Course Reviews

"Excellent topic and so refreshing to see trainings that take us beyond 'surface level' therapy, as well as therapy conducted outside of meaningful context."

"This course had literally everything you need to know on this topic. It gave me a plethora of ways to individualize for each student while still being able to work in a small group with different knowledge levels that could be provided different levels of prompting or scaffolding."
