Are you at the intersection of “I’ll never get this documentation in on time” and“ I don’t know if I’m cut out for this job?”

No matter how hard you try, you find yourself two weeks behind on your progress notes. Then, when you sit down to write, you aren’t sure how to make your session billable. You procrastinate until the anxiety of not getting your assessments done on time gives you a headache. You’ve got two treatment plans to create and one in the queue and can’t imagine how you’re going to finish them and meet production numbers.

Has it been so long that you’ve done laundry you’re down to your last pair of clean socks? You’ve been so emotionally exhausted that you haven’t cooked a healthy meal in weeks and the drive through cashier at your local McDonald’s has your name and order memorized.

Hi, I’m Kim. I help Associate and Licensed Therapists ditch stress, self-doubt and poor self-care – and embrace a new way of being a therapist by finding balance and joy in the career you worked so hard to have. I will help you discover ways to have space for the joy and satisfaction that comes with being a therapist – so you remember the reason you became a therapist in the first place.

Do you feel like you are just going through the motions? Have you been on auto-pilot for so long you can’t remember the last time you felt joy or had fun? Maybe you’ve completely neglected yourself. So, when you get home from work you just collapse. You don’t talk or hangout with your family because you have nothing left to give — plus you still have some progress notes to write.

Being rundown and burnt out, has made you discouraged about your future. You doubt if you’ll achieve success and satisfaction working in community mental health and enjoy a full and happy life.

Hello! I’m Jill. I know what you’re going through because I’ve been there. I’m a recovering burnt out, self-neglecting therapist. I don’t want you to stay stuck in that ‘burnout life’ as long as I did. Let me hold space for you to decompress and get the support you need to level-up your clinical skills and restore your well-being. Imagine how it will fee to hold space for clients, provide quality care — and have room for yourself, your family and clinical growth. The career and life you planned is possible. Let’s work together to get you there.

Are you worried that you may not know enough about theories and interventions to help your clients meet their goals? And — the interventions that you did learn in school don’t really resonate with the clients you serve.

I wonder if this rings a bell — you’re in a session, your client makes a statement and you’re like “I have no idea what to do or say next.” You wish you could phone a friend. But that seems a little unprofessional, so you wing it until the session is over.

Do the letters BBS make your eye twitch? 😉 I get it. Making heads or tails of BBS rules and documentation requirements can easily put you in a tailspin because — it’s just a LOT.

Do you fall in the paperwork procrastination trap? You know you need to complete your documentation, but the thought of doing it makes your head spin, so you put it off. And you keep putting it off until it’s been 2 weeks, you’ve seen 35 clients and you have ZERO notes completed.

Are you looking forward to the day when you find the right balance between seeing clients, completing your documentation and taking care of yourself? It can seem like that day will never come, believe me I’ve been there. So I can honestly say, the day is closer than you think. I can show you the way.

Hi, my name is Denise!

When I was an associate, I faced all of the issues above and then some. That’s what makes me so passionate about helping associate therapists like you. I’ll show you how to develop a bag of interventions that you can tweak and tailor to fit a variety of therapeutic situations.

I can also help you break down complicated interventions and topics like boundary setting and thought stopping so your clients understand and use the interventions you teach them when needed.

I’m dedicated to helping associates alleviate the stress that comes with the ‘administrative’ part of therapy by sharing time and organizational skills so all your paperwork will be up to date.

Are you ready to find freedom from the negative chatter in your head? You know the kind — it’s on a constant loop saying you aren’t good enough for that partner or that you shouldn’t start your own business because you’re just going to fail.

Do you need a place to talk about how tough it is being a mixed-raced person? Because if one more person asks “so, what are you, where are you from” (when what they really mean is “why do you look the way you do “), you’re going to scream?

Has someone special in your life died, and even though everyone says “they’re in a better place” and that you should be over it by now, you’re not.

You deserve to have freedom from the anxiety, sadness and grief that come with living this thing we call life. Together we can make that happen.

Hi, my name is Kama! I work with adults and teens who are tired of making unhealthy decisions and missing out on blessings because of overwhelming emotions.

In my sessions I create a light-hearted, safe place where clients feel comfortable kicking back and being real. A place where you can address and resolve what’s holding you back from living an amazing life.

Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, you can’t get your life to turn out the way you envisioned it — whether it’s being a better parent, getting your anxiety under control, or recovering from trauma.

Do you feel STUCK making the same few mistakes over and over on a loop, like getting into unhealthy relationships, putting yourself last, or ignoring your partner or mental health?

After each time, you swear it won’t happen again — but it does. This is out of character and it’s not who you want to be. But you don’t know why you started acting this way and you can’t figure out how to stop.

Maybe you have a teen in your life who has big emotions that they can’t keep under control. It’s causing problems with “errbody” including you. The frustrating part is you can’t get them off their phone long enough to figure out what’s going on.

Did you bring the unhealthy family dynamics from your childhood into your adulthood? A lot of us do and it’s hard to shake, especially when “momma-and-them” are around. To make it worse, when you tell them the drama needs to stop, they blame you.

Life and relationships are hard, but there are ways to make it easier, I can show you how.

Hi, my name is Joseph! I can relate to feeling stuck and confused about how to move forward and do things differently. The person you want to become is within reach! I’d love to help you get there.

You are tired of talking about the same things to family and friends — because they are not getting better and — they are tired of hearing about them. You find yourself having the same problems with different people — partners, kids and colleagues. But you aren’t able to resolve them, you don’t know why and it’s really disrupting your life.

No matter how hard you try, or what changes you make you just can’t find the happiness you know you deserve.

What if you had someone to help you sort things out? To help you see the world through a different lens and help you understand why you do what you do. And how your childhood, family and relationships impact how you live your life today. Someone who makes you feel safe digging into the parts of your life that you’ve kept secret because of embarrassment and shame.

That someone is me. Hi I’m Brittany! Sometimes we need a neutral and non-judgmental person to help us navigate through the bumps and bruises of life. I can help you unpack the toxic, emotional stuff and replace it with happiness, emotional comfort and joy. Together we can rebuild parts of your life, piece by piece, until it looks like the life you’ve always wanted to live.
