In my experience as a therapist, I have repeatedly found myself in a place of feeling stuck and needing some help. The kind of work that we do can be extremely challenging, and you might find yourself feeling confused, overwhelmed, lost, or maybe even bored. And you want something more.
Consultation groups provide a space to grow and develop alongside other clinicians, and I've found that change can happen in very unique ways within the context of a safe, supportive group. Groups will be offered on a variety of topic areas, including Emotionally Focused Couple's Therapy, Play Therapy, Self-of-Therapist issues, and Developing Your Own Private Practice.
Focus: In each group meeting, we will take an in-depth look at our own self-of-therapist process when working with clients. This can include understanding more about how to bring your own presence into sessions, navigating reactions to clients (i.e. feeling irritated, frozen, burned-out, cautious, etc.), and learning how to be a support to yourself in challenging situations with clients.

Focus: This group is ideal for clinicians who have completed the Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy externship and are participating in/considering Core Skills. In our work together, we will explore the EFCT model in deeper ways, both objectively and experientially. There will be opportunities to sharpen skills, collaborate with colleagues, and become more confident in the unique ways that you embody and practice EFCT.
