Throughout my career, I have developed a passion for supporting professionals. The same spark that initially lead me to pursue a career as a mental health counselor, becomes a roaring bonfire when I'm able to support, advocate for, and train others. That passion ultimately led me to pursue my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision. Since then I have overseen staff development initiatives for behavioral health employees in healthcare, taught as an adjunct professor in counseling programs for local universities, and provided training development and implementation for organizations locally and nationally.
It turns out, a lot of the basic skills and foundational knowledge that Mental Health Counselors carry with us every day can benefit teams from many different industries and backgrounds. Some of these basic counseling skills include active listening, reflection, identifying themes in conversation, goal identification, conflict resolution, and de-escalation. Providing your team with these concrete, accessible skills allows them to communicate more effectively with your customers and increase retention of crucial business relationships.
Need your staff to understand some of the common conflicts in relationships and how to facilitate a healthy disagreement? Feel your staff would benefit from more specific knowledge about how to interact with a certain population or age group? Want your staff to feel confident in identifying and managing challenges and become more aware of when they need to bring in additional help? A customized training might be exactly what you're looking for.
Does your staff already have the foundational knowledge necessary to do the job at hand, but are part of a team that is struggling to work together? A workshop might be just what you need to improve communication, identify the strengths within each of your team members, and work through conflicts that are holding you back from meeting your goals.
All of these programs are developed through 1-on-1 consultation between myself and your team. They are customized to your goals and objectives, focusing on relevant information, and built into the most appropriate format to deliver the biggest impact possible.
