Our organization began working with Laura Thompson in 2023 to conduct virtual trainings for our global team members. Laura provided excellent training on very difficult topics such as working with students who report sexual assault or suicidality. She delivered these trainings with great empathy, understanding, and care, and our team members feel more confident now when faced with these concerns. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Laura and The Mental Health Team in the future.

We’ve worked with Laura and The Mental Health Team to support our participants and programs across the U.S. Laura and her team are accessible when we need them and are competent in navigating a variety of mental and behavioral health needs. The team’s guidance supports our organization in drafting policies and procedures, developing staff training curriculum, advising in pre-program health evaluations, and mental health and incident assessment and support. We’re grateful for our partnership with Dr. Laura, her guidance is an essential part of our programs!
