Reviews of Dr. Jennifer Sweeton (Psychologist)

TimandMichelle Marriageguyandgal

I have been wanting to take an EMDR course for quite some time to use with my counseling clients who have experienced trauma and abuse. I could not have chosen a better introduction. Jennifer Sweeton went into depth on the neuroscience as well as the protocols, covered the nuances, and gave insightful and attuned feedback. Practice opportunities were well conducted. Her passion, compassion, knowledge, and relatability made what could potentially be a heavy topic into something manageable and exciting to learn. I definitely feel prepared to begin using EMDR with my clients in the near future.

Danielle Huebner

I attended Jennifer's 1 day 'building a resilient brain' workshop in Melbourne. The workshop was engaging and informative . Jennifer has a fantastic presentation style and makes complex concepts practical and easy to understand. I highly recommend this course and I will definitely attend her future workshops.

Michaela Wilber

Kelly Smith

I learned so much in my EMDR seminar! Dr. Sweeton is very knowledgeable and profession. I will definitely take more seminars with her.

Maria Vastianos

I recently attended Dr Jennifer Sweeton's workshop on "Building a Resilient Brain" in Melbourne. The workshop was extremely informative and presented in a professional and engaging manner. Dr Sweeton clearly has an in depth knowledge of the functions of the brain and shared this information with her audience. I have walked away with a number of new strategies and information that I can use in my therapeutic work. One of the best workshop I have attended in a while. Highly recommended workshop. Thank you Dr. Sweeton.

I attended Dr. Sweeton's Neuroscience for Clinicians seminar a few weeks ago. It was very informative and insightful for me as I serve as a mental health diagnostician. I have attended many CE seminars over the past 4 years, but it is unprecedented that Dr. Sweeton gave all the attendees online access to the materials presented during the seminar and other practical tools that can be used in my practice. I am excited to review them all for me to become a better helper. I would like to be notified of CE events or other certification courses Dr. Sweeton presents in my area in the future.

Janett Barksdale

This 2 day EMDR course is the best one that I have taken. Dr. Sweeton has a wonderful way of explaining the concepts so that you get it- get it. She doesn't rush it. She gives you all of the materials that you need to increase your competence. I'm telling you... if you want to get a handle on EMDR... this is the one to take!

Mark Rogers

Just took the 2-day EDMR workshop. Can't say how much it has helped me to better understand the applications of EDMR. Thanks Dr. Sweeton.

Wayne Parisien

Dr. Sweeton was an excellent presenter and had a lot of knowledge about neuroscience and it was nice learning from her.

Sarah Blake

I had the pleasure of viewing a 2-day neuroscience training, which was fantastic. Dr. Sweeton is down to earth and is an excellent speaker. She made the material easy to understand and provided information that will definitely help my practice going forward.

Lloyd Hannemann

The one-day seminar, Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician, was full of valuable information and useful tools. The presentation would've been better served had it been two days.

Print Woman

Psycho-therapy is filled with quack-practitioners, so it was incredibly uplifting to be taught EMDR by a true scientist, one who is able to elucidate the subject matter by explaining the scientific rationale behind each element of the therapeutic process. After all, the best way to learn a new topic is to understand it! Dr. Sweeton is a fast-paced and articulate lecturer, and I feel my investment was money very well spent. She has my highest recommendation.

LauraMaery Gold

I'm a researcher and author on Dr. Sweeton's subject matter. She provided well-documented data that will take my research (and my clinical counseling work) in new directions. Well worth the time and money.

Molly Magahy

Dr Jennifer Sweeton's 2 day EMDR training is amazing. Dr Sweeton's inclusion of the neuroscience behind trauma and EMDR was a great addition to the general EMDR training. I would highly recommend Dr Sweeton as a trainer and will definitely be attending more of her training's in the future.

Hilary Houldsworth

Dr. Sweeton was very informative and knowledgable at the Neuroscience for Clinicians Seminar I attended. I would love to attend another one of her seminars if I have the chance.

jen yerty doorn

Great training from PESI and Dr. Sweeton on trauma. Her info on neuroscience was easy to comprehend and very helpful in treatment of trauma. Less about EMDR and more about other therapies would have been helpful.

Kathy Musslewhite

Dr. Sweeton was wonderful. Very informative. I do trauma work and found her practical, intervention suggestions very helpful.

Jennifer Henderson

Attended Brain-Based Therapy conference in Buffalo, NY, and left with so much useful information! Jennifer kept my attention every minute of the workshop. She was enthusiastic, very knowledgeable, and skilled at explaining in ways that were easy to understand. So glad I chose this conference, and highly recommend it.

Kelsey Russchelle

I have been a patient of Dr. Sweeton since 2016. She is hands down, THE BEST psychologist I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Starting at about five years old, I started seeing countless therapists all the way into adulthood for multiple traumas and ongoing disorders. I never really connected much with any of them, nor did I feel like they actually helped me. Dr. Sweeton has been the only one that I have connected with, felt completely comfortable with, and has helped me make progress in my mental health journey. She is very kind, down-to-earth, patient, understanding, and helps educate you about your mental health as well. I'm always so intrigued to learn from her. Dr. Sweeton gave me faith in the power of mental health professionals again. I am so grateful to have her as my psychologist and I only wish that I found her sooner. She has been such a blessing to my life! I very highly recommend her if you're looking for an amazing psychologist!

Debra Wrazin

I recently attended Dr. Sweeton's training in Buffalo and it was excellent. It was the best training I have ever attended, extremely helpful to my practice, and her knowledge is exceptional. I highly recommend that if you have an opportunity to attend one of her trainings it would be invaluable especially for social workers/counselors dealing with clients that have a trauma history however the information can be applied with all clients.

Dylsaw Mom

Dr. Sweeton's Neuroscience for Clinicians was one of the rate presentations that not only provide foundation knowledge but practical tools and strategies that we could incorporate in our programming immediately. I highly recommend this training.

Cheryl Mead

Easy to understand presentation with immediately applicable tools and interventions! Highly recommended!

Deborah Perry

I attended the seminar and was impressed by the relevant knowledge I received and will be able to use in my practice. Thank you Dr. Sweeton.

Rita Vasquez

Had the opportunity to do a live cast of the 2 day intensive trauma treatment workshop. It was very intense, informative and was very well presented by Dr. Sweeton. Provided valuable tools to use with families moving through the journey of loss. Look forward to attending in person another one of her workshops.

