Professional from Houston, TX

I particularly enjoyed the excellent clinical films and found them especially useful in understanding the assessments and interventions that were taught. Appreciated seeing actual examples of sessions and examples of different ideas/thoughts of what to say and how to implement interventions.

It was really a wonderful experience. The presentation took the research information from Level 1 into a clinical application that I can really use in my practice.
