2008 Participants comment on The Basic Course on the DIR®/Floortime™Model

• "Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have made such a difference to my practice already. I have been a therapist for 25 years, and feel like I am just beginning again. You can teach an old dog new tricks. I look forward coming to the other side of the world next year, and studying with you further."


• "I loved that it was online-no need to travel or pay for a caregiver, hotel, etc. and it was so easy to fit into my schedule. Obviously I loved the content! I think the interactive forum was really great-made me feel connected to others & gave me a chance to make some connections with others in the field."


• "I'm a very experienced therapist and this brought a new facet to my skills. I have a much greater understanding and appreciation for affect based learning and the importance of this to maximize a child's benefit from therapy. It was great to come home each night and look forward to learning something new. As I told my friends, "I'm going home to spend the evening with Stanley..." :-)"


• "The delivery style of both Stanley Greenspan and Rosemary White made watching the sessions an absolute delight and privilege as well as each moment being an example of everything they were speaking about. The videos also added an authentic dimension to all that was being presented theoretically, as I was constantly seeing people truly practicing what they were preaching, so to speak!"


• "Being from a very rural area (Arcata, CA, 5 hours north of San Francisco) with a very tight budget it was tremendously helpful to provide an online course which also had an interactive component. Please continue to do more of these!!!!"


• "I loved that this course had participants from all over the world! I"


• "I felt the course to be very comprehensive and well set up. It really felt like i had attended a conference and was able to both network with people as well as have my questions answered. Thank you."


• "I liked that the course typically was broken into 35 to 1 hour segments so I could easily g own pace. I also liked the quiz that followed most sessions which enabled me to check my understanding of the materials."


• "Although I have attended this course in DC, I felt that it was very valuable to hear Dr. Greenspan talk about the model again. Each time I hear him speak it helps me look at the model in a new light."


• "I loved the video clips. Also, I found the lectures to be extremely well organized, and it was easy to follow along with the handouts. The information provided by the lecturers was meaningful, and presented clearly-so everyone can understand. Nothing was over my head. Very user friendly!"
