What Makes Us Different

Specialty clients need a specialty approach.  There is no way to effectively work with the gifted/talented/exceptional population without proper education and training.  Keep in mind, those who are driven to work with this population might be required to work on their own gifted identity.

Limitations

This type of training is limited to people who are in the counseling, social work, educational, and psychotherapy professions. If you are a professional that works with this population, whether in the schools or in the therapy office, you are welcome to join.
