"I enjoyed the opportunity to have an open conversation about the reality of being a new grad. You asked some difficult questions but also gave me some tips and reassurance about things I wouldn’t necessarily feel comfortable talking about with a colleague"

Your program has been great, giving me lots of insights into ways to rethink how I am working. Many of your ideas are going to impact my work positively.
Michele, thanks for sharing your experience and your many insights. You’ve been there. You get what problems can arise as we try to do our work to the best of our ability, and you have valuable insights for how to work with our professional paperwork differently so we are not just more efficient but better therapists.
