Why Workshops?

Workshops may be an option for people who are looking for education and information about various topics. The sessions are designed to present a thorough amount information in a brief amount of time. Most workshops are a day or two long and are open to individuals and/or couples, whether they are currently involved in therapy or not. Workshops are not beneficial for all people. If you are experiencing a crisis, workshops would not be recommended. If a couple or individual needs more intensive interactions after a workshop, the speaker may suggest various follow-up therapy options.

Workshops are offered throughout the year and prices vary depending on the topic chosen.
