Speaking Engagements

We frequently present at schools, clinics, and conferences on evidence based care. Common topics include selective mutism, school refusal, and parenting and teaching youth with anxiety.

Clinical Consultations

Wonderful providers in the community often reach out to request consultation regarding selective mutism, school refusal, CBT and exposure-based therapies, and clinical program development.

School Refusal Training Institute (SRTI) – 8 CE credits Now Available

The School Refusal Training Institute (SRTI) is an 8-session training series for mental health and school providers of youth who refuse school. Attendees participate in 8 sessions held monthly throughout the school year. See flyer for the Fall 2022 session. Maryland Psychologist, social workers and professional counselors can all receive CE credits for their license renewal. Those from other states will have to check with their licensing board.
