Description
The number of students missing instruction due to conduct issues and low teacher retention are interfluent with mental health effects of family issues on teachers and students. The structural integrity needed for public school systems to thrive is suffering. Students and teachers typically lack biological connection, yet are within each other’s ecosystems and sometimes connected by mental health issues like anxiety and depression. To address these issues, this research aims to prove that applying DBT will make way for the use of CBT and Narrative Therapy among K-12 teachers to reduce the number of classroom removals and teacher resignations.
