“I am grateful to you for this workshop series. I loved this experience, you are a beautiful, wise, generous and kind soul – a true gift, and your gifts have been very much enjoyed here and appreciated by me and others. I feel…no I know I started something here this week that I really want to continue. A fabulous range of material, references, to do’s, experiences, exercises. I love the combination/marriage/relationship of mind/body/spirit/emotions, and health/wellness/spirituality that you lead us in.”

“Attending Jeffry’s workshop on stress and burnout provided me with immediate tools I could use for negotiating.  He clearly defined methods to deal with the stress that comes from certain triggers in our world. Whether it’s dealing with a stressful deadline, a difficult person, a complex work situation or simply feeling like you’re constantly carrying a heavy workload, Jeffry teaches how to step back, assess a situation, control your own response, and lower your own stress.  The skills he taught in just a single workshop enabled me to change my approach while negotiating with a very difficult person. Well worth the time!!”

“Jeffry, I really liked that you made the workshop more personal by asking each of us about our stressors.  Your feedback and suggestions related to my stress challenges was very helpful.  Walking through each stress management skill was excellent, there is nothing like having practice with adjustments from the instructor immediately.  Your handout has great info, and will be helpful when I practice the skills at home and work, well done!  This is the last stress management program I will ever need.”

“I really appreciated the stress assessment form which you had has us fill out at the start of the workshop.  It taught me to see how many areas of my life are significantly stressful, and what patterns exist in how my stress shows itself.  Also, your well-organized overview of the varieties of types of stress management strategies was great.  It was very helpful to experience these different strategies during the training.”

“We recently had Jeffry do a presentation at our hospital on cutting edge stress management.  His PowerPoint presentation was very dynamic and thought-provoking. He taught us new techniques that have proven to be very effective for many of the participants.  Jeffry’s new ideas and also his physiological explanation of stress were great because the topic of stress has been covered in many classes, but often it is the ‘same old stuff.’  His delivery is organized, quick, and filled with witty comments which had many of us walk away with a positive feeling and a ‘can do’ attitude.”
