My brain needs your help.

I am looking forward to ch-ch-changes this year! After much longing and a little practice, I have decided to start a few groups. Some will be on-going and others will be one day workshops. My head is spinning with ideas and I need your help funneling them down into manageable and desirable goals.

Along with groups, I need feedback to help make your experiences better while working with me. Each response is 100% anonymous (seriously, you can say ANYTHING you want). Click onto this (safe) survey link. Just 10 simple questions that will collectively take less than 3 minutes. I thank you a million in advance!
