- - - - Symptoms of mental health struggles often present as anger in children and adolescents. When students have angry outbursts or act out in class, it’s often a cry for help. Getting those students the support they need can reduce these behavioral challenges. In addition to receiving treatment for any underlying mental health struggles, students can learn effective communication, build stronger relationships, and engage in self-management in therapy, creating less friction for classroom management and mitigating behavioral challenges.
      - Students need ongoing support as they grapple with the mental health challenges that are amplified with everything going on today. They need support from educators who can identify their struggles and encourage them to get the help they need. It’s clear that the benefits of student therapy can improve students’ well-being, leading them to be more successful in school and in life.

Treatment then moves toward higher levels of speech-motor coordination, giving them a functional avenue to become an effective vocal communicator.
