Trauma-Supportive Classroom
The
Increase student engagement
reduce behaviors
Feel The Calm!
(I'm serious, people!)
Are you completely overwhelmed by disruptive student behavior?
​
Scared of student aggression, outbursts, and frustrated by student work refusal?
​
Have a new student that isn't cooperating and you feel lost on where to even begin?
You know there are underlying issues, but you’re confused on what to try first.
​
You may not want to even admit it, but the behaviors and lack of control you have annoys you.
Parents aren’t supportive and administration keeps pushing the behaviors back on you to 'fix'.
Your team doesn’t understand what you’re going through and the aids in your room only seem to make the issues worse.
You’re exhausted, stuck, and overwhelmed.
I've been there!
Hey!
that's me,
Rachel
I’ve cried in my classroom.
Watched personal materials get destroyed and felt so angry.
Wanted to scream at parents, admin, and co-workers who kept putting more on my plate without supporting me.
I wanted so desperately to show how good of a teacher I was, but couldn't because I was putting out fires all day.
We are the same, teacher friend.
The only difference between us, in this moment, is the methods I used to overcome these frustrations.
picture It!
-->Your students engage in the activities & feel so proud of themselves
​
-->Your classroom is calm
-->You watch your students learn & grow with joy
-->Your team anticipates triggers and know exactly how to intervene
-->You leave your classroom on time feeling accomplished-no cleaning up student destruction
Wait. I want that!
(I want that for you too, friend!)
The only difference between that vision and where you are right now is The Safe Space Method!
​
By enrolling in The Trauma-Supportive Classroom, you’re gaining more time and clarity around supporting student behaviors!
More confidence in how you show up with your most vulnerable students!
Deeper connections to these students and your team!
You’ll see greater academic success and engagement in your classroom with reduced overwhelm, teacher friend!
The
Safe
Space
Method
Sounds great, but how?
(this is where it gets good!)
The Safe Space Method is composed of 5 Modules.
​
-
Groundwork
-
Environment
-
Academics & Behavior
-
Team Roles & Responsibility
-
Holistic Systems
In The Method, we dive deeper, develop connections, and integrate the systems you need now.
​
Less theory, more action!
Truly empowering you to integrate what you're learning.
Let's start by chatting trauma, cortisol, toxic stress, physiology, and ACES! This isn't your usual trauma 101 lesson. You'll get the foundational mindset coaching you need presented in a way, I assure you, you've never heard!
Learn the components that create a trauma-supportive environment. Your classroom environment is more than the set up of your desks and placement of pencils. Learn tools & strategy for crafting a calm environment on every layer.
Learn how to manage disruptive and non-compliant behavior while programming academically. We'll dive into antecedent strategies, why they aren't enough, how to incorporate emotional intelligence, and why teaching emotional regulation alone doesn't lead to behavior change. Whew! This one is good!
Who does what, why, and how? Have a team? Don't have a team? In this module we'll look at all stakeholders involved in a trauma-supportive environment. You'll get strategies for training, tactics for communicating with parents, and ways to keep it all running smoothly. All the stuff they didn't teach you in that last behavior training...
Let's put it all together, shall we? The crux of The Safe Space Method is how we integrate all systems, programs, and stakeholders seamlessly. You'll learn how to do this with intention, plus you'll have the skills to get creative with your systems to meet the individual needs of your students.

Together we can create safe spaces for students with trauma, and reduce your burnout along the way!

I'm a 'tell it like it is' kinda person that'll go to bat for you and your students.

As a special ed teacher, I realized I truly didn't need the "specialists" I was constantly trying to track down. Now, I teach you how to do the same!
I can't wait to work with you.

You might be thinking, I've done this.

Perhaps you’ve done some reading on trauma informed practices.
​
That's not the finish, though. You must become trauma-supportive, not merely informed.
The Safe Space Method is how we get there.

​
-
More time and clarity around supporting student behaviors
-
Increased confidence in how you show up with your most vulnerable students
-
Greater academic success from students
-
Intentional student engagement
-
Deeper connections to your students and team
-
Reduced feelings of overwhelm and burnout for yourself!
​
I can't wait to do it with you!
Got Questions?

​

I’ve asked this exact question...It sucks feeling like you’re the only one who gets it. For that, I applaud you and am rooting for you! We know our students need this, and so do we.

You’ve got the grace to know where you need to dive in, and the confidence to make it happen. The small shifts you’ll implement in The Method will lead to big changes in your students and I promise you, your colleagues will notice. Pretty soon they’ll be asking you how to do what you do! Trust yourself.
I don’t know if I can do this work?
​
Umm, of course you can! I wish I could chat with you face to face right now and tell you that, but trust me, you can do this.
