Read MoreI could tell the amount of time and energy put into this course. It was very well done! good mix of instruction, video, and practice. Chris knows his stuff and leads the class well. I prefered the two part format. Since I work in private practice, I could stack my clients on the other half of the week which was helpful. I would recommend this course to others!
