Summary 

Brain health, as well as emotional issues, influence the way clients engage in love and react in relationships. In this workshop, the presenters will examine the 12 Dragons from the Past, known as the big emotional issues, which breathe fire on clients’ brains and disrupt how they relate in their most important relationships. Licensed mental health professionals and ministry leaders will see how changes in brain function can impact individuals and, subsequently, those they care about. This workshop will be immediately applicable to clinical practice.
