Case Consultation Group Forming!

 

To address the case consultation needs of our international membership, the iaedp Communications Committee introduces an ongoing twice-monthly consultation group in an interactive webinar format.

      All iaedp members are invited to participate. 

      Seasoned clinicians address complex cases, mentor early career therapists, and learn cutting edge techniques. 

      Licensed clinicians may request feedback on cases, listen, and provide feedback.
