Training & Professional Development
Better understanding changes how we respond.
River Valley Therapy Co. provides training and professional development designed to translate mental health research, clinical knowledge, and behavioral science into practical ways of supporting people.
Our training and development work is built for professionals, schools, organizations, and communities that want to better understand the people they serve and strengthen the systems around them.
Where knowledge meets practice.
Mental health isn't limited to the therapy room. It shows up in classrooms, workplaces, healthcare settings, families, organizations, and communities.
Our training bridges the gap between what we know and what we do.
Our approach emphasizes practical application, thoughtful discussion, and a deeper understanding of human behavior within the context in which it occurs.

Built Around Your People
Not every organization needs the same training.
In addition to our developing training offerings, RVTC works with organizations to identify their needs and develop learning experiences relevant to the people, challenges, and systems involved.
Trainings may range from focused presentations and workshops to longer-form professional development and consultation.
We’re Building Something Here.
This is the newest extension of our work.
Our library of trainings, workshops, and professional development opportunities is currently growing. As it develops, this page will become home to upcoming trainings, established programs, resources, and opportunities to learn with us.
In the meantime, if your school, organization, or team has a training need, we’d like to hear about it.
