When someone feels safe, they are more likely to explore, connect, communicate, and learn. Every meaningful developmental step is built on a foundation of feeling safe.

Hi there,
Sharing our tween and teen pods at our microschool.

This is an inclusive setting and specifically designed for autistic, neurodivergent(ADHD, mental health diagnoses, learning disabilities, medical complexities) students by using a relational, nervous system regulation facilitated by certified teachers and a licensed mental health therapist.

We're located in St.Pete/Pinellas County close to a 275 ramp

Like Tom Holland, many of us develop strategies over time to help us; especially those of us who were undiagnosed and had to develop these compensation measures on our own.

This is why Dyslexia can look very different in adults, teens, and older children than young children.

Tom Holland, another example of great disability representation.

For many students, especially those who are autistic and ND, attending school in and of itself is traumatic.

Trauma does not have to mean surviving violence, seeing traumatic events, or experiencing abuse.

It can be just be all of these factors occurring for 8 hours a day for 180 days.

This is also called neuroception.

It is the basis for every social, environmental interaction.

For kids who cry or resist going to certain places-school, activities, therapies, relatives, etc- even though "nothing has happened".

This is why.

Their nervous system does not feel safe in that setting.

Ignoring that distress, does not help "make them tougher" or "not be spoiled".

Trauma-Informed Insight Series:
Felt Safety: More Than Being Safe

Felt safety means a child’s brain believes, “I am safe here.”

Steady adults, predictable routines, and trusted relationships help students move from survival mode to learning mode.
