What Matters
Abstract
In this essay, I outline the development of my professional and personal commitments to research and teaching that focus on the alleviation of children’s suffering in schools. I describe how undertaking a late-career practice as a psychotherapist has shaped my reimagining of classrooms as sites of vital possibility for children and their teachers.
