411. “Out There” Assessment: Spirit, Mind, Body, and Clay w/ Dr. Layne Kalbfleisch

Would you rather read the transcript? Click here. In this series, I’m talking with assessment practitioners who work in unique environments or specialties. The hope is to shine a light on some of the more unorthodox and creative ways to use our assessment skills.  Each interview follows the same structure: a short exploration of the employment environment, a discussion about the pros and cons of this environment, and ideas about how to pursue that particular area of practice. My guest on today’s episode is Dr. Layne Kalbfleisch. Layne is a private practice owner, author, speaker, educator, and many other things! She works primarily with tribal adolescents and their families in northern New Mexico.
