With each hat I wore, the same issue came up again and again.
The most essential skills – effective core skills to support the kids in real life – were falling through the cracks.
The kids were suffering.
Our kids need to be properly trained in Social Emotional Learning. They need these skills for their proper development as kids, and then as adults.
Therapists are trained in SEL delivery, but they don’t have enough time with each child to make a real difference.
Teachers have ample time to influence students, but most of them aren’t trained to deliver SEL. If they are, they rarely have TIME or energy to do so.
Wasn’t there a better way?
Honestly, there wasn’t.
Every lead led to a dead end.
I found SEL programs.
I found therapeutic techniques.
But no approach supported students from therapy sessions to classroom lessons to real life.
So I created that elusive better way.
I began to develop a curriculum that was easily integratable.
I distilled the work I was doing in my 1:1 sessions with kids into a structured method that both teachers and therapists could incorporate into their every interaction with the students. My goal was to create a consistent model that would prove efficient and effective in both therapy sessions and the classroom.
Skills for Connection is the culmination of those years of work.
I train therapists to do two things:
properly teach SEL during their sessions
train teachers to easily incorporate these constructs into what they’re already teaching.
By default, the teachers personally develop the SEL skills they’re teaching, enabling them to deal with challenging classroom behavior.
It’s a win-win-win.

Improve Parent-School Collaboration
We’re all on the same page when it comes to our kids’ benefit, right?
Unfortunately, not always.
We train therapists to give over the SEL RTI methodology to parents and teachers, resulting in a results-driven, cohesive team.
Plus, everyone involved gains from these skills. |

Integrate with Existing Classroom Curricula
Schools have so much on their academic agenda.
Which teacher has extra time or emotional energy to teach an additional curriculum, even one as integral to a child’s development as SEL? They’re already expressing burnout.
Our trainings bridge the gap between the two priorities, with SEL constructs that fit seamlessly into traditional classroom curricula at every grade level. |

“Even my lowest functioning student is able to grasp the concept.”
It’s a shame I didn’t see this a year ago. My students this past year faced numerous social-emotional challenges, and these tools would have helped them so much. Now that I have the skills, I can use them with my upcoming class. What I love most about the training is that even my lowest functioning student will be able to grasp the concepts!

“You don’t need a separate curriculum to teach these key skills.”
My job as a therapist is to arm my students with communication skills, emotional awareness and regulation, and sensitivity training. When you try to teach these fundamentals as a separate curriculum, you’ve already lost – because who has time for “extracurricular activities”?
Miriam figured out what we’ve all been waiting for: how to seamlessly integrate these constructs into the existing classroom curriculum. With Skills for Connection, you don’t need a separate curriculum to teach these key skills to the kids. — Ahuva Maimon, LCSW, CASAC |
