NEWSLETTER

Contact O W N E R / C O U N S E LO R / C O N S U LTA N T Bronwyn is the co-owner of Boost Counseling and Consulting along with Toni Moran.

During Bronwyn’s time in the mental health field she has built community partnerships, developed wellness curriculum, led trauma-informed care initiatives, and educated community members in the power of addressing trauma and promoting connection. Her passion for trauma-informed care came out of her

Area. Within each work environment, she observed -- and experienced -- the pervasive and destructive impact trauma had on both the staff and clients alike. Thus, Boost has become a true champion for trauma-informed care as they have witnessed the powerful and positive impact TIC has on: Turnover rates, job satisfaction, client and staff wellness, therapeutic gains for clients, and systemic sustainability for organizations who carry out the principles with their staff -- and the work they do. Boost’s approach encourages curiosity, stimulates growth, restores motivation, and promotes self-awareness.
