At Human Services, we believe that every individual is the expert on their own lives. We offer powerful, research-backed tools and guidance, and you choose the tools and guidance that work best for you.
For professionals looking for guidance and growth in an organizational context, we offer the Mindful Leadership Model and Assessments; for individuals interested in guidance and growth in their personal lives, we offer the Mindful Growth Model and Assessments.

Organizational Consulting Services
Our research shows that human wellbeing and organizational health are interdependent – each supports and depends upon the other. So if you want to reduce burnout and turnover, improve organizational culture, and increase client satisfaction, it’s important to look at individual behavior, relationship management, and how the organizational system functions as a whole.
Our Mindful Leadership|Mindful Growth Model and Assessment does just that, providing holistic guidance for organizations interested in improving employee wellbeing and performance, as well as the overall health of the organization. The Assessment series is based on our original, ground-breaking research that looks at leadership on multiple levels – individual, relational, and systemic.
We offer two assessment options, including the Mindful Leadership|Mindful Growth Assessment series and HS Talking Circles.
Once the assessment process is complete, we offer a report on your organization’s strengths and challenges, as well as pathways to positive change through HS Workshops, facilitated work groups, and individual/group coaching. See the HS Service Areas for in-depth information about the kinds of services we offer.

Participant Testimonials
“The workshop was a great value. [I appreciated Dr. Peter’s] use of examples with her own feelings to help better illustrate the content. Having the Emotion Wheels at my side helped me better articulate my own emotions. I left with a lot of knowledge and excited to learn more!” —Kim Herlehy, Health Coach
“Loved the workshop! It was so refreshing to see emotions being discussed and implemented in the workspace and everyday life. [The most interesting part of the workshop for me was] listening to other people and their experience with emotions. Also, learning how to utilize the Emotions Wheel for younger children.” —Victoria Shae Wright, Teacher

Can you say “no” to your supervisor? How do you decide what’s most important to work on and what you can save for another day? Do you spend so much time managing your employees that you don’t have enough time for your own work? How do you keep from getting burned out? In this workshop, participants will learn about self-leadership and self-management, and when and how to do both to prevent burnout and be more successful at work. Participants will learn about the concept of emotional competence: identifying their emotions and needs to inform effective decision-making and behavior at work. We will also learn about how to identify core needs and values as the foundation for developing healthy boundaries and priorities at work.
Objectives:
After this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Differentiate between the concepts of self-leadership and self-management.
- Identify professional situations that call for self-leadership and self-management.
- Explain why setting boundaries at work is essential to burnout prevention, as well as personal and organizational success.
- Describe an effective process for setting and maintaining effective priorities and boundaries in their professional life.
With the increased diversity of age, race, culture, and experience in organizations comes increased communication challenges. When you add the proliferation of modes of communication – email, text, phone, Zoom, Teams, Slack and more – you get an exponential increase in communication challenges. In this workshop, we will talk about why communication can be especially difficult in organizations today, and how to reduce conflict by clarifying communication processes. Participants will be introduced to Dr. Peters’ Communication Policy Worksheet, a powerful tool that helps organizations “get on the same page” with communication process and goals and reduce unnecessary conflict.
Objectives
After this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Explain how diversity of experience, values, and communication methods contribute to communication challenges.
- Assess their own experience and values around communication and how they may differ from others’ experience and values.
- Use the Communication Policy Worksheet to guide a group toward a common understanding of communication process and goals.
