Compliment from Orange Blossom Family Health
Orange Blossom Family Health had the pleasure of working with Jill Levenson, PhD, LCSW, and Barry University to train our entire staff on Trauma-Informed Care. We were looking for a program that not only trained the staff but would provide support for our management team. This training met all of the requirements that we were looking for and then some. Dr. Levenson made the process very easy and provided guidance along the way as we booked her for the training. Once the first training day arrived, we felt well-prepared. Dr. Levenson was extremely knowledgeable and well organized. This training also offered the management team a chance to gain insight on how best to work with staff that have experienced trauma. We were very impressed and would love to have Dr. Levenson return in the future to provide additional trainings!
