Clayful is a mission-driven company focused on changing the face of mental health in schools. They provide a mental wellness solution that offers unlimited access to human coaches on demand, personalized support to 100% of students in every school, and content designed weekly in response to trends in data. Their goal is to reduce stigma, eliminate barriers to seeking help, intervene early, and change the culture surrounding mental health in schools.

Clayful

At Clayful, we believe every child has the power to shape their life. We’re on a mission to help kids build the skills and resilience to tackle anything that comes their way.  

We also believe human connection & trained guidance is key to this growth. That's why we created a mental wellness platform to support every student’s unique situation. With on-demand support from trained, caring humans, students are able to de-escalate big emotions, learn coping skills and strategies that equip them for future challenges, and make better, more responsible decisions. 

To support the student, we must also support the system. Thus, Clayful combines coaching with screeners, data and psychoeducation curriculum for schools & for families to help decrease behavioral concerns, increase student safety, and truly create a wellness culture  – in and out of the classroom. 

All of these things in isolation can be impactful- together, they’re transformational. 

Free for families, paid by schools💛

When we keep our feelings & worries in the dark, we can end up overwhelmed, stuck, and hurting. 🌀

Just talking to someone can bring those feelings & worries into the light. ✨

Talking about what’s going on inside of us can help us by:
1. Letting us know we aren’t alone
2. Allowing us to feel & process our feelings, so we move through them
3. Giving us a clearer understanding of ourselves & what we want
4. Opening up our minds to new solutions

We also all have the power to do this for others & coach each other. Use these phrases to ask for & give support. 💛

We all #procrastinate, resist tasks, and have trouble focusing sometimes. But choosing to #focus on a task rather than avoid it can help #students save time, do their best, & feel less stressed. 🤩

Here are powerful tips for overcoming avoidance & focusing on a task:
1. Decide to do the task - motivation comes after you start
2. Commit to an amount of time to focus that feels right for you
3. Limit distractions - find an uncluttered, quiet space & put away your phone
4. Find your purpose - reframe the task as something that will help you grow or help others
5. Bring your mind to the present - breathe
6. Break your task down into steps - small ones
7. Set your timer & begin focusing on the task
8. When time is up, take a break
9. Repeat as needed

Try these out the next time you need to focus. 🎯

Every time we feel #fear & #anxiety, we have the chance to teach our brains one of two things:
1. Yes, we should be afraid of this thing - avoid it at all costs
or
2. No, this thing isn’t so bad - we don’t have to worry about it

When #students avoid the thing they are afraid of, they increase their anxiety and the urge to avoid it next time. If the thing students are afraid of is something like academics, interacting with peers, or participating in a healthy hobby, then avoidance starts to severely limit students’ health & happiness.

The way out of the fear cycle is through challenge. 💪

Reframing fear as a challenge to grow or help others can motivate us to face our fears & decrease our long-term anxiety. 🌱

Try these strategies the next time you’re facing fear + anxiety to break out of the fear cycle. 🔄

When did you learn how to have difficult conversations? 💭

Having #difficultconversations is hard for adults, let alone for #teenagers. Many #students who come to chat with a Clayful Coach realize that they need to have a difficult conversation with a friend, a teacher, or a family member.

In these cases, we will role-play these difficult conversations with the student to help them prepare.
1. Ask them to describe the time + place they imagine this conversation taking place
2. Practice a “positive” conversation where they’re met with acceptance and a resolution
3. Practice a “negative” conversation where they are met with anger, disappointment, and things left unresolved

During role-playing, we invite students to use a tool to scaffold such conversations. It’s a four-part tool that helps students express their needs in a thoughtful and systematic way.

Here’s how the Ask for What You Want tool works:
 1. I notice you have been avoiding me at school lately.
 2. I feel sad when I don’t get to hang out with you
 3. because I need your friendship.
 4. Would you please let me know if something happened and how I can fix it?

Students will often come back to practice these conversations again and again, each time trying new things out in the role-play. Sometimes students have the conversation in real life and sometimes they don’t. Either way, the strategies, skills, and confidence they build along the way are useful.
