This group provides a confidential, supportive environment tailored to early career therapists (i.e., registered, provisionally registered, and qualifying practitioners in their first five years of practice) who want to focus on their own well-being. It offers a unique space for clinicians to step away from their professional roles and explore their personal emotions in a healing and restorative setting. In this group, you’ll have the chance to connect with fellow therapists, share experiences, and process the complex emotional demands of your work.
​
As therapists, we may be prone to prioritize others' needs over our own. This group creates an opportunity to shift that focus—giving you space to better understand your emotions, explore vulnerability, and receive feedback on how you impact and are impacted by those around you. Together, we will address the unique challenges of the profession while fostering personal healing, emotional support, and mutual connection. By focusing on your well-being, you can become a more grounded version of yourself, better equipped to support your clients.
Participants will gain valuable insights into their emotional triggers, develop coping strategies, and practice new ways of relating and communicating—both within the group and in their personal and professional lives. Whether you’re seeking a place to process your feelings, build resilience, or strengthen your self-care practices, this group offers a safe, nurturing space to prioritize your mental health.
