Herpes
Foundation Teleclasses
A Teleclass is an innovative, exciting way to share knowledge. Teleclasses
are just like any other “real” classes, but they are held
over the telephone with a number of other people on the same telephone
“bridge”.
The Herpes Resource Center's Foundation Teleclasses are a perfect forum
for people requiring information and support in a confidential, anonymous
manner. These classes expand your knowledge and understanding of the
issues surrounding herpes and give you effective, hands-on tools to
help you tackle them.
We will discuss practical matters about this virus in a safe, interactive
environment, as well as address the feelings of guilt, frustration,
fear, hurt or emotional distress you may be experiencing. This combination
of support and information will give you self-confidence, empower you
to leave the stigma behind and help you live a "life beyond herpes”.
The
Herpes Foundation Classes are facilitated by Jocelyn Rose. Jocelyn is
a licensed counsellor who became specialized in herpes while mentoring
under Dr. Stephen Sacks (author of "The Truth About Herpes")
at the Viridae Clinic in Vancouver, BC. You can learn more about Jocelyn
by reading her bio
at www.jocelynrose.com.

oral and genital herpes. We will discuss a number of different approaches
to treatment, questions you may wish to ask your physician, as well

treatment. We'll also cover some important issues surrounding natural
health products and give you some good resources that will aid you
in being an informed consumer of health care products.

you have herpes, in a safe, empowered manner. We give you hands-on,
