Title: Re: Valerie porr seminr Post by: jellibeans on April 03, 2014, 03:40:29 PM I just wanted to reply to this so it could get bumped up to the top as well. I posted a while back about a speaking engagement in Toronto canada but no one has responded to my post after going. I would be very interested hear from people who have gone. Her book is so helpful and I really go back to it over and over agin to reread... .

Title: Re: Valerie porr seminr Post by: Runmama on April 04, 2014, 10:08:17 PM I have taken the weekend family survival skills and it was well worth it. I learned so much about the neurobiology of BPD and was very lucky to be with a group of very compassionate people. Valerie is open, honest and a true advocate.
Like jellibeans, I've read her book more then once on my reader then i ordered a hard copy so i could highlight and tag. It's been my go to book. I know she also does some webinar classes as well. She also does a weekly class with those suffering from BPD. All info can be found on the website tara4BPD.org. All the best! Title: Re: Valerie porr seminr Post by: six on April 12, 2014, 10:03:48 PM i took the course with my DH two yrs ago. it was life-changing for me bec I really did not know much about BPD before that. I brought my adult daughters to some of the classes and they gained a lot too. when I started the class I had been thru years of turmoil with my ds26 and I was angry at him, but I learned from Valerie to look at him with compassion instead of anger. It took me a long time to put her tools into
practice but my attitude toward the situation changed immediately... I also think that it helped me and dh become a team bec we both had access to the same information finally. |
