference 2015.
Extremely rich material
I like how you teach describe the intensity of your emotions like different colored flags flying on a beach. Also, I like how the part about does the color of your flag match what’s actually happening on the beach helps refocus. Attendee CAGT 2016
What color flag
Honestly, this really helps me understand myself a lot better. I learn that I can heal myself and find my place in life. I feel that I’m not alone with my feelings and sensitivity. Thank you so much!

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
