You’re here because you care deeply about helping students thrive — and you’re looking for ways to make your school a place where safety, connection, and learning all work together.
I get it.
Every day, educators face wave after wave of new programs, initiatives, and “must-do” plans. Each one promises to help — but instead, it often feels like another thing added to your already full plate.
I’ve been there.
As a former teacher, I remember the exhaustion that comes with trying to balance behavior systems, academic targets, and the emotional needs of every student. As a state project director and consultant, I’ve seen the challenges schools face when trying to connect all the dots between trauma-informed practices, PBIS, restorative approaches, and MTSS.
That’s why I created Katona Linn Consulting — to help educators move from feeling overwhelmed by initiatives to feeling empowered by alignment.
My work centers on helping school teams Build Resilient Classrooms where students feel safe, connected, and ready to learn — and where educators feel supported, confident, and purposeful.
