Who You'll Serve
As a Certified Caregiving Consultant, your clients may be:
Family caregivers who hire you directly for consulting and coaching
Family caregivers who are your colleagues in workplace support groups or Employee Resource Groups
Family caregivers who use your financial planning, legal, or case management services
Family caregivers served through non-profits, social service agencies, or faith communities
With our compassionate expertise, you take care of your own caregiving experience so you can let go of your story and fully engage with your clients' stories. Because you learn how to be present with a client, you'll feel energized rather than burnt out in your work.
