I have learned that in addressing mental health and traumatic situations that every student is different in how they respond and how a student responds may be different tomorrow. It is important to understand what triggers that student in helping them develop preventative measures and coping strategies.

In repairing anything mechanical there is this thought, Cause and effect. To affirm a proper repair, one needs to understand proper operation, determine what is not operating properly. which is effect.  Then decide what is causing the symptoms.  By determining these things an effective repair can be done.
