What the workshop covers
A clinical brief your team can act on after the call.
Karen converts the Treelife therapy playbook into a format HR teams can carry into policy. The session is structured so the takeaways survive the calendar invite and survive the next engagement survey.
- Symptom literacy for managers — what midlife actually looks like at the desk, in calibration, in performance reviews.
- An adjustment-map template your team can adopt verbatim: return-to-work, leave framing, performance review language.
- A private intake channel for employees who need a counsellor, not a workshop — Karen supervises the handover.
- A short Q&A archive your team can read on their own time, written in Karen’s clinical register rather than corporate voice.
- A live 60–90 minute session, or a quarterly rhythm for organisations that want the conversation to stay open.
Pricing tiers
Three shapes for the same conversation.
The half-day is the most common booking. The full-day adds a manager-only Q&A and a 30-day reading list. Bespoke is for organisations that want a clinical pathway behind the talk.

A written scope with a clinician on the call before any invoice changes hands.

All pricing is indicative; the final figure is locked in the written scope after the scoping call. Karen signs every scope personally.
The clinical pathway
A private intake channel sits behind every workshop.
For organisations that want the talk backed by a real referral loop. Karen supervises the handover and writes a quarterly anonymised report so HR can see what the policy is actually doing three months after the workshop, not the day of.
