The Positive Kids Difference
Positive Kids is a revolutionary new concept created by experts in the field of Emotional Intelligence. It is an affordable and private service which focuses on building and developing the social, emotional and cognitive skills of a child through therapy and psycho-educational training. Social and emotional (SEL) skills training within the scope of child therapy has been reported to improve children’s development in the following areas. Self Control, Self-Awareness, Social Awareness, Relationship Skills and Responsible Decision-making. These skill sets are seen to be pivotal in creating success in later adult years. We have personally found that after completing sessions with children, they are experienced by others as more independent, confident, inquisitive, enthusiastic, responsible and compassionate.
