What Audiences Have Said:
"Erickson is a blockbuster!"
"Beth's presentation was very clear.
She is a wonderful presenter ... who demonstrates the wonderful
balance of combining theory with instinct. A great workshop!
I'd recommend any of Beth's [presentations] to my colleagues."
"Thank God she exists!"
"What a treat and privilege to
see and hear you once again!... You are one of the very
best speakers I have heard. You are so bright and articulate,
yet you make it so clear and applicable with your real-life
examples, your honesty, your humor, and your keen insights."
"I have never heard anyone convey
theoretical material and have such an emotional impact as
Beth did. She presented with clarity and feeling. The single
best presenter I have ever heard. She taught me and made
me feel to the core!"
"Beth was magnificent, intense,
learned, and accomplished."
"Beth's enthusiasm and desire to
communicate is a pleasure."
"Beth is a brilliant speaker using
terrific cognitive material and hitting us hard emotionally."
"Beth Erickson is a joy and pleasure
to listen to. [She's] a highly sensitive expert."
"Beth is wonderful! All I can give
her is praise and thank you for the gift she gave me."
"Beth established rapport with
us right in the beginning and never lost me for a moment.
She's obviously a very skilled presenter."
"Beth Erickson is very dynamic
and dedicated. She opened new horizons."
"Beth was excellent in all ways!"
"I could have listened all day."
What Conference Organizers Have Said:
"Dr. Erickson's work is above reproach.
She is a meticulous therapist with great human concern for
the individuals involved. Her clinical judgments and interventions
are sound and she does an excellent job of bringing her
clinical experience to the classroom when she teaches. I
highly commend her and her work."
"I want you to know that I thank you
and appreciate you. We have some people who come to your
presentations just because you are giving them, not because
they have a particular interest in the subject. It's hard
to be with you and not learn!"
"Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was
delighted with the program and the feedback was superb."
"The responses to your training were
overwhelmingly positive, and I personally found your presentations
to be insightful, informative, and interesting. Thank you."
"The reviews are in, and you were a big
hit! I haven't heard one negative response."
"The overall response to your presentation
was very positive. The main element that people felt most
appreciative about was your willingness and ability to share
with us your own vulnerability. That is very powerful, Beth."
"Our students really enjoyed your presentation...
It is always a joy to present our students with excellent
teachers from outside our faculty. Clearly you fall into
this category."
"Beth's magnetism and honesty were very
refreshing."
"Dr. Erickson is one of the very best
speakers on this subject! She is very knowledgeable yet
easy to understand."
"What an excellent presentation you gave
us. One hears and reads many fine words on this important
subject Ð but your words and insights were special.... Your
presence, style, and directness all added to the validity
of your presentation. Thank you."
What Patients Have
Said:
"My wife and I have seen 20 therapists
... between the two of us while experiencing three different
marriages and literally dozens of relationships that didn't
work.... For both of us, you are the first therapist competent
and caring enough and with enough guts ... to pull back
our sugar-coated, protective layers of denial in order to
expose our deep-seated wounds to scrutiny and healing."
"We owe so much of the stability in our
family to you.... Life is now good. Thank you for all you've
contributed. You've given us so much!"
"Knowing I can trust you completely means
so much to me. I feel that I can tell you my deepest hurts
or my darkest secrets and you will treat them with respect
and gentle understanding. Thank you for being who you are,
for being the one I needed and being there when I needed
you."
"Your presence is a sign in my own life
that I can embrace the past and push on ahead."
"Thank you for flowers that bloom amid
the tears, for words from the heart, and for you caring
at a time when it mattered so very much."
"I find it difficult to express how much
gratitude I hold for the contribution you have made to my
being able to change my life. As I grow, I find each day
fulfilling and more rewarding as a result of the growth
process you helped me to begin."
What Students Have
Said:
"I am impressed with my overall experience.
This class, which at first was going to be just another
class, wasn't. I was challenged to dig deeper ... to look
into myself to see who I am by seeing a little closer who
my family is.... I really enjoyed this class and appreciate
your presence, gentleness, experience and wisdom which you
shared with us all."
"When I grow up I want to be just like
Beth Erickson!"
"The Mediation Training [you provided]
was a great experience for me. There is no question that
your insight into the mediation process was extremely beneficial
to us lawyers who sometimes lean toward being control freaks.
The most important thing I learned from you was how to reframe
questions and ask open-ended questions.... I have already
put it to use with my four-year-old and two-year-old daughters.
By the way, I was particularly impressed by your enthusiasm."
"Thank you for presenting this course.
It is obvious how much you care about your work and your
students' learning. I don't usually (in fact, never) write
instructors notes of thanks."
"I felt I should in this case. You
have presented information in a way that really promotes
self-analysis and the desire to learn more. I know I will
apply this course work in my own work and life."
"Brilliant, clear, beautifully organized.
I learned a lot and experienced a lot from this one. Erickson
is a strong teacher and managed to impart a large quantity
of information in a measured, relaxed way."
What Referring Colleagues Have Said:
"I have known Dr. Erickson for approximately
five years. During that time I have found her to be brilliant
in her knowledge and insight as well as being without equal
in her ability to understand the inner working of her clients'
psyches and her skill in helping them grow... She certainly
has the tremendous talent and gift of being able to masterfully
and delicately guide and assist levels of change as I have
seen no other therapist do." A.K., D.O.
"Thank you again for assisting in the
management of my patients. You are deeply appreciated by
everyone who has ever had professional contact with you.
Thank you so much." M.B., M.D.
"You did it again. Mr. X is another success."
B.S., M.D.
"Patient Y told me that one of the greatest
things I ever did was to send him to you. He says that single
session ... helped him more than anything I have ever done
for him, and that he is still grateful for that even today."
S.B., M.D.
"I want to thank you very much for the
excellent, compassionate, thorough, and concrete job you
did evaluating the Z family. I was especially impressed
by the way you presented distressing news to both parents
without mincing words but without being unnecessarily harsh....
I want you to know that your recommendations were among
the best I have ever seen." M.K., Esq.
"I believe you to be a therapist and
person of exceptional quality and value. You have made a
tremendous impact on the quality of people's lives. Thank
you!" S.L., M.D.