AnnaJackie ZonenSoboti

Thank you so much much for an incredibly informative seminar on Neuroscience. I already started applying some of the techniques with my clients and can’t wait to share more. You’ve sparked my curiosity and interest in this subject matter and I can’t wait to further my knowledge on it!

Carri Nash

Jennifer is knowledgeable, from the brain neurobiology to the practical application of EMDR. Her 3 day course was hands down one of the best CEU courses I've ever attended. Her teaching style is down to earth and approachable.

Amber McGowan

Neuroscience for Clinicians was an outstanding seminar that tied clinical research to practical application. Dr. Sweeton's explanations of 'the way things work' with the human brain and the impact on socio-emotional, physical, and spiritual health provided not only a clinical basis for treatment, but also a layman's approach to share basics with clients. I left the one-day seminar craving more information; I will definitely attend this seminar again when it becomes a two-day seminar with more focus on treatment strategies!

Phylicia Baker

I attended Dr. Sweeton's Neuroscience for the Modern Clinician training and was very pleased! She tied together research, training and real-life experience in order to show the powers of neuroscience in action. The focus on mindfulness tools was also very helpful given my department's strategic plan over the past few years has been to increase the understanding and use of mindfulness throughout our setting.

Heather Hunt

I took Dr. Sweeten's EMDR class. She is a highly knowledgeable professional and extremely engaging. Not only does she present in a way that is easily understood but she makes it exciting and practical to apply. I look forward to taking a class from her again.

Wendy Carrington

I recently attended "Neuroscience Informed Therapy" with Dr. Jennifer Sweeton. Dr. Sweeton was an excellent speaker. Her in depth knowledge of the brain was exceptional and her ability to relate it to human behavior was fascinating. Understanding the function of the brain is critical to helping clients be able to create real change in their lives. I highly recommend this course.

Mike Koch

I very much appreciated Dr. Sweeton's excellent presentation, Neuroscience for Clinicians. Her knowledge of and expertise on the subject matter was exceptional and understandable. I am coming away from the training with so more relevant and applicable information and techniques for working with my entire caseload. It has especially given me hope and confidence for addressing some of my most difficult cases. I would highly recommend this training to anyone providing therapeutic services to any clientele.

abbott jordan

Attended Jennifer Sweeton's webinar, "Neuroscience for Clinicians, Brain Change for Stress, Anxiety, Trauma, Moods and Substance Abuse. Although this was an all day webinar I found the presentation to be quite informative, providing me with much knowledge about brain function,, symptoms and treatment measures that I did not previously possess. She also provided information that validated measures I was already utilizing. An all day webinar has the potential to being taxing but I found that Dr. Sweeton's manner of presentation and focus on connecting brain functions to clinical relevance held my interest and attention throughout. This webinar certainly met and exceeded my expectations and left me with new ideas to use in treatment.

Melissa Scarfone

I attended Dr. Sweeton's seminar, Neuroscience for Clinicians: Brain Change for Stress, Anxiety, Trauma, Moods and Substance Abuse. She was fabulous. I have attended neuroscience-type seminars in the past and gained a spotty understanding of the material but Dr. Sweeton presented the information with such clarity, I felt I had an immediate understanding of brain structures and the role they play in many psychological disorders. It undergirds the theory and practice of counseling and therapy. I feel I have many more tools in my toolbox for the work I do with college students with disabilities. I HIGHLY recommend attending her presentations; I hope to have the opportunity to do so again. Melissa Scarfone

Erin Seitz

Dr. Sweeton is phenomenal! She is extremely intelligent, but able to tailor the content of her presentations to her audience. I have no doubt that she can speak as comfortably to a group of experts as she can to a client. I learned so much from her and am using the knowledge in my work with students.

Fernando Perfas

Dr. Sweeton's one day seminar on neuroscience for clinicians was packed with current and useful research-based information. Her presentation highlighted the importance of clinical practice grounded on research. I recommend her seminar to any serious practitioner.

D Stamm

Excellent refresher course on Neuroscience for clinicians. Jennifer provided a ton of resources and studies to augment our learning experience. Additionally, she generously included valuable and practical interventions that will help my clients with their multiple anxieties and trauma. Very satisfied.

Greg Volk

At a recent workshop given by Dr. Sweeton regarding neuroscience and therapy, I was impressed with the depth and breadth of her knowledge as well as her ability to present the information in a professional and relatable manner. Excellent presentation!

Shannon Higgins

Dr. Sweeton offered a 2-Day, in-depth training on EMDR. This course was very well done. Dr. Sweeton took us through every step of the process and explained everything as we went. It offered the right balance between theory and practice. I didn't have any previous training before now. This course makes me much less reluctant to employ this technique in my practice. Get this course!

Mark Fastner

Dr. Sweeton's style of presentation is personable. She takes a complicated subject such as neuroplasticity and breaks it into easy to understand concepts and then into useful techniques in order to help patients heal.

Jennifer Sweeton's EMDR training was outstanding! She is very knowledgeable and very natural and she makes it fun and engaging! I have been a therapist for almost 20 years and how she presented EMDR and incorporated science with therapy makes me excited for my clients. As a therapist ,Ifeel and think that this is exactly what I've been waiting for and Jennifer Sweeton's enthusiasm and knowledge made this possible! I recommend going to Jennifer Sweeton's EMDR training at least once in your professional life.

Jennifer provided an in depth view in the physical effects of crisis and trauma on the brain as to enable the student and practitioner to better understand the underlying effects and benefits of interventions such as EMDR. Her method of presentation and her expertise in the field allowed students and practitioners of all backgrounds and competencies to very effectively obtain a solid understanding of the emotional and somatic effects of short-term, long-term, large scale, personal and social trauma in regards to physiological response and effective intervention. I look forward to attending many of Dr Sweeton's seminars in the future as this seminar has had a profound impact on my studies and evential area of practice.

I just attended the Neuroscience for Clinicians Workshop recently and was very impressed and excited about the information that Dr. Sweeton provided.

I love Jennifer Sweeton. I went to her workshop on Neuroscience for Clinicians and it was by far the most informative workshop I have ever attended!!

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop on 05/08/2019. It was without doubt the best I have been to in a long time. Jennifer's knowledge and presentation style are excellent.

Lula Lovin' Galyean

I recently attended a seminar entitled: Neuroscience for Clinicians, taught by Dr. Jennifer Sweeton. Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter, extremely knowledgeable and engaging. She was able to present an enormous amount of information on brain anatomy, pathways, and networks in relation to behavior. Clinical interventions were presented highlighting the neural pathways engaged. Dr. Sweeton evidences at deep knowledge of affective neuroscience and clinical therapy and is both informative and engaging as a presenter. Highly recommended.

