Supporting Thriving Humans

For the People Who Walk Alongside Others

Learning and training for midwives, therapists, birth workers, educators, and anyone who supports others through the relationships of a lifetime.

Whatever you do, the heart of it is relationship. The ones people are trying to build, the challenged ones, and the ones they’re grieving. You already sense that what someone brings into your room began long before they arrived, and it reaches far beyond the moment in front of you.

This is a way of seeing that spans the whole arc: how relationships form, how we nurture them, how we repair them, and what to do when repair isn’t possible.

This is paradigm shifting work and it is the work that is deeply needed to change the way we interact with one another in our homes and in the greater world.

It's all about the relationship

It begins with a simple idea, that all behavior is communication, and builds from there into understanding our own beginnings, the feelings and boundaries that shape connection, and the deep work of repair. Understanding the family system this way changes how you see the people you work with and the people you live with, whether you work with individuals or whole families. Or whether you work on your own family.

It’s not a technique to apply. It’s a system, a foundation that informs everything you already do.

This work asks something of you first. You can’t take someone somewhere you haven’t been, so the path here starts with your own experience, your own beginnings, your own relationships, and grows from there. That’s why it’s relational, and why it takes real time.

Two year training

For those called further, there’s a two-year training in supporting relationships across the lifespan, my life’s work, structured.

Over two years, in a cohort that grows together, we move through the foundations of healthy relationship: the guiding principles that begin with behavior as communication, our own earliest imprints, the deeper work of feelings and boundaries, and repair, including what to do when a relationship can’t be repaired. It’s relational by design, live small-group and large-group work, self-paced material to support you, and the shape of our time designed together around what your cohort needs. Trainees are also welcome in the live online parenting gatherings, to witness this work with families in real time.

It has always welcomed anyone genuinely drawn to this, not only those with particular credentials. The next cohort is being formed now.

If you feel the pull, write to me and tell me a little about yourself and what you’re looking for. I read every one.

These offerings are priced in US dollars, and I know that doesn’t translate the same everywhere. If you practice where the cost is out of proportion to what this work pays there, write to me and we’ll find a number that’s right. There are also a small number of supported places for practitioners whose access to training like this has been shaped by barriers that were never theirs to begin with.
