Review for The Coming Home Project, San Francisco, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have attended a training session for the Coming Home Project. I was instructed in methodologies to treat veterann's as an MFT, and particiapated in the multi-modal method that the Coming Home project has created. In my professional opinion, these techniques have the potential to positively impact innumerable vets and their families. I have been asked to be a co facilitator in the San Diego in June, and am thrilled to be able to participate in this ground-breaking retreat. Lisa Gavin Cruse, MFT