Justin Sonny Brown

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop in Perth Australia. I have been working in the addictions field for many years but the information around Neuroscience can be a little difficult to understand and even more so apply with clients. Jens workshop I found to be outstanding, i learned more from her 1 day workshop than I have from lots of books I have read. Her style is engaging and her expertise impressive. For sure a five star rating. Ka mau te wehi-Justin

Learning EMDR from the best... I took the 2 day EMDR training. I have been to other trainings out there and this was the best! Dr. Sweeton knows what she is doing and she know what she is talking about. I will be looking for all of the other things that she is doing.

Dr. Sweeton is super knowledgable and the 2 day EMDR webinar is a great overview to present EMDR! It hits on all of the aspects of EMDR general rules while also showing the flexibility of the therapy. Dr. Sweeton answers all questions and makes sure you have what you need to get started with this therapy. She understands the body and it is so interested for her to presents exactly why this therapy works for a person. I will definitely be looking up more trainings by Dr. Sweeton.

I attended Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician by Dr. Sweeton and it was easily the best CEU seminar I've ever attended. Dr. Sweeton's approach was easy to follow, dynamic and her expertise really shined through. I appreciated learning a new approach to neuroscience topics I've been studying for years. I walked away with so much more knowledge and a better mind-body understanding of stress responses and interventions. I appreciated the layout of the seminar and how much information Dr. Sweeton was sharing in a one day training. I hope to take more courses from Dr. Sweeton in the future!

I recently attended an all day seminar titled: Neuroscience for Clinicians, taught by Dr. Sweeton. Seminars do not usually capture my full attention for the entire day but I found this one to be a bit different.

I would be very interested in attending other seminars given by Dr. Sweeton.

Jonathan Hopps

The teaching and learning was incredible. The materials were thorough and great references to access after the 2-day training. I felt confident and competent to embark on using EMDR with my clients walking out the door after day two. Jennifer's website has even more resources to access to additional tools.

Erica Wright

I just attended Jennifer's excellent seminar on neurobiology and trauma. She is an amazing presenter and easily explains complex systems dealing with psychotherapy, trauma and recovery. I highly recommend her work to any clinician working in mental health.

Kelly Woodward

I had the opportunity to attend a PESI training that Jennifer Sweeton, Psy.D., M.S., MA, lead. It was called Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician. I've been to many trainings and this was definitely in the top two. The information she gave was tailored to mental health therapists and the information and tools were applicable and were things we could apply right away with our clients within the scope of our practice. It also made me excited to do further research on the mind-body connection and the brain. I highly recommend working with Jennifer if possible or attending a training in the future.

Jenny Lloyd

Jennifer's workshop on Building a Resilient Brain was very informative. She is an engaging and responsive teacher. It was very helpful to learn the neuroscience behind the techniques to improve mental health.

Roberta Pool

I attended Dr. Sweeton's neuroscience conference last week. I really enjoyed her presentation style. She took time to answer questions, discussed practical applications and provided many different resources that I felt confident taking back to my clients. Neuroscience is not my wheel house, but I was able to understand and follow along Dr. Sweeton's presentation very well. I would highly recommend attending any presentation done by Dr. Sweeton, and hope to attend another seminar myself.

Nancy Cross

Excellent presenter with both academic and experiencial knowledge of the topic. Dr. Sweeton presents her in-depth knowledge in a professional, yet friendly manner that keeps the viewers' interest. By giving participants the opportunity for hands-on learning, she incorporates additional avenues of learning. kAdditionally, she is receptive to questions, yet is cognizant of relevance and timing. Well done! I will seek her out in the future for other workshops.

Karen Dudgeon

Attended the PESI Neuroscience for Clinicians training in Syracuse NY. Presentation was all I hoped it would be.

Nan Fitzgerald

I attended "Neuroscience for Clinicians" in Timonium, Maryland on Friday, March 1, 2019. This was an OUTSTANDING presentation and I would highly recommend it for anyone working with people and/or groups therapeutically, nurses, and others who would benefit for this information. As a Licensed Clinical Therapist, LCSW-C, the information was "on-time" and pertinent to my scope of practice. While clinical in nature, the course was also taught in an easy to understand framework and questions were welcomed throughout the seminar. Great course!

manon wathier

I attended " Building a resilient brain" in Brisbane on 2nd August 2019. Jennifer is truly an inspiration! I learned a lot on the day and came out wanting to run a resilience group at work ( mental health rehab setting). She really knows her stuff and no question was left unanswered. Without any hesitation I recommend this workshop to any mental health professional. I'm an OT and it was definitely worth it!

Brittany Morgan

Dr. Sweeton has the unique ability to explain the brain in a way that anyone can understand. I use this vital information to help all my clients. Its been my experience that people appreciate a better understanding of what is happening within them. As a result of Dr. Sweeton's presentation, now my clients are saying, "oh-- that makes sense! Its nice to know I'm not crazy."

Mary Johnson

Hello. I took the 2 day EMDR with Dr. Jennifer Sweeton. Before I took the course, I was very skeptical. I mean, you see a lot of materials out there about it. I finally decided to take it and I'm so glad I did. Dr. Sweeton is a great speaker and teacher. For someone like me (I admit- I'm a bit shy), I was able to receive the instruction along with all of these people- and I didnt feel like I was going to mess it up. Plus, I felt that if I did mess it up, then Dr. Sweeton would be right there to help. What an experience... one of the best trainings I have ever been to.

Sierra Guy

Jennifer provided an in depth view in the physical effects of crisis and trauma on the brain as to enable the student and practitioner to better understand the underlying effects and benefits of interventions such as EMDR. Her method of presentation and her expertise in the field allowed students and practitioners of all backgrounds and competencies to very effectively obtain a solid understanding of the emotional and somatic effects of short-term, long-term, large scale, personal and social trauma in regards to physiological response and effective intervention. I look forward to attending many of Dr Sweeton's seminars in the future as this seminar has had a profound impact on my studies and evential area of practice.

Barb Dotson

I just attended the Neuroscience for Clinicians Workshop recently and was very impressed and excited about the information that Dr. Sweeton provided. She is an excellent presenter and explained the brain, it's functions and how it affects the body in such a way that i've been able to retain the information and use it with my clients. She also presented some great tools, references to more resources and graciously answered many questions for us. I will seek out her workshops in the future.

