ELEVATE YOUR BUSINESS
The Counseling Col:lab offers organizational wellness programs for non-profits, social services, and healthcare agencies who seek to develop a culture that takes care of employees as well as it takes care of the clients.
Below are some of the trainings that we offer to help improve your business.
Leadership Coaching
Do you feel like your leadership talents are not enough? Being a leader means being under a lot of pressure to perform. With leadership coaching, you learn to assess your own leadership skills to find your strengths and your weaknesses.
You’ll also learn techniques to amplify your strengths and bypass your weaknesses in order to motivate and inspire your team for greatness.
Leadership Coaching is available in weekly one-on-one coaching sessions, as a seminar for groups, or for retreats.
Organizational Development
Would your organization benefit from optimization? Efficiency is difficult to achieve for a business, but it helps save money and keeps employees happy. By optimizing performance, you’re able to be productive and simultaneously give people the time off they need to unwind. It’s a win-win situation. Take advantage of this opportunity to assess the strengths and weaknesses of your business.
From writing those pesky policies and procedures, to grants, to staff improvement plans; Amanda can help you with all of these important tasks that often get left to the side by busy managers and leaders.
Anti-Racism Practice Training
Becoming racially conscious in a multiracial society is our responsibility, and our duty as business owners and leaders to be aware of the effects at every level of our organization.
By educating yourself and your staff on issues of racism and getting acquainted with their own relationship with privilege, you are better able to inspire employees and clients from all racial backgrounds and advocate for them as an ally.
Culturally Responsive Trauma-Informed Care Training
Culture is another facet of people’s background that must be respected and understood if you are looking to achieve high productivity and cohesiveness within your organization.
Trauma induced by cultural issues (like microaggressions) can affect people’s mental health in measurable ways. Educate your staff on matters of cultural and implicit bias.
ACEs Training
Nearly two-thirds of all adults have experienced at least one type of Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE).
The pains of childhood follow us long into adulthood, long into our work lives, and long after we’ve learned to shoulder the weight of our employer’s expectations.
How can you be sure that your team is valuing their health the way they should and recognize the challenges that others faced as they grew up with childhoods vastly different from their own?
General Trauma-Informed Care
Talking about trauma is not always an easy task. Our childhood experiences often reside in the recesses of our minds, and the last place we want to talk about them is at work. However, trauma is everywhere, and if we continue to ignore its presence, we're only contributing to the problem.
Knowing how to recognize trauma in yourself and others is a valuable skill necessary to avoid burnout whether you work in healthcare or otherwise.
As you become a trauma-informed workplace, enlisting the help of a mental health professional can help you gain insights into your employees' performance, mental health, and well-being.
Mandated Reporter Training
Anyone who spends time with children as part of their job is a primary candidate for mandatory reporting training, although the responsibilities of mandated reporting extend beyond caring for the welfare of children. Dependent disabled persons, and elderly folks are also beneficiaries of mandated reporting laws.
Many states or counties recommend taking a mandated reporter training every year to stay in the loop about best practices for protecting children. If you think you qualify for any of the above, sign up for the webinar today.
Getting Creative With Self-Care
We all need support. Even when we pride ourselves on being independent and resilient, there comes a time when our natural defenses against unhealthy behaviors cannot protect us. At that moment, we need to instead act with intention to care for ourselves.
Practicing self-care can help us weather pandemic fatigue and any changes or challenges that arise as we transition back to “normal”.
In a difficult moment like the one we’re in now, self-care can be a lifesaver.
