Facing the Friction: Building Psychological Safety
For teams working through misalignment, tension, or lower safety
Normalize healthy conflict and navigate discomfort with grounded techniques that address reactivity, power patterns, and unspoken needs.

Objectives & Outcomes:

Our Approach:
- Relational diagnostics to understand communication under stress
- Combine behavioral science and trauma-informed framing to help teams see and shift stuck dynamics
- Offer Tools & Techniques to address challenges without shaming or pathologizing providing the foundations to manage discomfort without avoidance or shutting down