Andrea DiBenedetto

I love Jennifer Sweeton. I went to her workshop on Neuroscience for Clinicians and it was by far the most informative workshop I have ever attended!! The information was relevant to my practice and it made me want more. I will attend any or all workshops presented by her in the future. I would even repeat this workshop as I feel there was sooo much information that was important to know. Thank you!!!

Denise Thomas

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop on 05/08/2019. It was without doubt the best I have been to in a long time. Jennifer's knowledge and presentation style are excellent. The content was very informative and linked into intervention strategies that I can use in my daily practice, brilliantly.

Mike Elphick

I was thoroughly enthralled with Dr. Sweeton's presentation regarding the brain and trauma. It was a wealth of valuable and practical information. It helped to shed light on people's behaviors and how to effect change for them.

I would definitely go hear her again if the opportunity arises.

diana lark

I recently attended a seminar entitled: Neuroscience for Clinicians, taught by Dr. Jennifer Sweeton. Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter, extremely knowledgeable and engaging. She was able to present an enormous amount of information on brain anatomy, pathways, and networks in relation to behavior. Clinical interventions were presented highlighting the neural pathways engaged. Dr. Sweeton evidences at deep knowledge of affective neuroscience and clinical therapy and is both informative and engaging as a presenter. Highly recommended.

Justin Sonny Brown

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop in Perth Australia. I have been working in the addictions field for many years but the information around Neuroscience can be a little difficult to understand and even more so apply with clients. Jens workshop I found to be outstanding, i learned more from her 1 day workshop than I have from lots of books I have read. Her style is engaging and her expertise impressive. For sure a five star rating. Ka mau te wehi-Justin

Blair Somerville

I attended Dr. Sweeton's 3 day EMDR training through PESI, and I really learned a lot from it. She explained everything very clearly, and incorporated plenty of time for questions. The pacing of the seminar was really well done, and never felt rushed or overly drawn out.

Melissa Featherstone

Jennifer is extremely knowledgeable and delivers her information with clarity. She is great about answering all your questions. I learned many practical ways to increase positive outcomes for some of my difficult to treat clients. I wish it had been several days long. Thanks Jennifer

gwen owen

She did a wonderful seminar! Usually I become very bored in seminars, however Jennifer was captivating and kept my interest for two days. I learned a great deal from her!

Devin Utz

Dr. Sweeton is super knowledgable and the 2 day EMDR webinar is a great overview to present EMDR! It hits on all of the aspects of EMDR general rules while also showing the flexibility of the therapy. Dr. Sweeton answers all questions and makes sure you have what you need to get started with this therapy. She understands the body and it is so interested for her to presents exactly why this therapy works for a person. I will definitely be looking up more trainings by Dr. Sweeton.

Bekah Whitney

I attended Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician by Dr. Sweeton and it was easily the best CEU seminar I've ever attended. Dr. Sweeton's approach was easy to follow, dynamic and her expertise really shined through. I appreciated learning a new approach to neuroscience topics I've been studying for years. I walked away with so much more knowledge and a better mind-body understanding of stress responses and interventions. I appreciated the layout of the seminar and how much information Dr. Sweeton was sharing in a one day training. I hope to take more courses from Dr. Sweeton in the future!

Diane Riopelle

I recently attended an all day seminar titled: Neuroscience for Clinicians, taught by Dr. Sweeton. Seminars do not usually capture my full attention for the entire day but I found this one to be a bit different. Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable about the subject matter, was very organized in her presentation, and kept it interesting by sharing case examples. I would be very interested in attending other seminars given by Dr. Sweeton.

Lynne Unger

I recently attended a workshop with Dr. Sweeton. Her knowledge of the material was excellent. Her presentation of a complex topic was easy to follow and understand. She added humor which makes, what was sometimes dense information more interesting.

Noreen Lange

Dr Sweeton presented an excellent Professional Development. Dr Sweeton has the gift of being able to take complex information and present it in a way that is easy to understand. I left this PD with much more understanding of the brain and practical tools to help clients build a resilient brain.

Susan Thomas

I just completed the 2 day EMDR Certificate Course with Dr. Sweeton. It was very thorough, well paced and explained complex brain functions and the 8 phase protocol very effectively. I was trained in EMDR 15 years ago (part I) and never completed part II b/c the population I worked with was so unstable and I feared doing harm. This course was an exceptional review for me and has given me confidence to move forward with EMDR in my work, even with very challenging ED children. Thank you Dr. Sweeton!

Jonathan Hopps

The teaching and learning was incredible. The materials were thorough and great references to access after the 2-day training. I felt confident and competent to embark on using EMDR with my clients walking out the door after day two. Jennifer's website has even more resources to access to additional tools.

Erica Wright

I just attended Jennifer's excellent seminar on neurobiology and trauma. She is an amazing presenter and easily explains complex systems dealing with psychotherapy, trauma and recovery. I highly recommend her work to any clinician working in mental health.

I really enjoyed how well she explained the treatment techniques and I have used what I have learned in my practice already! Thank you so much!

Catherine Mcconnell

I am already heavily biologically based but didn't have a strong foundation. This was a MAJOR step up! I can now better explain to my clients what is going on and am now better able to tailor exercises to what they need. I feel like this should be required for every clinician. I was already a fan, but this only solidified it. Will defenitely be keeping an eye out for more trainings and her new books!

Gwen Higgins

Went to her PESI seminar on EMDR. Great presenter,well organized, a lot of relevant info.

Maria McCabe

I just completed a training on Neuroscience with Dr Sweeton at Arlington, VA. I enjoyed it very much, not just for the updated information but for her knowledge and willingness to share it with the participants.

Understanding the link between mind-body-mental health was very enlightening to say the least, and has encouraged me to research more in this field to better serve my clients. I highly recommend any one that has not attended a seminar/presentation/training by Jennifer to find the nearest one and sign up! You will not be disappointed! 5 star presenter!

Danna Bozick

Dr. Sweeton was tireless as she described and explained key nervous system structures, functions and pathways and showed how trauma, stress, anxiety, depression and addiction impact brain function and structure and in turn how bottom-up and top-down therapeutic interventions can return the nervous system to healthy balance. Dr. Sweeton's thoroughness with explaining the brain research along with how-to interventions and why they work was very useful in her presentation Neuroscience for Clinicians and I was able to use gained knowledge with my clients the very next day.

