Start your review of Communicating with Presence

  • Communicating with Presence is a very short course. Even taking notes, I finished in under one hour. And for the more studious, there are a handful of papers to read.

    The content is to-the-point, well presented (animations and dot points) and aimed at being practical and applicable.

    As a clinician, it made me think about changing some of my practices, tweaking them to encourage a more meaningful, and healing connection with my clients.

    Based on Stanford's "Presence 5", this is a valuable contribution to improving the effectiveness of clinicians of any profession. At the same time giving their patients or clients a pleasant, satisfying consultation.
