Testimonials

Abnormal circumstances go with abnormal feelings is the best. I also like gripping something and letting it go to help letting go of emotions. SE, GT Educator. SENG Conference 2015.

Abnormal feelings

I loved the “washing machine” & composting metaphors. I want to learn more. GT adult. SENG Conference 2015

Washing Machine Metaphor

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.

Discipline works better

Your container technique for trauma is the best. HM, SENG Conference 2015.

Container technique

I like the analogy of ocean waves and emotion waves – and that there are degrees of feelings, just like different colored flags on an ocean beach. I want more time to learn about this!

Emotional waves

Great coping skills and still more coping skills! Your understanding is the best. BB. GT educator, GT adult, GT parent. SENG Conference 2015.

Understanding & Coping skills

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

I loved your practical, therapeutic ideas, and the science behind them. NH, GT educator. SENG Conference 2015.

Practical therapeutic ideas

I liked how you walked through the gifted characteristics in a new way. JP
