• This 18-hour foundational course dives deeply into understanding the context in which learning is taking place. Neuroscience can help us understand what is happening for educators and students in moments of dysregulation, so teachers can learn how to support regulation for students and classrooms. You’ll learn to use brain and body state awareness to guide you in applying strategies and learn how to talk to others about the science behind the strategies you’re using. Exploring an embodied approach, we’ll focus on safety and belonging, along with promoting reflective self-awareness, all vital pieces in creating new options for behavior. Welcome, we are excited to share this journey with you.

    "This is one of the best courses I've participated in. The depth of information and understanding of how to relate to students is invaluable. It was presented in ways that benefit both educator and student and gave me realistic strategies. It's also the first course I've taken that actually made it ok for the teacher to be human, too. I'm already seeing results with my students!" - Janet G. Franks, NBCT/ENS, EdS (Teacher, Lakeside Intermediate School) Want to know more? Watch this teaching short clip from the course here.

  • This Free Webinar was recorded on January 12th, 2023 and is for educators and school professionals! Without the ability to self-regulate, students can't apply other SEL skills or shift their behaviors. Explicit teaching isn't enough. Students need bottom up co-regulatory experiences to learn to self-regulate. Doing this effectively isn't easy and takes practice This free 1 hour webinar will teach you the process for helping students borrow your regulatory capacity as they develop their own. Learn tools that support you in embodying regulation as you teach students and classrooms to regulate through challenges.  ​​​​​​​ And the best part is, what you learn can be applied one-on-one, in groups, or with the whole classroom. Scroll below for details.
  • This Free Webinar was recorded on August 10th, 2023 and is for all educators and professionals working with students! Providing students with a sense of security can be challenging without understanding how the brain perceives safety and threat ... 
    • Have you spent hours trying to create a warm environment, yet still find your students wanting to leave the classroom?​​​​​​​
    • Do you have good relationships with your students, yet still have some responding to you negatively?
    • Have you had students seemingly "lose it" over what appear to be small issues?
    Register for this free webinar and learn how the brain perceives safety and threat so you can support a sense of safety and belonging for your students this school year.  Scroll below for details.
  • This Free Webinar was recorded on May 10th, 2023 and is for all professionals working with students! As professionals working with students, it's been a long year. Many of us have spent much of it trying to make sense of students' behaviors Maybe even feeling helpless, or angry, not knowing exactly what to do next. We understand your dilemma and don't want you to spend the summer and next year, asking the same questions. Register for this free webinar to explore how behaviors, even those we don't love, can provide a roadmap explaining what's going on AND what we can do about it. If you're asking, “but what if the behavior is disrupting learning for other students?” Great question! We’ll chat about that too.  Scroll below for details.
  • This Free Webinar was recorded on August 10th, 2022 and is for educators or anyone that works in schools. Stress and anxiety are impacting everyone, making teaching and learning very challenging. To support a healthy learning environment for all of us, we must address our own stress and anxiety first. None of us can be effective when our brains and bodies are overwhelmed. Neuroscience can help us understand what is happening in moments of dysregulation. More importantly, it can guide us in moving through the stress and keeping ourselves healthy. ​​​​​​​Why does this matter? When we make choices instead of simply reacting, we decrease the likelihood of behaviors escalating for both us and our students!  Scroll below for details.
  • This Free Webinar was recorded on July 28, 2022 and is for SEL coaches, behavior support specialists, clinical and school-based mental health professionals (school counselors, social workers, and psychologists), and others that collaborate with educators. Working with educators at varying levels of understanding and buy-in of trauma-informed, inclusive, SEL practices, is challenging! This was always Judy Norman, LPC, LSC, RPT-S's biggest challenge as an SEL Coach. She realized that she needed to meet each educator where they were developmentally, just like she was asking them to do with students – what a paradigm shift for her! Hence, the birth of a DEVELOPMENTAL MINDSETS PARADIGM.™ This information will help you quickly identify where an educator might be along a developmental continuum. This can guide you in understanding where to start conversations, and how to move forward. Viewing adults’ behavior from a non-critical lens (again, what we are asking them to do with students) supports their growth and empowerment. ​​​​​​​This will amplify our work with students, and support building capacity in our schools!
