OTHER PROGRAMS
Shame in the Workplace
Shame is ever-present in the workplace. What is it? Where does it show up? How can we learn to recognize it and catch ourselves as we enter a Shame Spiral? How do we stay in a place of integrity amidst the shame storms? And how do we, as leaders, managers, and supervisors create a shame-resilient culture, one where we give ourselves and others permission to make mistakes, circle back, and try again? Shame-Resiliency workplaces are ones where we are encouraged to be our best selves, and be brave with our work and our life.
My decade of professional and corporate background in management and MBA coursework, combined with my therapeutic knowledge and skills are foundational in laying the groundwork to understand the culture of shame and build a shame-resilient culture.
Reframing Marriage and Partnerships
I am trained in the Gottman Method for Couples Therapy from The Gottman Institute. The Reframing Marriage workshop helps you to see where you and your partner fall into the typical communication patterns that create conflict and pain in relationships. Participants learn about The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Criticism, Defensiveness, Contempt and Stonewalling, and their Antidotes. I teach couples to ‘turn in’ to their marriage, appreciate their partners, and make more ‘bids for connection’ while putting deposits in each other’s Emotional Bank Accounts. Couples are required to attend together.
Parenting Without Shame
How do we live into The Wholehearted Parenting Manifesto (shown below)? How do we recognize when shame shows up in our parenting? Instead of spiraling into a shame storm, shaming our kids, or making an empathic ‘miss’, this program teaches us about empathy, validation, boundaries, integrity and self-compassion for both ourselves, our partners, and our children. Parenting Without Shame explains the 1,2,3’s of shame and helps us lean into the practices of Shame-Resilient parenting.
