Now You Can Develop Therapeutic Teacher Skills
To learn how to cope with stressful or troublesome events, build positive attitudes and effective life skills, and achieve their social and academic goals, schools provide the ideal environment in which classroom teachers and related services personnel with the adequate training can teach psycho-educational skills to children. Teaching psycho-educational skills to students relates directly with the role of schools in preparing children to function effectively and to deal competently with society’s demands. When we teach psycho-educational skills to students, we are giving them the ability to understand and self-manage emotions and behavior, and we are assisting them in developing resilience in coping with further troublesome events along the road.
Unfortunately, a great deal of this very much-needed information from the psycho-educational literature never reaches teachers. In this psycho-education skill-building series, we recognize and address this need. Now we can train teachers to resolve students’ behavior problems by applying therapeutic techniques based on psycho-educational principles. Grounded in the author’s strong psychological and educational background and expertise, the psycho-education skill-building series takes full advantage of current psychological and educational theory and research to train teachers in the child guidance techniques they need to become skillful behavior managers and behavior change promoters.

Cognitive psychology adds that, although we cannot change what happened (the event), we can change the way we think about
