Our Mission
We empower clinicians, social workers, parents, and caregivers with the knowledge and resources to support healing and healthy development in children. Through continuing education, professional mentorship, and expert led parenting support, we offer an inclusive platform for those working with children in therapy rooms, classrooms, and homes.
Empowering Caregivers. Equipping Clinicians. Transforming Lives.
At Winborn Training & Consultation, we believe knowledge fuels healing, resilience, and stronger relationships. Our platform bridges clinical expertise and everyday caregiving by offering expert consultations, quality training, and accessible resources for both mental health professionals and caregivers.
Whether you’re a clinician seeking advanced skills or a parent looking for support, we provide the tools, education, and guidance to make a lasting impact on children’s emotional wellbeing.
Who We Are
Winborn Training & Consultation grew from the work of Winborn Wellness & Counseling, founded in 2009 in rural southwestern New Mexico. Our approach is shaped by decades of direct clinical practice with children, families, and adults, as well as experience supporting therapists, supervisors, agencies, schools, and early-childhood programs.
As rural providers, we understand how difficult it can be to access specialized training, and the meaningful consultation clinicians and helpers need to grow. At times, geography, cost, time, and limited local resources required us to travel long distances or build the support we could not easily find.
We are creating this space to make high quality training and consultation more accessible, especially for professionals, caregivers, and organizations serving rural and underserved communities.
We believe people naturally move toward healing and growth when they are offered safety, relationship, and the freedom to express their experiences authentically. We bring that same philosophy to every training and consultation. We are dedicated to creating spaces where people can slow down, think deeply, develop practical skills, and grow with confidence.
A Note From Our Founder
For over 25 years, I have dedicated my life to helping others, supporting children, families, and fellow clinicians in their journeys toward healing and resilience. But in recent years, I have witnessed a troubling shift: a decline in community helpers, fewer protective factors for children, and widening gaps in access to knowledge and support.
As someone who has worked in rural communities, I understand firsthand the challenges of accessing quality training and resources. My own path has been one of constant learning, seeking out the best in developmental science, trauma-informed care, and therapeutic techniques—but I also recognize the privilege I have had in being able to do so. The reality is that most parents and caregivers will never have the opportunity to sit in a room with experts in child development, attachment, or neuroscience. And that is deeply disheartening.
That’s why I created this space.
My goal is simple: to move knowledge from the few to the many—to take the wisdom that has too often been confined to therapy offices, academic journals, and professional conferences and make it accessible to the parents, caregivers, and helpers who need it most. But I believe this must be done with respect and depth.
This platform is an invitation—to learn, to grow, and to be part of a community that values connection, understanding, and resilience. Whether you are a clinician looking to deepen your expertise or a parent seeking guidance, you belong here. Because when we learn today, we empower tomorrow.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
