Description
This presentation is intended to introduce school psychologists to the Circle of Security (CoS) model, and explore its adaptation for classroom use. COS is an evidence-based reflective caregiving model, with a goal of cultivating secure attachments by improving caregiver (educator) reflective capacity, specifically when confronted with challenging behavior. Participants will leave with an understanding of the CoS model and how it may be utilized in classrooms for consideration in their practice.
