Psychotherapy
Peer Support Group
First Tuesday of the Month starting September 2nd
Intention:
Being a therapist can feel lonely sometimes. I feel lonely sometimes! We sit with so much for other people — their fears, their losses, their breakthroughs — and often there’s not a space where we get to be held in that same way. There can be so much uncertainty in this work, and it’s easy to start questioning ourselves.
But most of us didn’t choose this field because we love certainty and control (if only). We chose it because we value connection. We’re curious. We care.
​
My hope for this group is that it’s a space where you don’t have to be “on.” Not a place to figure out how to be a better therapist — but a place to bring how the work is actually impacting you. A space where you can feel more human, not more “professional.” Where you might walk away feeling a little lighter, more connected, and reminded that you are more than enough — just as you are.
​
And hey, there’s food. That always helps.
