Thankfully for Jax, TCDC has access to behavior specialists who intervened and worked with him to identify and understand his emotions. Major progress was made to help Jax accept and manage these emotions. He can now identify when he feels overwhelmed and will take himself to a quiet spot to process his feelings. His communication skills have also greatly improved – he now uses words over aggression when provoked by peers, and regularly communicates with his teacher how he is feeling. Jax now requires little redirection and is ready for kindergarten.
