My Students

I am a school counselor in a socioeconomically disadvantaged area. I serve the entire K-12 population. I'm grateful to get to see them grow throughout the years! Many of my students and their families have experienced a lot of trauma. I try to brighten their days as much as possible by bringing fun, creativity, and energy into their lives. My students are bright, energetic, and resilient. I am grateful to work with each of my students and their families. Soon, I will be moving into the community. I hope to help there as much as possible.

My Project

The training I will be receiving is research-driven. Dr. Ilana Nankin’s, the founder and CEO of Breathe For Change, dissertation research has demonstrated the negative impact of educator stress on teaching and learning — and the positive impact that enhancing teacher well-being can have on student social-emotional and academic outcomes.

This training will enhance student social-emotional and academic outcomes.

Students will be able to calm their bodies and minds while gaining strength and flexibility. Breathe For Change includes a powerful SEL*F curriculum that will equip me to embody and facilitate authentic social-emotional learning for students.
