“Lonnie has really helped us grow our communications skills. We appreciate his expertise (including niche areas), his compassion, and his non-judgemental. He makes us to feel safe to be honest and with him and each other.
The only constructive thought is to balance the finely honed promoting questions (e.g. an astute and specific interpretation of a specific issue) [which tend to be a bit more emphasized] with the more open ended questions [which a bit less emphaszed].”
