Training

I offer customized trainings for everyone – from frontline workers to executive teams and Boards.

Trainings go beyond building awareness to changing behaviours.

To foster learning and growth, time is invested in creating safe spaces so that participants can fully engage in activities and group discussions.

My Approach

My training approach combines neuroscience, somatic practices, and problem-solving. It’s trauma-informed and survivor-centred. I apply a feminist, intersectional lens and my conflict resolution experience.

Working with your team, I will customize trainings to ensure the content is relevant and meaningful for participants.

Added Benefit

One thing my clients appreciate about my trainings is that I can relate to their circumstances in a way trainers without a background in humanitarian aid and international development can’t.

I understand the commitment to the work, the challenges and what makes it rewarding. I also understand the particular stresses that impact workplace relationships between managers, staff and colleagues.
