Professional Consultation & Training

Supporting the people and organizations that support others.

The Healing Place offers professional consultation, training, and educational services for schools, child-serving organizations, human service agencies, community organizations, and helping professionals. Services combine a clinical social work perspective with a background in leadership and human resource development to provide practical, evidence-informed education and support tailored to the needs of each organization.

Consultation and training can be customized based on your setting, population, and goals.

🏫 Schools & Child-Serving Organizations

Children's behavior often communicates more than what is visible on the surface. Consultation can help professionals better understand behavior within the context of development, relationships, emotional regulation, trauma, and the environments in which children live and learn.

Potential areas of consultation and training include:

  • Understanding challenging behavior

  • Emotional dysregulation and co-regulation

  • Trauma-informed approaches

  • Responding to big emotions and behavioral concerns

  • Connection, communication, and relationship building

  • Supporting children with ADHD and impulsivity

  • Developmentally appropriate expectations

  • Parent and caregiver engagement

  • Supporting staff who work with high-needs populations

Services may include individual consultation, team consultation, staff education, workshops, and customized trainings.

🌿 Organizations & Helping Professionals

Professionals working in mental health, human services, education, and other helping fields face unique interpersonal and organizational challenges. Consultation and training can support teams in strengthening communication, understanding human behavior, improving supportive practices, and creating healthier environments for both professionals and the people they serve.

Potential topics may include trauma-informed practices, professional boundaries, communication, burnout and sustainable helping, staff wellness, team functioning, and other topics developed around organizational needs.

🎓 Early-Career Therapist Consultation

Beginning a career as a therapist can involve a lot of questions that graduate school does not always prepare you to navigate. Individual consultation is available for new and developing therapists who want help organizing their professional goals and understanding possible next steps.

Consultation may include:

  • Career planning and professional goal setting

  • Understanding licensure pathways and where to find authoritative requirements

  • Identifying training and continuing education priorities

  • Exploring clinical interests and developing a professional niche

  • Thinking through career and employment options

  • Exploring future private-practice pathways

  • Organizing a longer-term professional development plan

The goal is not to tell you exactly what your career should look like, but to help you understand your options, identify reliable resources, and develop a realistic roadmap toward where you want to go.

📚 Customized Training & Workshops

Looking for education on a specific topic? Trainings and workshops can be developed around the needs of your school, agency, organization, or team.

Potential training topics include Beyond the Behavior, From Dysregulation to Regulation, Connection Before Correction, Trauma-Informed Doesn't Mean Permissive, and Burnout, Boundaries & Sustainable Helping.

Additional topics can be developed collaboratively based on the needs of your audience.
