Excellent practical techniques that are easy to implement and explain. Was not expecting to become so much more aware of my own connection needs! Amazing workshop! The workshop reminded me that even though my children are grown and live in other places, I should keep in touch by calling them often. I felt comfortable sharing my experiences with the participants. The connection and interaction with the other participants were very easy. It was great to meet and discuss with other Clinicians and dialogue. It was great to get to collaborate with peers. I really enjoyed the discussion between all the clinicians. It was as though we were in the same room with each other. I loved that part. Great to get to know others who are willing to be vulnerable and share. Great group! Grateful for the small group and the personal sharing of participants.