Kevin Brooks

I greatly appreciated the vast amount of information that was presented in the two day training and the way in which it was presented - lot of great examples of how to take the information and make application to folks we are providing services to - found it very helpful.

I am on a mission to get everything she has done...

Jenna-Brie Engelke

I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to watch Dr. Sweeton in a live webcast on EMDR. Her presentation was easy to follow, she did not deviate from her slides, and she was clear and concise.

nora staring

My Colleagues and I attended Jennifer's training on Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician. We have been studying and learning a great deal about Neuroscience and Trauma but were so excited at how comprehensive and clearly Jennifer was able to present this valuable information. She added greatly to our understanding and provided us with take away techniques to assist clients, immediately. Her understanding of the field and ability to explain it was excellent. I hated to get up and leave for a rest room break in fear I'd miss something! I would attend this training again because it was so valuable and so filled with current information that I could not retain every bit:)

Beverley Duke-Young

Dr. Jennifer Sweeton is an awesome speaker. I got sooo much from this training, learning not only very useful information but confirming my ability to do some of this very meaningful work in my therapy practice. Great seminar!

Michelle Trent

Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable in the training I attended about Neuroscience for clinicians. This is, by far, one of the most instantly useful training that I've attended throughout my career. I was able to leave the training and put into place the activities, tools and skills she discussed. More than that, I knew WHY I was using a particular technique and why it would be helpful for my clients.

Lyndee Retzlaff

I attended one of Dr Sweeton's lectures in Seattle recently. Not the first I have attended on Neuroscience, BUT the first I have attended that showed me how to use my knowledge to create a more effective treatment plan. Excellent information, presented clearly and with humor. Dr. Sweeton has a high degree of knowledge and experience that she shares generously. Both my clients & I say a big "Thank you!"

KC Sturgis

I attended a 2-day Trauma Treatment Workshop with Dr. Sweeton and it was very helpful. The interventions covered (somatic-based, CBT and EMDR) were practical and easily applied to my work with clients. I appreciated that Dr. Sweeton connected the interventions presented to the brain science and research to give the backing of why specific interventions are helpful and beneficial for specific symptoms and issues clients are facing. Great training and I would definitely attend another training with Dr. Sweeton.

Angela Fagginger-Auer

I attended a neuroscience for clinicians training by Dr. Sweeton a few days ago and completely enjoyed it. She did a great job presenting the information, was knowledgeable and an overall great presenter. I would definitely be interested in seeing her present in the future.

I would take another workshop from her in a heartbeat!

Luis L

I will admit, that this was perhaps one of the best seminars that I have ever attended. Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable and her ability to educate on such complex material in such a relatable way is amazing. This seminar has definitely improved my approach to providing better treatment to my clients.

Sally Caldwell

Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable and responded to every query. She presented highly technical information with concrete analogies and personal experience stories and repetition, linking each piece of new information on top of previously learned information. She was joyful; sustained energy; and generous with links to rich resources.

Sandi John

Although I have had significant training and experience in treating trauma, Dr. Sweeton’s training provided a missing element. I left with new understanding of what brain structures each treatment approach targets and the likely mechanism of action. This information will greatly enhance the psychoeducation I provide to clients and my assessment of what interventions to use. I also greatly appreciated Dr. Sweeton’s very professional and also caring, respectful teaching style. She welcomed questions, dialogue, information from others and was clear when she did not know something. I highly recommend Dr. Sweeton’s training.

I recently attended Dr. Jennifer Sweeton's 3-Day EMDR conference in Monroeville, PA and she was so thorough and knowledgeable in her experience and training-she's AMAZING! I really enjoyed how well she explained the treatment techniques and I have used what I have learned in my practice already! Thank you so much!

Catherine Mcconnell

I am already heavily biologically based but didn't have a strong foundation. This was a MAJOR step up! I can now better explain to my clients what is going on and am now better able to tailor exercises to what they need. I feel like this should be required for every clinician. I was already a fan, but this only solidified it. Will defenitely be keeping an eye out for more trainings and her new books!

Gwen Higgins

Went to her PESI seminar on EMDR. Great presenter,well organized, a lot of relevant info.

Maria McCabe

I just completed a training on Neuroscience with Dr Sweeton at Arlington, VA. I enjoyed it very much, not just for the updated information but for her knowledge and willingness to share it with the participants. I highly recommend this training to professionals who want to bring something tangible to their practice. The knowledge is applicable and brings a different perspective on depression, anxiety, trauma, anger and other presentations we as clinicians see on a day to day.

Andrea Betting

I recently took Dr. Sweeton’s trauma certification class, online. She was engaging, entertaining and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. I highly recommend her classes.

Julianne Williams

I attended the 'Building a Resilient Brain' workshop in Melbourne. Dr Jennifer was brilliant. The workshop was dealing with the latest research regarding neuroscience and the brain. Jennifer is so knowledgable in this area and made difficult concepts very accessible. Jennifer uses really clear metaphors to help understand how areas of the brain connect. The interventions that Jennifer presented in treating psychological disorders were purposeful and practical.

JoAnne Butz

I attended Dr. Sweeton's 3 day EMDR Certification Course in Monroeville, Pennsylvania last week. I learned so much during those 3 days! The presentation was clear, concise, and very hands on. I would gladly take another course with Dr. Sweeton.

Jennie Jorgensen

Very helpful and informative 2 day event that will continue to enhance my practice skills with clients. Jennifer is a highly skilled clinician with a honest and genuine approach to working with clients!

Steve Peters

I recently had the opportunity to attend the PESI training that Jennifer Sweeton, Psy.D., M.S., MA, presented regarding Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician. I've been to several trainings regarding neuroscience, but not one of them was able to present the information in such a detailed, clear and applicable way. The information presented was specific to professional mental health therapist and was easily accessible for application with client's. Understanding the link between mind-body-mental health was very enlightening to say the least, and has encouraged me to research more in this field to better serve my clients. I highly recommend any one that has not attended a seminar/presentation/training by Jennifer to find the nearest one and sign up! You will not be disappointed! 5 star presenter!

Danna Bozick

Dr. Sweeton was tireless as she described and explained key nervous system structures, functions and pathways and showed how trauma, stress, anxiety, depression and addiction impact brain function and structure and in turn how bottom-up and top-down therapeutic interventions can return the nervous system to healthy balance. Dr. Sweeton's thoroughness with explaining the brain research along with how-to interventions and why they work was very useful in her presentation Neuroscience for Clinicians and I was able to use gained knowledge with my clients the very next day.

