“As a teacher and mentor working with at-risk students, I am always looking to find tools to meet their needs.
I see the SEI-YV as a giant step toward reaching the affective needs and behavior issues that cause many of our students to struggle. I love the fact that it is an action model rather than just another diagnostic label. It creates a path of action to help students immediately. I see many applications for students in all settings.
Getting the certification training for the SEI-YV will allow me to use this wonderful tool to support students and parents in reaching goals for change and ultimately success in their lives.”

“The SEI-YV certification training has given me a firm foundation in using the SEI-YV assessment tool, as well as a heightened awareness of both its potential applications and the sensitivities involved in dealing with youth clientele.
With her keen sensitivity and wealth of experience, Debbie is an invaluable guide through this training process. My experience with the SEI-YV training was yet further proof that the Six Seconds team walks the EQ walk in all they do.”
--Kate Saunders Cooper
“I knew what I wanted to offer schools and how I wanted to work with students but didn’t how what tool would get me in the door. The SEI-YV is an excellent way to begin a conversation with students and teachers about what is truly valuable to them in the learning process. The SEI-YV gives me the voice for a transformational relationship with students that leads them to greater self awareness, self management and social success. I know this will enhance the skills and academic outcomes for many students.”
--Dana Castonguay
"Having official training in the SEI-YV will allow me to use this important and sensitive tool with a high level of confidence. I feel passionately that this invaluable tool will help the kids I work with to learn about themselves and ultimately know themselves in ways that will make them more effective in their lives. It is a gift to be able to help them with that process."
