Let’s reimagine therapy
and therapist education.

Join the #therapymovement! Connect with a network of professionals where you are seen, included, and respected. Help us to bridge the gap between therapist education and actual therapist experiences – making sense of the world where we were taught one thing and then the real learning begins.

Join us to:

  • Create sustainable careers, incorporating sound business practices and technology, with adequate pay for all therapists.

  • Improve education to reflect modern practices, high quality clinical work, therapist self-care, and the diversity in our communities.

  • Increase representation across the field, supporting inclusion on our stages, in our classrooms, and in our offices.

  • Improve access to mental health care without requiring sacrifice, financial instability, and burnout from therapists.

Let’s reimagine therapy for the modern age – creatively, authentically, ethically, and with respect for the amazing diversity in our communities.

Through our podcast, workshops, and continuing education, we’re exploring how to navigate the role of therapist as it is now.
