It Takes a Village

Therapists need input and guidance from seasoned colleagues who can provide feedback on clinical challenges, technical questions and ethical concerns.

While the confidentiality of my clients is always protected, it is important to seek such feedback.

I am receiving consultation on an ongoing basis from a senior members and instructors of EMDRIA, NESCH/ASCH and ISSTD. I am also part of several online peer consultation groups and listserves.
