Branding of your practice and regard as an informed, relevant, and effective professional among your peers

Have you ever wanted to integrate new modalities of treatment such as trauma, neuroscience, or mindfulness, into your practice, but felt unable to do so because there was no available means to get the training?

Have you wished that someone would objectively screen and qualify conferences and workshops before you spent your time and money on ones that were boring, unhelpful, didn’t help you develop your practice, or lead to any further certification or credentialing?

Have you grown weary of having to explain to patients and others how you are different from other mental health professionals?

THE SOLUTION IS HERE. JOIN NOW!

We understand the dilemma we all face in maintaining relevance, integrating the latest research, expanding our knowledge base, and developing our skills.
