"The staff at FTTIM is extremely helpful and has been supportive of my staff and mission of District Heights Family and Youth Services Center. Our experience with Silvia [Kaminsky, Master Trainer] has been terrific. She not only is a mentor to the newly certified BSFT clinicians, but also a professional colleague that we admire and trust. Thank you for the wonderful experience even though we are miles away."
