Workshop Testimonials
I think my experience did not disappoint. I have heard a lot about Ackerman from other counseling professionals and all of it made me very excited to experience it myself. To see how rigorous the process is in training with the Ackerman Institute was inspiring.
I left the workshop feeling motivated and with questions to foster relationships within the family without being judgmental and blaming and shaming. I feel hopeful and guided to leave an imprint rather than fix a problem/crisis.
Informative and beautifully spoken about systematic approach. Would like to come back to take more family therapy lectures or workshops when its being led by Micheal next time!
