Meet Your Trainers

See what previous members have to say about our program

“The Flourishing Project was such a rewarding aspect of my internship. Not only did it allow time for me to connect with peers and supervisors, but it also provided a wealth of information on a wide variety of topics. These training sessions covered areas we weren’t able to get to in my program in more depth like DBT, LGBTQIA+, Kink, Poly, ACT, and much more! It was also a warm environment to ask questions and know that answers would always be provided in a compassionate and non-judgmental manner. Like many things, what you put in is what you will get out, so I highly recommend participating in these opportunities to the fullest extent!"
