Speaking Engagements & Trainings

Professional Trainings

When you train as a therapist, you have an arsenal of techniques to alleviate mental illness and human suffering. But, this training can still leave you woefully unprepared to confront the practical. Clients who feel underwater with housework, who miss appointments due to time mismanagement, who bicker with their families over chores — these issues deserve care and attention. I am available to conduct training for other therapists on how to work with clients with chronic struggles around organization and housework. In these trainings we will cover:

  • Techniques to help clients manage house work, time management, and other practical life skills

  • Practical ways to manage motivation and overwhelm

  • Helping couples navigate differences in housework expectations

  • Self-reflection on internalized attitudes about domestic labor

Youth/Family Training Events

If your organization is interested in hosting an event to help families or youth gain life skills, reach out to me about tailoring your training. These events can include:

  • Helping families navigate differences in cleaning/organizing styles

  • Teaching life skills to new adults as they prepare to live alone

  • Defining functional household standards for couples, families, and roommates

These events are priced based on the group size, travel, and your organization’s needs. Contact us at contactnestingyourlife@gmail.com to inquire.
