Training
I love witnessing the moment a light turns on in someone's head and they begin to reframe an issue that they’ve thought about for years. I strive to create such moments through guided experiential exercises and discussion-based training where participants build knowledge as well as empathy.
I offer training tailored to your organization's culture and needs. After an initial consultation where we identify your organization's goals, I create a customized training for your group. If you’re interested in talking about a personalized training or scheduling one of the trainings below, get in touch!
