The Therapist Cafe™
Huddle. Learn. Grow
Absolutely! You don't have to be licensed in Texas to join The Therapist Cafe™, you can be residing or licensed in any state. In fact, that is what makes this community so robust and unique-you will learn, connect and grow with a diverse group of therapists. The goal is to grow and spread this community far and wide so we can help more and more Therapists.
To provide emerging therapists with an affordable and accessible community that extends their learning and growth through huddles, didactic lessons, fresh perspectives and holistic support, to ultimately elevate confidence and competence in the therapy room.
✔️ Didactic learning on Trauma, Theory/Concepts ✔️ Ethical Case Consultation/Conceptualization ✔️ Cultural competence & humility ✔️ Vicarious Trauma + Countertransference ✔️ Help therapists explore different ideas about how they support clients ✔️ Engage with therapists from diverse backgrounds and fresh perspectives ✔️ Build community resources list
Ideal for ambitious therapists that are eager to learn and grow in the areas of trauma, grief/loss, perinatal mental health and multicultural competence. Community open to: Associates, New/fully licensed therapists, School Counselors, LCSW's or LMSW's on their way to LCSW
ME! I'm super stoked because this is exactly what I love doing! Teaching and supporting other clinicians in their growth. Although I support my Associates in supervision, I felt the need to offer a community of ongoing learning to all budding and new therapists out there that could benefit from my areas of expertise and grow holistically. This community is a great addition to concurrent supervision. It is not a replacement for supervision. I’ve been a therapist for over 10 years. I'm an LPC-S, RPT-S. I’ve been a CEU provider with BHEC (Texas) for the past 4 years. I provide trainings and have presented at major conferences on Trauma/Grief, Trauma-Informed care, Trauma-informed Therapists, cultural competence and humility, Perinatal Mental Health and more!
This community would be a great place to find ongoing support, after the completion of your supervision hours. Years ago as an associate, I recall continuing to need some support as I navigated being fully licensed without having to pay for additional supervision. This is a great option for that additional support.
Your individual/group supervision is gold for your Associates. However, time is limited and the focus is usually on the cases at hand. In this community, your Associates will get a chance to learn about various different concepts, theories and ideas in counseling/therapy. And most importantly, they will get a chance to elevate their multicultural competence and confidence. Think of it as additional, ongoing learning that enriches their existing supervision with you.
This community is super affordable, accessible and valuable opportunity to grow in areas and elevate your confidence as a holistic, well informed therapist. All your individual cases will still be staffed with your supervisor. This community and the live meet-ups will be opportunities to extend your learning and growth in ways that individual/group supervision alone cannot provide.
Yes! but at this time, it is only for therapists that are fully licensed in the State of Texas. You can receive up to 6 CEU over a 12 month period (3 CEU's over a 6 mo period). If you are an Associate, you could receive non-direct hours-based on your Supervisor's discretion.
