This is an asynchronous class, and learners can sign up whenever desired via contacting me, specifying desired start date. I will provide class material during Mondays and Saturdays from 4-8PM PST via my contact details. I tend to respond to learners' questions on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays evenings of Pacific Standard Time. Feedback is given for 10 weeks from start date of class. 

Each week there will be Scriptures to reinforce that week's topic.

Need to improve your self-esteem or gratitude? What about patience or coping skills? Want to lessen your anger and stress? Who is the real you?

It is sometimes hard to talk about these subjects and even harder to make a change in these topics. I am a licensed clinical social worker who loves working with teens and adults to find out how to deal with life and these issues. I also like to make learning fun. In each class a different topic will be covered but additionally we will play a game to help reinforce the topic.

The learner will be looking at their positive qualities, how to be more grateful, focus on the positive, and become aware of possible coping skills, anger management strategies along with breathing and mindfulness skills to improve their patience or lessen their stress.
