Because the skills are quite fundamental and may be completely new for some kids, we recommend at least one session per week which follows the school semester length (though summer is available as well); Many families chose to repeat the program because practicing the skills in a personalized and realistic way, there is always improvement to be had as development continues and new challenges arise.

The format of SEL Coaching Sessions typically involves interactive activities, discussions, role-playing, and mindfulness exercises tailored to the child's needs and goals.

SEL Coaching focuses on developing social and emotional skills, resilience, and autonomy in children through interactive activities and mindfulness techniques. Mental health therapy, on the other hand, typically addresses clinical diagnoses and treatment of mental health conditions.
