Why train with a therapist?
Change happens when we address underlying emotions. As therapists, we're uniquely equipped to guide your team through that journey. We bring:
Professional Expertise
Emotions are complex. We have therapeutic knowledge and real-life experience to help us teach tense concepts.
Trauma-Informed Care
Trainings that navigate difficult topics may bring up past traumas, conflicts, or triggers. We create safe spaces and manage such discussions with sensitivity and ethical concern.
Psychological Safety
As we explore more deeply together, we create a safe and supportive environment to be a participant with facilitators equipped to guide people into authentic and engaged interaction.
Interactive Facilitation
As trained therapeutic facilitators, we lead interactive activities, group discussions, and role-plays to foster deeper exploration and experiential learning.
Individualized Guidance
Growth often requires personalized guidance and feedback. We can provide individualized support and insights that consider the specific challenges and strengths of each participant.
Nuanced Skills
Emotions-focused growth involves nuanced skills such as self-awareness and empathy. As therapists, we help participants understand these skills and learn how to apply them in real life.
What participants are saying...
My gender and culture both are in the minority here, but the openness to discuss and have your team articulate the problems using a solution focused lens - which is practical and feasible for us all - has been very helpful. I left the session very inspired and motivated, but more hopeful for the possibility of change.
Thank you for providing the space for the Leadership Team to connect, reflect and take-on additional resources as we continue to lead on this curvey uncharted path. If we don't take care of ourselves we are not offering our full selves personally or professionally.
The educational component of this training gave our people the tools to counteract burnout and compassion fatigue, took away the stigma around it, and left our team with a sense of hope. People felt comfortable being themselves, discussing questions out loud, and feeling understood.
FAQ
Why choose Artesian Collaborative?
We stand apart for our foundation in emotional, mental, and relational health. Every program is led by master's or doctoral-level therapists who bring deep clinical expertise to group facilitation and organizational training.
Our approach is built on three core values: strengths-based (recognizing that everyone has something to contribute), developmental (meeting people without judgment and believing in their capacity to grow), and community-oriented (centering growth that benefits the whole).
​
Our trainings go beyond surface-level learning to help teams build psychological flexibility, navigate tension, and engage in honest, productive dialogue. Through structured content, mindfulness, vulnerability, and relational skills, we create experiences that drive meaningful culture change and strengthen connections across teams and organizations.
​
Do you offer e-learning solutions?
We focus on creating live, interactive training experiences that are contextualized to the unique needs of our organization. This allows participants to engage with and respond in the moment, connecting what they’re learning with how they live day to day in their particular work environment. While we do not currently offer self-paced online courses, nearly all of our workshops can be done online via live Zoom webinars.
​
What are your fees?
We offer flexible pricing based on your organization’s goals, group size, and training format. Whether you’re looking for a one-time workshop or a series of trainings and coaching sessions, we’ll work with you to create a plan that fits your needs and budget.

What are your areas of expertise?
We help teams have the real conversations that spark meaningful growth and lasting change. As master’s- and doctorate-level mental health professionals trained in group facilitation and leadership development, we create safe, productive spaces for teams to address conflict, tension, and the patterns that hold them back.
Our workplace trainings draw on expertise in mental health, stress and resilience, diversity, inclusion, and belonging, and intentional, relational leadership. We often blend these focus areas to design custom workshops tailored to each team’s unique goals and challenges.
​
Can you handle large groups?
Yes! We offer flexible training options to accommodate groups of many sizes. Our team has experience delivering corporate training programs for large organizations as well as focused workshops for small teams looking to strengthen their skills.

We’ll work with you to design a custom training format and determine the right group size and structure to fit your goals.
