Honoring Greatness with the Nurtured Heart Approach
Tammy Small, M.Ed. and Certified Advanced Nurtured Heart Trainer
 
 
MY SERVICES As a practicing school counselor and teacher, and certified trainer in the Howard Glasser’s Nurtured Heart model, I work with parents, students and schools to coach each member to be in relationships which focus on building inner wealth and each person’s gifts, rather than energizing problems. Through modeling, direct instruction and interactive practical activities, I help bring children and adults into a new way of positive energy and interaction. (Note: Since becoming an Certified Advanced NHA Trainer in January of 2007, I have trained schools and presented nationally to hundreds of educators and families seeking to bring out the best version of their students and children daily. For a full list of references, please feel free to contact me directly at tammyfsmall@gmail.com) FAMILIES Coaching and counseling to empower and acknowledge inner wealth in all members, help correct destructive behaviors, nurture strong, positive relationships, replace patterns of negative attention with positive recognition, and reconnect family to their greatness. (Change can be immediately seen, but most families benefit from three sessions done every other week.) Rate – hourly $100 (first session is 1.5 hours); Required reading: selected chapters from Howard Glasser’s book Transforming the Difficult Child: The Nurtured Heart Approach. (c.2003) EDUCATORS Direct instruction to teachers, instructional aides, principals, coaches in adapting the Nurtured Heart Approach with their students, classes and teaching style. By modeling, active learning and various presentation tools, educators are quickly stepping into a new way of classroom management which honors the greatness of their students – and their own gifts as a critical impact in their student’s day. Two- day, All-day (6 hour) and half-day (3 hour) workshops available, with the greatest success found if additional follow-up coaching, individual classroom observations, and whole group hour presentations are utilized to fine-tune skills. Tammy has trained hundreds of educators across the state, nationally and through national speaking opportunities at professional organizations. References available upon request!

Whole group instruction will be significantly more successful if used in conjunction with There’s Always Something Going Right: Workbook for Implementing the Nurtured Heart Approach in School Settings (c. 2010 by Small and Triandis) as well as The Inner Wealth Initiative: The Nurtured Heart Approach for Educators (c.2007) Tom Grove and Howard Glasser.
