What People Are Saying
Your talks are amazing and so helpful!
I have to say, you are an amazing educator and you do make it so accessible. I’ve read a lot about trauma but it always sticks with me so much more hearing it from someone like you who can explain it to me!
— Britt Urban, LCSW | Mental Health Crisis Clinician PORTLAND FIRE & RESCUE | PORTLAND STREET RESPONSE
"Your talk was absolutely extraordinary: big-hearted, evidence-based, generous, useful.
Thank you thank you thank you. You are a gift"
—Jessica Gregg, MD | Chief Medical Officer of Fora Health | Portland, OR
"You gained a few dozen mega-fans these last few weeks!! There were doulas, social workers, physicians, midwives, nurses, students, and administrators on the calls. Prompted and unprompted, I heard only high praise these last couple weeks. As a budding presenter myself, I personally desire to receive constructive criticism. Unfortunately for you, I have and heard only positive feedback: People loved that it was in a series. People were impressed with your expertise, knowledge, and credentials, acknowledging you as a local expert and leader. I found that you were able to engage over the virtual format. People said they could listen to you talk for many more hours (maybe that was the criticism, not enough Lydia!).
Learning how to improve our care and understanding of substance use disorder is timely and essential. We have a fairly large in- and outpatient, multidisciplinary workgroup reviewing our care of SUD/OUD and ESC/NOWS at Legacy. High on our priority list is patient-facing education and education to staff. This series will help immensely!"
