Testimonial

Lynne Jordan

Ian is amazing! He has been teaching addictions, trauma and mental health workshops in our Professional Development program for many years. He is an incredibly dynamic, skilled and compassionate instructor whose natural presence creates open, relaxed learning environments. He brings a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience to the classroom (whether the classroom is in-person, virtual or online) and values the shared knowledge that each participant brings to the training.

For our team, it is a pleasure working with Ian. He is responsive, well-prepared and always willing to share his expertise or assist with any training opportunities. We are so grateful that we are able to work with Ian. I would highly recommend Ian as a trainer.

Anna

The Trauma-Informed workshop was an outstanding experience. We were a group of twenty-four skilled practitioners from three different hospices, and Ian masterfully kept everyone fully engaged throughout the two days. His facilitation skills were remarkable, enabling rich conversations and inspiring thought-provoking questions from the participants.

The workshop covered a wide range of material that was new to many; it was informative and well-organized. Many commented that this workshop stood out as the best many of us have attended in a very long time, leaving participants with tools to implement, paving the way for positive change.
