Trauma Informed Care 101
Trauma-informed care is a framework that can help support employees by building their knowledge about how to self-regulate, honor a client’s/service recipient’s experience, foster safe spaces for open/honest communication, and instill within them supportive and accessible knowledge to combat their own burnout. Having accessible knowledge about stress, trauma, and organizational resiliency supports employees in cultivating self-awareness, building their understanding of trauma and stress responses, and integrating new practices that are healthy and sustainable. Our trauma-informed care workshop and experience will share definitions for a common language, offer an overall understanding about how the traumatized/stressed brain works, explore what trauma-Informed care is, explain why employees/employers should care, and learn how to apply these new practices through case-study presentations and activities.
Healthy boundaries + Self-Care
How we relate to ourselves has immediate implications in the we work do and ways we interact with others. Boundaries are the expression of these intrapersonal and interpersonal interactions. So, these dynamic structures are bound to show up in the workplace. This training will leave you with an overall understanding of boundaries. We will help you uncover ways boundaries play into job/life satisfaction and self-care. And then show you how to develop strategies to improve communication, stimulate collaboration, unpack conflict, and enhance your mental and social wellness.
Identifying burnout + creating sustainable practices
In this workshop we define and explore the effects and impact of employee burn-out. We investigate how the brain is impacted by stress and the long-term impact stress can have on your emotional and mental wellness. We also illustrate indicators that you or your employees may be experiencing burnout and offer tactics to combat the effects. Additionally, we go into depth about the importance of self-care and community care—and what it means to promote it within your organization.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is a powerful tool for enhancing focus, reducing stress, and improving workplace satisfaction. This training introduces practical mindfulness techniques that employees can integrate into their daily routines to boost productivity, emotional resilience, and engagement. By cultivating presence and self-awareness, organizations can create a more balanced, innovative, and motivated work environment.
Effective & Respectful Communication
Effective communication is the foundation of a thriving workplace. This training explores strategies for fostering clear, respectful, and productive conversations that drive motivation, collaboration, and trust. Participants will learn to navigate difficult discussions, provide constructive feedback, and communicate with emotional intelligence, ultimately strengthening workplace relationships and improving overall well-being.
Vicarious trauma training
In this training, we define vicarious trauma, discuss the signs of experiencing vicarious trauma, and then offer strategies that encourage effectively managing a demanding work environment and promote employee wellness. We discuss how a system itself can be traumatizing to its staff. So we offer the space to air out toxic dynamics in the workplace and give you sustainable practices to support communication, collaboration, and client-delivery.
Emotional Intelligence
Emotional intelligence is how well we can manage our own emotions and the emotions of others. It is the ability to practice self-awareness by tuning into our own feelings and emotions. The key is to do this while also being aware of other people’s perspectives, emotions and feelings. When we notice where we are emotionally, we are able to notice it in others. In this session we will walk your staff through the practicing definitions within emotional awareness; help your staff understand their current relationship with their emotions, and learn how to deepen awareness about how they feel in order to anticipate and communicate their needs to others.
Crisis Management
Do your staff work with high-risk clients? Do they feel ill-prepared to deal or manage crises? This training will help break-down the impact of a crisis on the brain in order to better understand how to intervene and help things settle. We will offer specific strategies in working with people in crisis, maintaining personal safety and emotional regulation, and assessing for risk and safety.
Stress + The Brain Workshop
This is our bi-yearly workshop that we offer to anyone in the community for a discounted price. We sprinkle in information from: TIC 101 and Boundaries + Self-Care trainings. It is supportive to the individual, leadership working to develop healthier culture within an organization, or practitioners working support themselves or their clientele. Check out our shop to see when the next one is featured!
Conflict/Resolution
Human beings experience conflict on a daily basis. Overall, conflict is surrounded by negative assumptions, but we believe it can be used as a catalyst for learning and development. Exploring our own associations with conflict, identifying our own communication styles, and understanding how our learned cultural behaviors have benefited or prevented us in meeting our and others’ needs. We will guide participants in understanding their communication and conflict styles through interactive discussions and movement-based activities. Our hope is to invite deep and critical thought about how our identities inform and impact our communication style(s)/approach(es) to conflict. We will illustrate how no style is the right style; no strategy is the right strategy. We will model how to get our needs met, how to practice self-awareness in order to critically read situations, respond effectively, and learn how to ask the right questions in order to collaboratively problem solve.
