You're a mental health professional who cares deeply.​

You truly care about the work you do, but let's be real - the thought of taking CE trainings can feel dreadful and exhausting. 

Plus, finding a CE training that doesn’t require you sacrificing client time, rearranging schedules, or feeling disconnected because it is virtual, can feel like yet another thing to get through.


But what if CE training could be different?

Imagine a CE training that actually…

☑️   makes you laugh while you learn
☑️  empowers you to feel more equipped and confident 
☑️  rekindles your enthusiasm for your work 
☑️  leaves you inspired, not drained
☑️  builds upon your community of support


Because let’s face it — you’ve been there:
  • You’ve sacrificed client hours or personal time to squeeze in a training that felt… meh.​

  • You’ve sat through presentations where your brain screamed “No more input!” (Yes, like Johnny 5 from Short Circuit. I say it all the time at home when I’m asked what’s for dinner 😅)
​
  • You’ve avoided asking questions because others in the room seemed to know more than you.
​
  • You’ve walked out of a training unsure how you can integrate it into your specific work setting. ​


Well, my trainings are determined to change that.
I don't want you feeling any of that in my trainings.

​
So, what makes my trainings different?


🧩 Small, interactive, and in-person

These gatherings are not lectures; they are warm, collaborative discussions—akin to a peer consultation group with a meaningful focus. 

You’ll walk away having asked questions, heard different perspectives, and practiced being a little vulnerable too (just like we ask our clients to do).


🧸 Rooted in Play, Attachment, and Cultural Humility

Yes, many of my workshops are focused on play therapy—but they’re not just for child therapists.

If you work with adults, parents, or even other professionals, what you’ll learn here will enhance your practice in practical, empowering ways.

Because play isn’t just for kids—it’s a regulation strategy, a rapport-builder, a human need.


🌍 Truly inclusive and culturally grounded

As a Latina clinician, I know what it’s like to sit through a workshop and wonder if what I'm learning even fits the people I serve.

That’s why every training I offer includes real, honest discussion about how to adapt what you're learning to different communities, backgrounds, and lived experiences.


🤝 Support Beyond the Slide Deck

Have a “how would this work in my setting?” question? Ask it.

Want to bounce ideas around after the training ends? I leave time after the training for that, too.

Because my trainings are about growing your skill set—not overwhelming you with jargon then leaving you overwhelmed.


Which begs the next question, are my trainings right for you? 

My trainings are not for you if: 
  • You just want to check off a CE requirement without participating.
  • You’re not open to learning through reflection, discussion, or play.

​My trainings are for you if: 

👍🏽 You want to sharpen your clinical skills and feel more effective with clients.

👍🏽 You have a deep curiosity to learn from your peers, not just a presenter.

👍🏽You’re passionate about ethically serving diverse, complex populations.

👍🏽You want to reconnect with your why and feel inspired about your work again.

👍🏽You’re ready to grow—not just as a clinician, but as a human being.

👍🏽You want to feel less alone in this work, especially if you’re in solo or remote practice.

👍🏽You want to take a step toward career growth—supervision, leadership, teaching, or niche specialization.
​
👍🏽You want to be seen as competent, current, and credible in your field.

Are you ready to turn continuing education into a meaningful experience?
