Join us for a groundbreaking professional development weekend designed for counselors, social workers, educators, nurses, and other helping professionals who serve with heart and lead with humanity.

Experience 12 hours of engaging lecture and instruction from two doctoral-level educators whose work is redefining what ethical, equitable care looks — and sounds — like

Day One:

Led by a nationally recognized sociophonetician and university researcher, this session dives into how language, voice, and identity shape care and reinforce bias — especially in rural communities.

Day Two:

Featuring a clinical psychologist who’s taken social media by storm, known for her down-to-earth, thought-provoking approach that challenges therapists to deconstruct the clinical self and rebuild from authenticity, ethics, and empathy.

Together, these two days will expand your understanding of the ethics of language, the art of listening, and the heart of care in every community — even (and especially) where resources are scarce, and stories run deep.
