Personal Growth Services and Training Programs
Many metropolitan areas have free directories that list personal growth services and training programs (for example, Common Ground in the San Francisco Bay Area). These programs are usually not degree oriented, and may vary in quality, so talk about your needs with graduates and staff of programs you might be interested in. You should also discuss your needs with reputable psychotherapists, trainers, and/or educators in your area.
