Join Orian Lathrop AMFT and Brian Delshad AMFT for an interactive webinar on the topic of vulnerability. You will be given specific tools to help you move away from perfectionism and create space for vulnerability in your life and relationships. When you are vulnerable, you open yourself up to being loved for who you are, just as you are. When you set an example of vulnerability for others, they feel safe with and cared for by you.
