CONSULTATION AND TRAINING
At Prickly Pear, we are creating an alternative work environment that resembles values of healing and culturally centered care. We pause often, we self-reflect, we process team dynamics, we lean into difficult conversations, we align and re-align with our values personally and collectively. AND, we share this approach and work with other organizations because we know that one way to support our communities is to support the organizations that they are embedded within to shift to a culture that is healing and culturally affirming.
CONSULTATION AND TRAINING: ORGANIZATIONAL SUPPORT
Aligned with our organization values, in the past two years, Prickly Pear Therapy & Training has expanded to include training and consulting services for nonprofit organizations. Providing trauma-informed organizational support is integral to being able to provide a healing space for our community as our community members are often delivering these services at the same time they are interacting within organizations where they are not represented culturally. We help leaders to be able to learn how to embrace and practice an antiracist, trauma-informed approach to create culturally-responsive organizational structures, reduce and prevent burnout, and promote a strength-based environment for their teams to thrive.
TRAINING TOPICS
We provide training through the deliverance of services that help to represent all cultures and work to embrace and practice an antiracist, trauma-informed approach to create a culturally responsible organizational structure. We want to help equip every individual with the ability to support mental health as well as emotional, spiritual, and even physical health.
