New Workshops


Workshops for parents and teachers are now available in persona and through Zoom. Workshops address the social/emotional and behavioral issues commonly seen among gifted children, and provide guidance and support for teachers and parents concerned about supporting them within the schools. 


For more information about the next upcoming interactive gifted parenting workshop (similar to the Gifted Parenting Journey workshop offered currently), please subscribe to my mailing list or contact me at gailpostphd@gmail.com.


Workshop topics listed below focus on guiding teachers and parents toward a greater understanding of the gifted child. Open-ended, discussion-oriented workshops also are available as a support for working with gifted children, since greater self-discovery and an appreciation of one's own needs as a parent or teacher often best inform both parenting and teaching. My experience as a Clinical Psychologist and group psychotherapist contributes to providing a safe and informative experience for those attending these workshops.

(Note: Educational consultation or coaching is not the best option when a psychoeducational evaluation or psychotherapy is needed. If you contact me and it seems clear that a consultation would not serve your needs, I will refer you to the appropriate services.)