Kevin Brooks

I greatly appreciated the vast amount of information that was presented in the two day training and the way in which it was presented - lot of great examples of how to take the information and make application to folks we are providing services to - found it very helpful.

Xavier Justice

Dr. Sweeton is among the giants and geniuses of trauma and this EMDR - 2 day course was one of the best. She clearly articulates the theoretical and the practical underpinnings of EMDR and showcases the "how to's" in a way that helps you to quickly develop your acumen and make you a better clinician. I am on a mission to get everything she has done...

Jenna-Brie Engelke

I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to watch Dr. Sweeton in a live webcast on EMDR. Her presentation was easy to follow, she did not deviate from her slides, and she was clear and concise. Her knowledge and expertise made me feel confident that I was getting some of the best initial training in this technique.

Elaine Rinfrette

Went to a one day training with Jennifer. She is extremely knowledgeable on the topic of the neurological bases of trauma and interventions to help clients overcome symptoms of trauma. She is a great speakers, approachable, and responsive to questions and comments. I highly recommend her seminars. Elaine Rinfrette, MSW, PhD

nora staring

My Colleagues and I attended Jennifer's training on Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician. We have been studying and learning a great deal about Neuroscience and Trauma but were so excited at how comprehensive and clearly Jennifer was able to present this valuable information. She added greatly to our understanding and provided us with take away techniques to assist clients, immediately. Her understanding of the field and ability to explain it was excellent. I hated to get up and leave for a rest room break in fear I'd miss something! I would attend this training again because it was so valuable and so filled with current information that I could not retain every bit:)

Beverley Duke-Young

Dr. Jennifer Sweeton is an awesome speaker. I got sooo much from this training, learning not only very useful information but confirming my ability to do some of this very meaningful work in my therapy practice. Great seminar!

Michelle Trent

Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable in the training I attended about Neuroscience for clinicians. This is, by far, one of the most instantly useful training that I've attended throughout my career. I was able to leave the training and put into place the activities, tools and skills she discussed. More than that, I knew WHY I was using a particular technique and why it would be helpful for my clients.

Lyndee Retzlaff

I attended one of Dr Sweeton's lectures in Seattle recently. Not the first I have attended on Neuroscience, BUT the first I have attended that showed me how to use my knowledge to create a more effective treatment plan. Excellent information, presented clearly and with humor. Dr. Sweeton has a high degree of knowledge and experience that she shares generously. Both my clients & I say a big "Thank you!"

KC Sturgis

I attended a 2-day Trauma Treatment Workshop with Dr. Sweeton and it was very helpful. The interventions covered (somatic-based, CBT and EMDR) were practical and easily applied to my work with clients. I appreciated that Dr. Sweeton connected the interventions presented to the brain science and research to give the backing of why specific interventions are helpful and beneficial for specific symptoms and issues clients are facing. Great training and I would definitely attend another training with Dr. Sweeton.

Angela Fagginger-Auer

I attended a neuroscience for clinicians training by Dr. Sweeton a few days ago and completely enjoyed it. She did a great job presenting the information, was knowledgeable and an overall great presenter. I would definitely be interested in seeing her present in the future.

Alicia Todd

Dr. Sweeton is an extremely knowledgeable presenter. She distilled very complex information into a very accessible format that participants havig a range of clinical experience could use. I would attend any workshop or presentation offered by her

Darcie Sharp

I recently attended Dr. Sweeton's 2-Day Workshop: EMDR, CBT & Somatic Based Interventions in Sacramento, CA. I was absolutely captivated by Dr. Sweeton's knowledge, expertise and exceptional ability to convey the subject matter in a way that was easily understood, retained and immediately applicable to both my professional and personal life. I left with a renewed sense of hope and excitement in working with those who suffer from traumatic experiences. I would highly recommend attending her workshops.

Milton Woolley

I found Jennifer ‘s class to be extremely enlightening, practical and very interesting. I have been an MFT for 40 years and I think Jennifer’s class was one of the best I’ve experienced in my career. Thank you Jennifer!

Tamela Christiansen

Dr. Sweeton exceeded my expectations and then some. Her presentation was informative, entertaining and gave me more data, research, and application then I could have hoped for. It was time and money well spent. She is my new guru.

Nancy Eveleth

I recently attended a workshop Dr. Sweeton presented on "Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician". She is a great speaker. She presented the material in a way that everyone could understand and that kept my attention. The treatment interventions she reviewed, including examples from her own work with clients, was especially helpful. I left the workshop feeling motivated and excited to implement what I had learned. I would take another workshop from her in a heartbeat!

Luis L

I will admit, that this was perhaps one of the best seminars that I have ever attended. Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable and her ability to educate on such complex material in such a relatable way is amazing. This seminar has definitely improved my approach to providing better treatment to my clients.

Sally Caldwell

Dr. Sweeton was very knowledgeable and responded to every query. She presented highly technical information with concrete analogies and personal experience stories and repetition, linking each piece of new information on top of previously learned information. She was joyful; sustained energy; and generous with links to rich resources.

Sandi John

Although I have had significant training and experience in treating trauma, Dr. Sweeton’s training provided a missing element. I left with new understanding of what brain structures each treatment approach targets and the likely mechanism of action. This information will greatly enhance the psychoeducation I provide to clients and my assessment of what interventions to use. I also greatly appreciated Dr. Sweeton’s very professional and also caring, respectful teaching style. She welcomed questions, dialogue, information from others and was clear when she did not know something. I highly recommend Dr. Sweeton’s training.

Kate Buffington

I really enjoyed her class on Neuroscience and the Modern Clinician. My only complaint was that one day was not enough!

sayogee pe

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop on 02/08/2019. It was fantastic, very informative with lots of relevant content to practice. She really captivated everybody in the room with her knowledge and delivery. Her book 'Trauma treatment toolbox" worth buying, very easy to read, thanks for signing it for me :)

Aimee Franson

I truly enjoyed her training. For the first time in a long time I felt like I learned new material. I highly recommend her resources. Very knowledgeable.

