Episode 9

Is It Reasonable For Educators To Expect Compliance From Their Students?

Many good educators are leaving the profession due to not feeling safe or supported. In Episode 9 of The Bumpy Road to Healing, Traci and Leena discuss the importance of Healthy Compliance and its role in conscience development for children. When educators have expectations for their students, such as following adult directions, not bothering their peers, completing assignments., etc., it is reasonable to expect compliance. Healthy compliance not only helps children mature, but it also provides safety for all students and staff in a school building.

Traci Glover

Traci has been a Licensed Social Worker (ID) since 1994, a Licensed Professional Counselor (ID) since 1999, and a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (CO) since 2021. Traci began work in the mental health profession when she was 22 as a Licensed Social Worker for the Idaho Youth Ranch. She received her Master’s in Education and became a school counselor in 1999.

Since she was fourteen years old, Traci has been interested in the mental health field. Traci spent hours listening to her mom share all she was learning in her continuing education classes about Attachment Disorders. While at the dinner table, she loved hearing her dad talk about how he managed his employees at his construction business. These conversations were critical in her development and love for mental health.

Traci loves helping children face their critical issues and, as a result seeing them grow and become more confident and mature. Due to Traci’s laid-back personality and natural curiosity, children love to talk and share with her. Traci’s gift as a counselor is knowing how to get to the heart of the issue quickly and helping children find understanding, confidence, and healing in their struggles. Traci is an expert at working with school teams, including parents, at gathering all the relevant information needed to solve complex problems. She understands the culture of schools, the needs of parents, and child development in a way that supports implementing effective strategies for long-term healing. Her skills help parents and educators know how to best support their children. Traci loves adding to her foundation of knowledge when it comes to mental health. Her depth of understanding helps her explain this information to others in easy-to-understand terms.

Traci training includes EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), Attachment Therapy, Restorative Justice, Restorative Circles, Love and Logic Parent Education Facilitator, and a Love and Logic School-Wide Discipline Facilitator.

She encourages honesty from the educator, parent, administrator, and student to find appropriate solutions for the school setting and healing for the student involved.

Continuing to expand her knowledge is something that Leena often does. Once she becomes aware of new mental health information, she jumps in with both feet to learn all about it and how to apply it. It helps that she is such a fast reader. Leena loves working with children who have severe emotional and behavioral difficulties and seeing their growth.
