Offering licensed clinicians an opportunity to gain hands-on training and certification in neuroaffirmative assessment without having to return to graduate school.
Have you wondered........
What you can do to help the backlog and waiting lists for evaluations?
How you might add to or change your practice so that you can serve an additional need?
How you might be able to increase your earnings this year, while quite possibly offering fewer face to face hours?
If it would be beneficial to return to graduate school to obtain an additional degree or certification, but aren't sure about adding that to your already full plate, “and budget”?
What if you could attend a hands-on, high quality, intensive certification program that combines asynchronous courses together with live group coaching each week, that could be completed in three months?

***Must hold a graduate degree and be a licensed mental health or medical professional to include professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, social workers, nurse practitioners, neurologists, physicians assistants, and psychologists..
***Must be willing and able to commit 8-10 hours a week over the course of the program. Coursework, readings, and virtual group coaching are all offered online, so location changes or travel should not interfere so long as you ensure sufficient access to the internet.
***There will be additional charges to acquiring assessment materials after graduation.
***Accreditation. Because of the number of clinician types we enroll and the diversity of state laws governing CEUs, it is impossible for us to offer CEUs to meet everyone's needs. We will attempt to expand our accreditation for CEUs in the future. However, right now, we are focusing our efforts on the rigorous APA application process.

With a rich background in social services and mental health, I transitioned from roles like probation officer and foster care case manager to becoming a school psychologist, driven by the challenges I faced as a parent of a child with learning differences. I saw and experienced for myself as a neurodivergent person, and for my daughter, how all of these systems did not connect, held different requirements for entry, and essentially families were lost in the middle.
Fast forward, I returned to graduate school yet again, seeking the opportunity to gain further training and development so that I could work for myself. Working for myself has offered me not only the financial freedom I never believed was possible, but the opportunity to design a life that keeps me stimulated and able to pursue all of the learning, curiosities, and travel my heart desires.
My goal for you is to help breakdown barriers to your continued education and practice building. By doing so, we can help increase access to these much needed services.
