Class Experience

Cultivating social confidence can be a challenge for many students and may interfere with their ability to connect with others, pursue goals, or realize their potential. In this 3-day workshop, I encourage students who may struggle in social situations to see boosting your self-confidence or becoming more assertive as skill sets that anyone can develop with consistent practice. 

I offer practical and easy-to-understand strategies allowing the student to ease into a more comfortable approach when engaging in conversation with others. Further, I encourage a class environment that is supportive and affirming, not tethered by pressure or expectation. Each meeting will be packed with information, including tips and tricks a student may copy and keep for future reference.     

The course schedule is as follows: 

Day 1:  Gaining More Self-Confidence 
Day 2:  Strategies and Tips for Being More Assertive 
Day 3:  Feeling More Comfortable and Confident in Social Situations
 
This class is ideal for students who may struggle in social situations, are reluctant to speak to or with others, and/or lack confidence in themselves. I strive to help students realize their potential in a positive and constructive manner, allowing them to recognize their accomplishments and learn from past experiences. I am happy to work with students with communication challenges, shyness, and social anxiety. 

I will encourage and support dialogue that is open, honest, and beneficial to the discussion.
  
As this is an inclusive workshop, all students are welcome. If your student has special abilities or requires accommodations, please let me know.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from University of South Carolina
I am a former therapist who has worked with children, adolescents, and teenagers in individual and group therapy settings. I began my mental health career employed with a psychiatric hospital before I left to counsel children and their families in a nonprofit community-based program. I then became the on-site Director of an Independent Living Program which assisted teenagers and young adults transitioning into independence. Along with counseling, we provided training for healthy coping skills, assertiveness, and social skills. As someone who has struggled with shyness and feeling awkward in social situations since childhood, I can relate to others who find social situations stressful or attempt to avoid approaching new people or situations. I try to teach students the value of believing in themselves while connecting with others and being a part of a community.
