Professional Consultation

Consultation can be a great way to learn, collaborate, clarify…

your goals and needs, and gain crucial knowledge to move forward in ways that are meaningful and supportive to you. Sometimes, you just need help making sense of things, finding the resources you need, and cracking a code it seems only “insiders” know. I work with fellow therapists, healthcare providers, and members of the general public to advance their goals, make sense of complicated contexts, and build knowledge and skills that help make empowered choices.

Supporting you with clear boundaries and consistent roles!

Therapy and consulting are two very different services – with different roles, boundaries, and expectations. Part of my commitment to you is the safety and support that comes with consistency. My ethical commitment to those I serve means that I do not see past or present therapy clients for consultation, and the reverse is true as well. That said, if you find that you need additional support that’s outside of the work we’ve embarked on together, I’d be happy to offer supportive referrals.

Strategy & Support for Changemakers

Professional Consulting Services Scottsdale AZ

Advocacy, standing up, and making the world a better place—it’s just in your bones. Sometimes, though, it can be hard to find balance, not burn out, and be sure your efforts are effective. It can be especially hard when you’re a changemaker in a sea of bystanders and the “fix” others propose is to quit trying and check your passion at the door, but that’s not a good option!!

Consultation can help you get clear on values and goals, find like-minded community, develop ways to manage obstacles, and assess your methods and venues in which you’re working for change. We will amplify your voice and vision through strategic planning, targeted research, carefully crafted writing, and creative problem-solving. We’ll create or improve upon your self-care so you can go the distance without experiencing burnout or having family, work, and other important pieces of your life fall by the wayside.

Healthcare Empowerment & Self-Advocacy Skills

Healthcare in today’s society, including mental health care, is hard to traverse. What happens when we need the support, treatment, and access that only come with professional healthcare services? But past negative experiences, stigmatized or overwhelming health conditions, and sheer confusion over navigating the system stands in the way of self-care, healing, and wellness. Consultation services can’t magically erase the obstacles many of us face, but it can help a ton!

 

  • Build self-advocacy skills.
  • Learn strategies to keep calm and confident in daunting situations.
  • Develop a system to manage multiple, complex or labor-intensive conditions.
  • Learn how to find and understand the various healthcare professions’ ethics, culture and expectations.
  • Find the information you need to make an informed choice about how and whether to report concerns within or outside of organizations, and best prepare for what that process may look like.
  • And especially close to my heart, for those of you who’ve been hurt by past therapy experiences: learn about the hallmarks of safe and effective therapy, understand professional ethics, and build the confidence to look for and choose a new therapist and try again.
