Therapy for Therapists (and Other Helping Professionals)

You’re a therapist: you get it!

No matter how much we love our work, this can be a tough job. Our work is incredibly rewarding, but it has its challenges.

Please get in touch if you’re:

• experiencing burnout

• struggling with countertransference, or

• noticing symptoms of secondary traumatic stress, like trouble sleeping

Note that this is not supervision and I am not a supervisor.

My goal is simply to provide support for fellow therapists — and social workers, medical professionals, child protection officers, activists, advocates, and anyone who works in the field of helping others — so we can be present for clients and continue doing work that sustains us, rather than drains us.

P.S. You can use the Professional Quality of Life Measure (ProQOL 5.0) to assess your feelings about your work and its impact on your mental and emotional wellbeing. If you notice anything concerning, let’s talk!
