“The Snow White Metaphor workshop was inspiring and highly informative. A very helpful framework for complex case conceptualisation with supportive therapeutic interventions relevant to a combined group of child sexual assault counsellors. Naomi is a warm, engaging and highly skilled clinician who tailored her program wonderfully to suit our training needs.“
“I wanted to say a big thank you for the presentation. You are such a warm and engaging speaker that it was a delight to listen to. The feedback from the staff has been very positive, finding the information so useful. One staff member has suggested a “Part 2” at some stage.”
“Thank you for such an amazing training day. The team thoroughly enjoyed it. I had great feedback about the content and relevance for our work! So, thank you!”
“The training was excellent and really well received by the team. We’d love to proceed with a full day training to continue to build on these skills late in the year.”
“Naomi is truly one of the best speakers I have come across. She makes the topic very understandable and relatable. The pace, content, slides and handouts have been extremely beneficial. The speaker’s positive aura, real life experiences shared and command on the topic is truly commendable.”
“This has been an inspirational training. The content and Naomi’s presentation was excellent. I really enjoyed your ‘humanity’ Naomi and the way you used examples from your practice, both successful and less successful ones! So many thanks.”
“This complex material was very well organised and presented with helpful, relevant and striking case examples. Sharing her personal experiences as a therapist was effective, adding warmth and a ‘real life’ context to the core content. The exercises were essential in terms of knowing what is going on in yourself as a therapist.”
“This was the BEST workshop I have to been to in a very long time. Naomi was engaging, extremely interesting and able to relate the concepts to real life. It was well worth the trip from Melbourne to Geelong to see her. I would love to see more workshops from Naomi.”
“Great depth of insight into the impact of trauma on the human psyche & how important it is to integrate all aspects of our self for deeper understanding & compassion for the human condition. Thank you, Naomi, for your insights. This was an enriching workshop.”
“I found Naomi’s “parts” perspective within the Snow White metaphor of complex trauma, and the information on the neurological aspects of treatment a most helpful framework. It assisted me to integrate my pre-workshop understandings of complex trauma and strengthens my understandings.”
“The workshop was well paced and organised. The Snow White metaphor wove together therapeutic work with the brain function in a clear and concise way. I felt validated in my work and challenged to be more collaborative, slow down and think more deeply about interactions between the parts.”
“On behalf of UNESCO’s OHS team, we extend our heartfelt thanks for the invaluable time and expertise you dedicated to developing and delivering the “Gatekeeper Training for Suicide Prevention”. Your ability to connect with our team on such a challenging topic is an amazing skill that shines through in your delivery.”
“Naomi has delivered several seminars to our team and clients, which are packed with thought provoking and up-to-date information and practical tips on trauma informed practice and how to identify and manage vicarious trauma when it arises. I highly recommend her training sessions – Naomi is a pleasure to work with.”
“Naomi provided extensive training and support to many of our employees over a 10-year period. Employees reported feeling empowered and more confident to deal appropriately with the emotional challenges they are presented with as part of their roles. We are grateful for Naomi’s collaborative working style and professional approach.”
“Naomi has been a huge help as we’ve established the Whistleblower Project at the Human Rights Law Centre, Australia’s first specialist legal service for whistleblowers. Naomi has helped us ensure our legal practice is trauma-informed, we are empowering our clients and supporting our staff. We are very grateful for her support.“
“Our staff have learnt so much from the sessions Naomi presented. Her relaxed, interactive and extremely insightful sessions taught us how to approach our legal work in a sensitive and trauma-informed way. Naomi cleverly drew from her extensive experience to share some very extremely relevant examples to deepen our understanding.”
“Naomi’s support has enabled us to reach 4000 UN personnel globally, more than any time in history. In addition to training, she developed materials; support for families dealing with pandemic stressors; psychosocial support for COVID patients; raising awareness of domestic violence risks; and stress management of a new normal. I want to thank Naomi for her efforts and dedication.”
“Last week’s conversation had a big impact. We saw a shift in how our leaders think about customers and understanding the human face and impact of these experiences. We are grateful that you were willing to partner with us and to help our leaders grow and understand these issues in a different way.”
