Every year, I have the pleasure of working with literally hundreds of clinicians, professional groups, private companies, and public agencies. I'm proud to say that over the last 15 years, I've conducted workshops in every state, and most of the territories, of the United States. Additionally, each and every one of those years, I've spent time abroad working with behavioral health professionals and managers of treatment programs in Europe, Australia, and Asia. My long experience "on the road" gives me a unique and privileged view regarding the needs and challenges facing the field. I put that experience to work every week.

The cutting-edge trainings I offer are based on the latest empirical evidence and will help you, your staff or agency, improve both outcome and efficiency. In fact, research published to date, documents a 65% increase in effectiveness while cutting drop out rates in half. Click here to request a copy of my workshop packet. It contains detailed information including workshop descriptions, learning objectives, training and consultation packages, and fee structure.

By the way, whoever said that training has to be boring? Ask around, or contact me for a reference, between the laughter and learning, you, your staff, or conference attendees will wonder where the time went. I look forward to speaking at your training event.
