Rebound & Recovery: A Cognitive Behavorial Resiliency ProgramA cognitive behavioral intervention comprised of professional certifications and curriculums that focuses on early childhood through adolescence. With Rebound & Recovery, children and teens learn about what their emotions are, how they are connected to their thoughts and actions, and how to regulate their emotions while understanding and reframing their thoughts.
There is a direct correlation between children’s and adolescents’ ability to regulate and understand their emotions and thoughts and academic achievements from Preschool to college. Rebound & Recovery is a three-prong approach where the focus is placed on building teacher skills in the classroom, supports are provided for caregivers at home, and the child’s resiliency is strengthened through the use of cognitive behavioral skills to not only regulate their thoughts and emotions, and actions, but empowering them to be advocates for their own well-being and academic success.
