I believe only a vet needs to touch a beak. Beak overgrowth can be a sign health problems like liver(yes there are exceptionsbut it's what you think of when it gets long suddenly)...and some serious damage can be done on a beak.
That's all...nails ...and if you keep one or two sanded perches in strategic spots after a nail clip, they will stay short.
I would only let my vet do any grooming anyway. Unless I trusted a local person REALLY ALOT and never let anyone take your bird to another room where you can't go. I have that policy at the vet, too, btw.
