Testimonials

My long term boyfriend and I came to FTI seeking guidance for our relationship. Every week, for a rate we could afford, we got to work with an exceptionally bright and compassionate woman whose sensitive listening and feedback helped us determine that it was time for us to part company. That we have been able to do so amicably and with great mutual respect is due in part to our therapist’s gentle guidance. I am grateful to live in a community that supports this incredible resource.

What a pleasure to attend Family Therapy Institute workshops, conferences, and seminars, where I am treated to local, national, and international speakers who inspire, challenge, and educate.

I have attended countless clinical programs sponsored by Family Therapy Institute and have always appreciated the excellence and professionalism, coupled with warmth and friendliness, creating a perfect learning environment.

Thank you for years of holistic educational opportunities that support me both professionally and personally in my life journey.

This is to thank you for the workshop on family therapy that you conducted for my marriage and family counseling students. They unanimously agreed that the workshop was a great learning experience!
-Donald Atkinson, Ph.D., UCSB Professor

I first wish to thank you on behalf of our staff for the excellent and thought-provoking training workshop which you gave last month. I believe that our conceptions of the possible were expanded by your presentation. Thank you.

I continue to be impressed by your successes with divorcing families which I have referred to you for treatment. These families problems, you know, are among the most entrenched and difficult to resolve through the mediation, investigation and judicial processes. You have been able to skillfully help these families move towards responsible ways of disengaging from disputes which threaten their children. I am grateful
to have you as a resource for our community.
-Robert Beilin, Ph.D., Family Relations Mediator

I would like to thank you again for your excellent presentation at our lunch. Many people told me they found you to be an outstanding speaker and that the information you shared
was both helpful and inspiring.
