Testimonials

Prerna Rajesh Rane

It was indeed a great learning experience, got various insights about newer concepts. As I'm a student of applied psychology I was not well versed with many topics but ma'am did make sure to simplify it. I really enjoyed the expressive art therapy sessions, the role play it was an amazing experience for me.

Sashmita

It gave good overview of the child psychology. The concepts were covered nicely and it tapped on alot of relevant topics. Learning more about narrative therapy, expressive arts therapy helped me to think like a child to understand the child.The best part was the questions part, where the trainers asked questions in between the sessions and the body language classes were the most exciting ones. They were all very sweet and patient with us. They explained everything perfectly.

Suryanshi
