Adulting, Coping, and Emotional Maturity: A Class on Managing Yourself
Class experience

I have observed the students in a variety of activities and interactive discussions on this topic. I also taught coping skills as part of an Activities of Daily Living Skills series in a mental health setting, however, this course is not intended as any type of counseling.
