Training Consultancy for Mental Health Professionals

Lili Gray - Traning and Consultation

As an endorsed National Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) Trainer- and a member of the global steering committee for CPP, I offer implementation level training in the model and create training content and materials for participants who are training in CPP for the ‘mothership’.

With over two decades of experience training mental health clinicians in evidenced based practice and optimizing work with clients- I’ve had a lot of roles- as a clinician, a supervisor and a director in outpatient, community mental health, child welfare, domestic violence and therapeutic school settings.

I present on early childhood trauma, the impact of trauma on development and relationships, Child Parent Psychotherapy, reflective practice and consultation, self-care and vicarious trauma for providers.

In 2023, I presented at the World Association for Infant Mental Health in Dublin, Ireland, and at the San Diego International Conference on Child and Family Maltreatment, on “Talking to the courts about attachment, the impact of placement on young children, and infant mental health.”

Additionally, I presented at the Zero to Three Learn Conference in 2023 on “They Just Don’t Get It: Building professional capacity to support families when a child dies,” and on “Getting to Being With – The Journey from Wanting to Help to Feeling With – in Infant and Early Childhood Workforce Development.” I also spoke at the Chadwick Annual Conference in 2024.

I am an active member of the board of the Illinois Association for Infant Mental Health, a member of the Florida Association for Infant Mental Health, faculty at Erikson Institute, a DC: 0-5 trainer and a FAN (Facilitating Attuned Interactions) trainer. I am also a Circle of Security Facilitator and Gottman trained- and am a registered yoga and meditation teacher and a certified comprehensive Pilates instructor.

In my free time I enjoy participating in AKC and NACSW scent work with my two long haired dachshunds.

How you are is as important as what you do

Testimonials

Lili has been a great resource for the CPP community. Lili is an amazing clinician who provided us with a wealth of information, quality reflective supervision and support. Lili is very knowledgeable, empathic, kind, and supportive. I am thankful and grateful to have met her and be a part of the weekly CPP consultation calls, she has helped us find the words needed as we all try to make sense of this new normal. Having her insight has been crucial during this transition to telehealth. COVID-19 has changed the way we live, we practice and we support one another, and Lili has helped us make this transition while maintaining CPP fidelity.

Working with Lili in consultation provides me with clarity on the direction of my work, an opportunity to think about cases reflectively, and confidence in knowing I'm providing families with quality care. My work has improved immensely through consultation.
— Abby R., Psychotherapist
I had the privilege to be a peer and supervisee of Lili Gray from 2006 to 2015. Lili is a gifted diagnostician who is able to use those skills to formulate solid treatment plans and implement evidence based treatment. She is able to develop and sustain strong therapeutic alliances with her clients by displaying a combination of confidence and thoughtfulness. Lili has a keen sense about the timing of her interventions and is able to prepare clients so that they are able to take in and process difficult material. She is attuned to the feeling states of her clients and uses this information to deepen the therapeutic alliance. Lili is both a natural leader and a valuable team player. While Lili has demonstrated the strong ability to work with clients across the life span, her passion lies in her work with the 0-5 population.
