Individual Consultation to help you find your voice
I help therapists who would like support integrating all they have learned to find their true voice in this work. We go to school, we attend lots of trainings and get filled up with information. Eventually it is time to synthesize all we have learned to make it ours. To bring in our true voice and knowing while including the skills, theories, knowledge we have gained.
The strongest predictor of successful therapy is the relationship with therapist and client. That comes from your capacity to really feel you can be yourself. I know this can be hard when there are so many skills you’ve learned, protocols, things to track, it can often become a distraction to just being in your own seat and sitting in presence with your clients. I want to help you integrate all you have learned so it can be expressed from your own place of knowing and not received or clumsily thrown in because you remembered you were supposed to use it.
Specialties
Trauma Informed Treatment:
I am trained in many trauma informed modalities and can support people who are looking to deepen and refine their capacity as a trauma informed therapist. I have training in Internal Family Systems, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Attachment Focused EMDR, Structural Dissociation Models and the work of Janina Fisher. I can help you to refine your understanding of trauma informed treatment, engage in accurate assessment of clients and where they are in their trauma recovery, and all the while support you in being able to offer those skills and tools while feeling like “yourself”
Business Building
I also am available to help therapists who are just starting out in private practice and are wanting support around building their business and all the many tasks that come with that. I know there are many fantastic courses that folks are offering to support with building your business. If that is what works for you I am very glad to pass along the names of folks I think are great at that. For some of us though, the group classes don’t fit the bill. We sign up but find it is just another webinar we don’t have time to watch or it goes too fast and then when it’s over we realize we never did anything past the first two assignments. This creates overwhelm and often we find we just put it in the pile with all the other things we have to do. If this sounds familiar and you know you would benefit more from an individualized approach, with someone who will start where you are and listen for the next steps based on your particular needs and timing, then working together may be a good fit.
I am glad to integrate clinical consultation with business building as often these two go hand in hand. We jump into our practices, are trying to integrate all these skills, and keep a business going. It’s a lot and I love to help people with this. I navigated it myself and had a lot of trial and error. It brings me joy to be able to offer my learnings, my mistakes and my successes in order to help someone do it a little bit better the next time around.
Feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss working together. My fee for individual consultation is $170 per hour.
