Description

Group calls on Discord Sundays at 4pm UTC/ 11 am ET with an optional asynchronous text forum, optional readings, links and integration exercises in between calls. This course supports parents and education facilitators in deepening their understanding of how and why SDE works, and builds their confidence in supporting young people in self-educating.

The course also gives participants the opportunity to network and make friends and find mentors to build their sense of community and support. Real-life troubleshooting helps participants tackle stuck places and difficult issues.

Je’anna also specialises in SDE for Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) which is included as an elective topic.

Call recordings are privately available for signed-up participants who cannot make it to live calls and for purposes of review.
