Due to COVID-19, Rachel is offering virtual workshops in place of the in-person workshops. View the information below and inquire for more information.
I believe in co-constructing, collaborating, and offering customized experiences that align with the needs of the community I’m serving. Because potential clients like to get a sense of the types of engagements I offer, here is a sampling of some of the most commonly requested workshops.