Lisa Tolliver

HIGHLY recommended! If you're a mental health clinician who works in the field of trauma treatment or eating disorders, I highly recommend you receive ANY of Dr. Sweeton's trainings that you can. I received EMDR training from her and it was top-notch! There are many trainers with whom you could contract for EMDR training, but her educational background gives her a far 'deeper bench' of knowledge, and it SHOWS. (She holds a Doctoral degree from Stanford Med. School, studies in behavioral genetics from Harvard Med, an additional Masters' in affective neuroscience (also, Stanford), and a stint at the National Center for PTSD.) Though neuroscience is her passion, don't, however, think that she'll talk in 'jargon.' She explains the science behind the therapeutic interventions in a way that any clinician can understand! Furthermore, she does so without watering down concepts-- which is quite a feat. At the end of the first day, I overheard several clinicians remark that Dr. Sweeton was the first trainer they had who could explain the neuroscience of trauma & healing in a manner they could understand. Several said that they now felt empowered to teach about the psychobiology of trauma and recovery with their clientele! If you are seeking a source of excellent, professional-level training, Dr. Sweeton's courses should be your first choice.

Doug Schnackel

Excellent information that I am immediately able to apply to my work with kids. Dr. Sweeton presented content in a manner that was well-balanced between basic and advanced information, and readily understood.

Chris Healey

I attended Dr. Sweeton's "Neuroscience For Clinicians" seminar several weeks ago. Many times I've walked away from seminars and trainings that were all good in their own ways, but felt like there just wasn't enough explanation or discussion about "X". Jennifer, in my opinion, made what could have easily had been a weekend introductory course, a manageable and understandable training. She's extremely knowledgeable and professional, along with an easy-going way of presenting the material.

The Couple and Family Clinic

I was at the talk Jennifer gave a few weeks ago at Turf Valley. Of all of the CEU events I've attended since becoming licensed (5 years ago), hers was one of my top 3 favorites. She is an excellent presenter. Thanks again!

Nicole Hernandez

I attended her EMDR seminar and it was really well presented, well-informed, and easy to follow. Dr. Sweeton was helpful and knowledgeable. I feel adequately trained providing EMDR and definitely plan on looking out for additional training from her. Thank you!

Richard Wheeler

This was easily one of the best trainings I have ever attended. Dr. Sweeton does an excellent job of explaining complex concepts in an easy-to understand way. She provided specific tools to apply these concepts directly to clinical work. It was an interesting, informative, and engaging seminar - the day went by so fast! I plan to attend any training of hers in the future.

Nancy N.

Jennifer rocks! She really knows her stuff and she's organized. One of the best trainings I've had.

Michele Johnson

I attended Dr. Sweeton's seminar last week Friday and was energized by the practical information and scientific facts behind many of the interventions we use. She was very knowledgeable and the day flew by like minutes. I can give my clients a better understanding of the why behind the techniques now.

Antoinette Walker

This was my first neuroscience training. I was already excited about this work but Jennifer really provided information in very clear and easy to understand terms. Also provided numerous resources that will be helpful with my clients. I would have loved this to be 2 days as the afternoon materials could have been expanded. Great training!!!

Milica Deban

I've recently attended Dr Sweeton's workshop in Brisbane and I really enjoyed learning about new developments in brain neuroscience presented in a enjoyable and engaging way. The material presented was educational and practical eg Brain Changing Interventions were especially helpful. I will highly recommend this workshop to my colleagues. Kind regards Milica

Talia Intrator

Dr. Jennifer Sweeton is a talented, informative, educational, and engaging speaker. Her seminar provides a great amount of knowledge, strategies, and tools for the mental health field as well as many other fields. Her seminar, Neuroscience for Clinicians: Brain Changes for Stress, Anxiety, Trauma, Moods, and Addiction was powerful. Excellent and a wonderful experience.

Patricia McAteer

I recently attended a seminar led by Dr. Sweeton - it was so informative. I learned so much from this seminar.

Milo Milburn

I just completed the three-day EMDR intensive with Dr. Sweeton. I am deeply appreciative of what I received, including the valuable practice sessions applying EMD and EMDR. I have had a couple of EMDR trainings prior to this, and while they were helpful, this was by far the most helpful. The first day presentation on neuroscience was excellent context for the components of EMDR practices. Dr. Sweeton was very generous in terms of helpful materials. My EMDR competence took a definitive step forward.

Nicole Albertson

I attended Dr. Sweeton's conference on neuroscience for clinicians and learned a great deal about how the brain communicates, functions, and relates to mental health diagnoses. Dr. Sweeton was informative, organized, and relevant to today's clinicians, especially those of us working with traumatized clients. I highly recommend her seminars.

Brian S. McCallum

Dr. Sweeton is not only knowledgeable, but also practical. She is well-versed in the clinical research yet knows how to translate findings to apply in the trenches of work with clients. I attended her all-day workshop in Illinois, and I wish the workshop were 2 days longer!

Leslie Rodriguez

Dr. Sweeton's presentation on Neuroscience for Clinicians was a delight & Amazing! It was highly informative and evidence based research was presented. If you are seeking to go to a conference and would like to be kept on your toes with current therapeutic techniques-- Dr. Sweeton's presentations is a go!

Jennifer Lux Manz

I recently took a Live Webinar training with Dr. Sweeton through PESI. I was more than impressed with her level of expertise as well as her knack for explaining complicated information in a manageable, user-friendly way. She has sparked a professional curiosity in me that I look forward to pursuing!

Dcn. Marques Silva

Excellent presenter who is not only a subject matter expert but also has the rare ability to distill and communicate a complex subject in lay terms. Very good examples.

Ellen Walker

The seminar was career changing! I was able to better conceptualize the literature and information I had previously learned from Bessel Van Der Kolk, Eric Gentry, Brenee Brown and view from the neurological lens. Dr. Sweeton shared critical data in a succinct, reader-friendly way along with techniques applicable to specific treatment areas corresponding to areas of the brain. I have already been implementing said techniques into practice.

Sarah Covell

Attended an all-day seminar called Neuroscience for Clinicians, presented by Dr. Sweeton, and she definitely left me wanting more...in a very good way! She is obviously extremely knowledgable and passionate about this hugely important topic but--crucial for an 8-hour seminar--conveys her knowledge in a way that's accessible, humorous, and real. She gave me tools I can use NOW with my clients but also provided the data to satisfy my investigative hunger. Highly recommended as a presenter, and I imagine she's an excellent clinician as well.

Susan Parker

Dr. Sweeton is an outstanding presenter of very valuable information. Her knowledge and presence demonstrate her compentency and expertise.

Daphne Berta

An excellent seminar and well-rounded presenter; however it is too much information to put into two days, the third is really required.

