What's this course all about? In this lecture I introduce the course and my own background - including how my interest in failure to launch came about.

PLEASE NOTE: The lecture makes reference to a course manual. You DO have access to ALL of this material, but it appears in a set of different documents that are downloadable from lectures labelled DOCUMENT throughout the course. If you download each of these, by the end of the course you will have a complete set. We do this so that you can save these documents as separate pdf files that you can then print out individually as needed for your clients (rather than having to search through a booklet for the form or handout on, eg, page 14. We recommend that you create a file folder on your computer in which you can store all of these documents so that you can find the one you want when a client is with you. The primary and largest document contains the slide handouts, and you can find this in the third "lecture" in the series.
