Review for Institute for Personal Change, Palo Alto, CA, USA
I first became involved with the Institute as a client in 1989 and even now check in with my therapist from time to time as needed. As a client, volunteer, and now Board Member with this organization, I can say unequivocally that going through The Process has been one of the most important and life-enhancing steps I have ever taken.
The work I did and continue to do has allowed me to clean up a lot of old business from a difficult childhood and address lingering issues that were interfering with work, family, and relationships. I have recommended it to friends, colleagues, and siblings and will continue to do so without reservation.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
All aspects of my life and career. Simply put, my life before I became a client wasn't all that livable. I came out of the Process with tons of insight into my past and plenty of tools for coping with life's challenges.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
. . . become a marketing genius (which I am not!) to help get the word out about the inestimable value of the Institute's work. We board members are always trying to figure out new ways to communicate our message to potential clients.
