The complete training was really helpful for me in understanding the perspective of the parents while working with children and adolescents. It opened a whole new element and created a broader perspective for me as to why it's important in teaming up with the parents and work along with them.

This short course was better tha what i expected honestly. I work with adolescents and the challenging part isn’t always therapy work, but to explain the work to the parents. At times, as a therapist, you can see that the external environment of the client is hindering the progress, but you feel helpless in that aspect. I got equipped with the understanding of the parent’s world and how to actually work as a team with Indian parents. What Dr shilpa told really stuck by me- the child is going to be with the parents for rest of the 23 hours after 1 hour session with us. If there isn’t a shift their, our work will also get impacted.

The training was very insightful for me and it was very empowering. Because i got to know a lot of issues that were underlying or under the surface for me to be cognitively aware. I learnt skills that i can apply in therapy sessions and also to resolve the issues that i have been facing.

First internship and i would never want to do it any other way. the most amazing experience of my life in this field yet and the people i met from the mentors to my batchmates, i just love everyone so much. the first day at emoaid was nerve wracking
but the mentors broke the ice so easily and gave us a safe space since the very first day.
Every session, every question, every answer, everything taught me something and left me
with so much more to think about. i can't thank the entire Emoaid team enough for making this experience an unforgettable one for me.
