>> Brain Fog Programs via Video Conference (Click to expand/collapse)

Although we feel strongly that participation in the program in a face-to-face format is best, the Brain Fog program is also offered via video conferencing. This option is designed specifically to reach those persons residing in remote areas, to organizations lacking the funding to train in-house program leaders, or to locations where a trained facilitator is not currently available.

Dr. Palmer ran a pilot video conference Brain Fog program over the 2012 summer months, which allowed us to reach 5 participating locations simultaneously: Hearth Place (Oshawa, ON), Hope&Cope (Montreal, Quebec), Hope Spring (Waterloo/Kitchener, ON), Wellspring Calgary (Alberta), as well as an individual from a private residence in Alberta.

The program is delivered solely by Dr. Heather Palmer, and will run on an as-needed basis, depending upon the availability of Dr. Palmer. Please contact us for further details.
