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 concepts related to emotions.
Trauma-Informed Care
Trainings that emphasize emotions may bring up sensitive topics such as 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 for participants to share and process their emotions.
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 feedback. We can provide individualized support and insights that consider the specific needs 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.
We offer 3 types of workshops.
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
How do you differ from other market providers?
Many corporate training programs focus on communicating information about diversity, mental health and wellness. We take the fundamentals of psychological practice to help get at the root of problems that hold us and our teams back. We've found that the main barrier to change is not a lack of information, but rather tension and conflict that come along the way. Our approach is developmental, strengths-based and community-oriented.
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, all of our workshops can be done online via live Zoom webinars except for our Diversity Intensive which is designed as an in-person-only experience.
What are your fees?
We work with you to determine a competitive price that fits your company and your needs. We are glad to offer our trainings as a one-time experience or as part of a series of trainings, workshops and coaching sessions to help you reach your goals for your organization. Fill out our interest form and we can discuss your needs.
What are your areas of expertise?
We help you have the real conversations that lead to change. We excel at facilitating spaces where teams can address the conflict and tension that keep us stuck. We currently offer trainings in diversity and inclusion, emotional health, and stress. For a number of clients, we've drawn from each of these to craft a custom training experience to meet the needs of their teams.
Can you handle large groups?
We offer training options to accommodate most group sizes. We have worked with large corporations to train several thousand employees and also with teams of just a few leaders looking to sharpen their skills. We will work with you to determine a format and number of participants per session that fits your needs. A few of our trainings are formatted for smaller groups and will not be suitable for groups larger than 50.
