It's frustrating getting a one-word reply to a question!
Closed-ended questions yield short answers like “Yes” or “No”. Open-ended questions leave space for more detailed answers. Have a conversation using open-ended questions & see how it works for you!

The CfE at Youth Research Inc. extends a heartfelt thank you to Liberty Resources, NAFI NY & New Directions for their commitment to hiring therapists for this vital work, Family Therapy Training Institute of Miami (FTTIM) for training our therapists & NY OCFS for your partnership with YRI. #BSFT
