Building Communities: Trauma-Responsive Care & Systemic Impact Awareness;
Mental Health First Aid for Those Working with Racialized Youth (2-Day Training)
-
This training is a trauma-responsive, body-first approach to Mental Health First Aid, designed for organizations working with Indigenous, African, Caribbean, and Black-identifying youth in crisis. Rather than relying solely on cognitive frameworks, we emphasize embodied learning—understanding trauma by exploring how it lives and shows up in the body.
Our training bridges theory and practice by integrating crisis intervention, preventative care, and systemic impact awareness. We custom-build each training to fit the unique needs of your organization or community, in consultation with your leadership or frontline team.

Trauma Consulting Services & Embodied Coaching
Individual: 50 mins $90/hour
Groups/Organizational Teams: $300/per hour/ per group size max 6. additional charge for a larger group
Working towards de-framing some cognitively led presentations; of how we might have been conditioned through perhaps a more colonial lens as colonization may tend to reach into the very psychosomatic structure of those colonized. If we are embodying the material we may have to embody this notion too - providing more time for folks to rest, digest, and process the material individually or in groups. This offering is to those interested in this invitation as we work towards embodying collective change, systemically.
Clinical Supervision
RATES:
Individual: $150
Group: $85
Now offering clinical supervision services tailored for members of the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario and the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers.
The main goals of this supervision will be as follows:
Case Presentation and Safe, Effective Use of Self
Deconstructing power dynamics and evolving the role of therapists, clinicians and leadership teams, through safe and effective use of self. Working with stigmatization and creating environments that do not mirror trauma in our communities, exploring historical trauma and systemic impact on our bodies.
Integrating this into our practice delivery, ensuring communication and advocacy that works towards systemic change as we learn how to observe and hold spaces from a trauma responsive lens within the communities we serve.
Educating therapists/clinicians with tools and decision-making skills based on our trauma responsive model to recognize the level of risk and apply the most appropriate techniques and interventions.
