Training

Programming on mental health can teach critical skills needed to improve individual well-being and group dynamics in the workplace and beyond.

I work with teams, universities, community organizations, and corporations to lead workshops and lectures specific to their needs for professional development programs, conferences, and retreats. I use a skills-based approach, shifting the objective from providing plain awareness to instead teaching actionable, evidence-based skills for improving emotional and mental well-being. My workshops are highly interactive, with space for reflection, learning activities to improve retention, and simplified frameworks for in-depth understanding of complex topics. 

Topics include:

  • Mental health and stigma: Reducing the stigma of talking about mental health at work

  • Stress management: Separating good stress from distress, and managing it effectively

  • Mindfulness and emotional processing: Learning an emotional vocabulary to better regulate intense feelings

  • Resilience and overcoming setbacks: Employing resilience skills to cope with workplace stressors

  • Imposter syndrome: Conquering internalized self-doubt and taking ownership of expertise

  • Depersonalizing and reacting to feedback: Taking the sting out of negative feedback

  • Cognitive tools for managing anxiety: Developing tactical techniques for everyday anxieties

Counseling

Many companies and organizations offer on-site counseling as an investment in their employees' mental health, recognizing that it improves access to care and workplace wellbeing. These sessions are paid for by the organization at no cost to the employee. Unlike coaching, counseling services are offered through licensed mental health professionals and are kept strictly confidential. 

Leveraging my training in therapy and my experience in high-intensity workplaces, I contract with organizations to offer a select number of office hours for exclusive use by their employees for individual counseling or process groups. For companies in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, I am available to be physically on-site; for all others in Texas, I offer counseling remotely.
