This presentation was biased and discouraging. I can’t believe I was forced to listen to such negative comments around ways to treat mental illness. I felt like we went back 30 years to when the stigma of mental illness was shameful to discuss or want to treat. I would not recommend this course to anyone. I appreciated strategies and techniques to help children but not without having to listen to the author pitch and make her claim that pharma companies are all about making money and physicians are over diagnosing. It is a shame I had to listen to someone who doesn’t understand that some people truly need more than psychotherapy.
