Workplace Wellness
Investing in Your Team's Mental Health
At Co & Associates, we believe that mental health support shouldn't be limited to the therapy room. Organizations that invest in the emotional well-being of their teams see measurable improvements in productivity, retention, communication, and overall workplace culture.
Our corporate training programs — including Lunch & Learn sessions, half-day workshops, and critical incident debriefings — are designed to meet your team where they are. Whether you're looking to proactively build resilience or respond to a specific event, we bring clinical expertise and real-world experience directly to your workplace.
Each session is developed collaboratively with your organization's leadership to ensure relevance, sensitivity, and impact. Garion Sparks-Austin, alongside other members of the Co & Associates team, delivers these trainings with the same warmth, directness, and depth that defines our clinical practice.

Founder & Director, Co & Associates
With over 19 years of experience in the social services and mental health sector, Garion has supported individuals, families, and organizations through a broad spectrum of challenges — from trauma and crisis response to workplace dynamics and team resilience.
As the Founder and Director of Co & Associates, Garion brings a unique combination of clinical depth and real-world practicality to every training session. Her approach is casual, conversational, and collaborative — creating space for honest dialogue about topics that are often avoided in professional settings.
Garion's corporate training work is informed by her extensive background in trauma-informed care, crisis intervention, neurodiversity, high-conflict dynamics, and emotional intelligence. She has worked with front-line workers, first responders, leadership teams, and organizations navigating significant change or loss.
Whether delivering a one-hour Lunch & Learn or facilitating a full-day workshop, Garion's goal is the same: to normalize conversations about mental health, equip teams with practical tools, and create lasting cultural shifts within organizations.
