Dear Larisa, I am so grateful that we got to train with you at Calm this year. I find myself speaking about MI (or through the lens of it) and how inspired I am to be a part of consultation with your insight. I found your training to be incredibly value adding and insightful. Thank you for your courage to speak and share so much, you're a gem and the field of psychology is far better off with your participation.

Thank you so much for the wonderful training. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was so happy to be a part of it. I’ve heard nothing but positive feedback from our staff! The content was excellent but I also really enjoyed the mix of role playing, slides and videos. It was really interactive and you are an excellent trainer.
