Mental Health & Trauma-Informed Training and Coaching for Libraries

Transforming Libraries & Empowering Library Staff

Does this sound familiar?

  • Are you tired of feeling ill-equipped to address the complex mental health needs of your patrons? 

  • Do you wish you had the tools to create a safe and supportive environment within your library? 

  • Are you tired of navigating the challenges of supporting patrons while juggling your own well-being

It doesn’t have to be this way. 

Imagine a world where libraries are not only a hub of knowledge but also a heaven of mental health support. 


Imagine a world where you and your staff are confidently equipped to navigate the challenges of mental health, fostering safe and thriving library communities for both patrons and library professionals.