Megan McCabe

I attended the 'Building A Resilient Brain workshop on 02/08/2019. It was fantastic, very informative with lots of relevant content to practice. Jennifer presents the info brilliantly as well.

bjgraham

I recently attended Dr. Sweeton's seminar: Neuroscience for the Modern Clinician and the title doesn't lie. I've been out of graduate school for a while and the information provided during this seminar made me realize I have a lot of catching up to do in regards to where the field of psychology intersects with neuroscience nowadays. There has been a lot of progress made in our understanding of the various brain pathways, how they relate and where they intersect. I feel that the material presented was solidly research-based and up-to-date. The subject matter was complex but it was presented in an exceptionally direct, clear and 'make sense' way that made it easy to understand. Dr. Sweeton knows her stuff and kept the audience engaged all the way down to that 4pm end-of-day hour. In addition to basic information about the brain and its functions, the course provided practical guidance on how to translate all that technical information into clinical insight and then took it another step further. Dr. Sweeton laid out a useful roadmap of the specific therapeutic interventions that would best serve a particular client. The information about the more non-traditional, more body-focused rather than cognitive-focused interventions was especially useful. Turns out there has been a lot of research done in that area, finally. I was looking forward to attending the seminar because I'm science-minded and thought it would catch me up on the latest research. Goal accomplished. The unexpected bonus is that I came away with new insight and new tools that will immediately impact how I work with some of my most challenging clients.

Bekka Sartwell

I recently attended a neuroscience seminar conducted by Dr. Sweeton. This seminar has helped me sharpen my focus in applying neuroscience in my therapy practice.

Dr. Sweeton was not only extremely knowledgeable about neuroscience and how it translates to counseling professionals, but was able to explain it in such a demystifying way that made the material approachable and memorable. I thoroughly enjoyed this class and my interest for neuroscience has only intensified as a result of my attendance.

George Belton

Excellent presenter. Information well laid out. What I think was the best though was her willingness to take and completely respond to questions in a positive way. She presented the intricacies and the neurology of EMDR well.

Chelsea Brustad

Fantastic presenter! She was able to really connect with every profession in the room. She is passionate for this topic and it really showed in her presentation. She truly believes in her research and has the evidence to prove it! I have used her techniques with my clients and they report that her techniques really help!

Brianna Smith

Dr. Sweeton is extremely knowledgable, not only in the current best-practices and cutting edge methodologies being used to treat trauma, but also the neurological processes and implications involved in trauma and healing. Her workshop was very informative and left me feeling significantly more prepared to begin working with trauma in my clinical hours. As a graduate student, Dr. Sweeton took the information from my trauma course and brought even more breadth and depth to my training. I am excited to continue learning and look forward to a more advanced workshop in the future after some time practicing what I learned!

Traci Witt

Her presentation was very informative and practical. I appreciated how she intertwined the research with her personal experiences. Her examples better allowed me to understand the material. She is extremely engaging and the 2 days went by way to fast. I would definitely go to any other presentations she does!!!!!

Joseph Viana

An excellent presentation on the impact of trauma, anxiety and substance misuse on neuro functions .

Lisa Ottenhoff

I had the opportunity to attend Dr. Sweeton's 2-Day Mastery Course on Neuroscience Informed Therapy in NYC. I was very impressed with Dr. Sweeton's instructional style. She has taken a very complicated topic and delivers it in a way that is easily understandable and very informative. The information that she presents is definitely a great addition to my therapeutic tool box and I have gained a great deal of techniques and information to pass along to my clients.

Terri Kasprzak

I attended a 6 hour workshop of Dr. Sweetin's in Buffalo re: Brain based Therapy and Practical Neuroscience for Trauma, Developmental Trauma, Attachment, and Emotional Regulation. I could have sat and listened for 6 more hours. It was fantastic!

Courtney Huddleston

Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter on Neuroscience and Therapy! I had the opportunity to participate in a webinar through PESI where she presented on Neuroscience-Informed Therapy, and she was thoroughly informative about foundations of Neuroscience related to mental health as well as great at teaching the application in psychotherapy for clinicians. I would definitely attend another seminar of hers and will be using this foundational information for the rest of my career.

Janelle Pysz

Dr. Sweeton was an amazing presenter! I attended her training on neuroscience in Buffalo and learned so much! She was very interactive, funny and engaging. I recommend her training and would attend another if it becomes available to me.

Alison Winston

I attended a presentation by Dr. Sweeton on Neuroscience for Clinicians on 10/23/17. Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter who knows the material extremely well and gave a very informative and enlightening presentation. She maintained my attention with her enthusiasm and knowledge about the materials. This is probably the best workshop I have attended through PESI and I would highly recommend it to any mental health clinicians interested in learning about brain-based strategies for working with different mental health issues.

Kate Buffington

Her presentation was very informative and practical. I appreciated how she intertwined the research with her personal experiences. Her examples better allowed me to understand the material. She is extremely engaging and the 2 days went by way to fast. I would definitely go to any other presentations she does!!!!!

I had the opportunity to attend Dr. Sweeton's 2-Day Mastery Course on Neuroscience Informed Therapy in NYC. I was very impressed with Dr. Sweeton's instructional style. She has taken a very complicated topic and delivers it in a way that is easily understandable and very informative. The information that she presents is definitely a great addition to my therapeutic tool box and I have gained a great deal of techniques and information to pass along to my clients.

I attended a 6 hour workshop of Dr. Sweetin's in Buffalo re: Brain based Therapy and Practical Neuroscience for Trauma, Developmental Trauma, Attachment, and Emotional Regulation. I could have sat and listened for 6 more hours. It was fantastic!

Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter on Neuroscience and Therapy! I had the opportunity to participate in a webinar through PESI where she presented on Neuroscience-Informed Therapy, and she was thoroughly informative about foundations of Neuroscience related to mental health as well as great at teaching the application in psychotherapy for clinicians. I would definitely attend another seminar of hers and will be using this foundational information for the rest of my career.

Dr. Sweeton was an amazing presenter! I attended her training on neuroscience in Buffalo and learned so much! She was very interactive, funny and engaging. I recommend her training and would attend another if it becomes available to me.

Alison Winston

I attended a presentation by Dr. Sweeton on Neuroscience for Clinicians on 10/23/17. Dr. Sweeton is an excellent presenter who knows the material extremely well and gave a very informative and enlightening presentation. She maintained my attention with her enthusiasm and knowledge about the materials. This is probably the best workshop I have attended through PESI and I would highly recommend it to any mental health clinicians interested in learning about brain-based strategies for working with different mental health issues.
