Learning opportunities to creatively support unique clients!
Are you feeling lost or stuck when it comes to supporting your alternative, norm-rejecting, and unique clients? Their counterculture references, eccentric interests, personal style, self-expression, hobbies, and processing needs often leave you struggling to fully connect and understand them. You may have difficulty finding training that provides the right type of knowledge.
Some of your clients may be queer, trans, or autistic. Although you’re an ally or perhaps newly figuring those identities out for yourself, you crave insight from mentors with lived experience and clinical knowledge. You’re ready to deepen your understanding and transform your work.
You’re at the right place! Start learning now.
Your clients are different.
Cryptids are creatures that spark folklore, tales, and legends. They are mysterious, different, and often are seeking peace. They strive to meet their needs; their stories involve the public misunderstanding them. You may have heard of Nessie (of Loch Ness), Bigfoot (Sasquatch), Mothman, or even the elusive Jackalope.
Like Cryptids, your clients are misunderstood. They are often overlooked and underestimated. They get blamed and ostracized. Many speculate about them but few truly know them. These clients are individuals who don’t fit the mold - and they don’t really want to!
At Curious Cryptid Learning, you’ve found a home for growth, vulnerability, and wisdom.
Soon, you’ll be understanding your clients on an entirely new level. You’ll feel recharged and ready to offer new techniques and perspectives!
