Training and Consultation

Our trainers and psychotherapists are ready to collaborate with you to ensure our trainings and consultative services meet the unique needs of your practice, group, or agency.

Consultation and Training

In today’s fast-paced workplace environments driven by deadlines, productivity, and funding limitations, organizations face ongoing challenges in mitigating the effects of burnout while also investing in the knowledge and skill development of their employees. At Live Oak, our values guide the support we can provide to nonprofits, social service agencies, and companies across industries. We work with your team to identify opportunities for training and development in a variety of competency areas including LGBTQ affirmative practice, intersectional practice, and trauma-informed services. Whether your team needs an introduction to LGBTQ cultural competency, or more advanced consultation on developing trauma-informed programs, our  trainers and psychotherapists are ready to collaborate with you to ensure our trainings and consultative services meet the unique needs of your practice, group, or agency.
