Testimonials

Project Echo has been a valuable learning experience for me and I have learned and incorporated new ideas into my practice as a direct result of my participation. Each session consists of a brief didactic presentation followed by a group discussion centered around a case presentation. I find that sharing in a group setting and seeing how others approach problems to be a good way of synthesizing how I would or might approach things in my daily practice. I highly recommend participation in Project Echo learning.

Pediatrician - Depression Cohort
I feel so much more comfortable in my management of mental health because of these echo classes. I love the content of the classes. They are aimed at the primary care provider. This has been especially helpful in our current mental health crisis. The format with a didactic followed by a case is engaging. I also appreciate the virtual nature of the classes because it makes it much easier to attend.

Participant – Taken multiple cohorts
I was able to get a severely anxious teenager with selective mutism on a medication regimen that lowered her anxiety enough to allow her to participate in talk-based counseling.
