I don’t always have certainty in session — but I’m learning that confidence doesn’t require it.
Curious how others navigate that balance. What’s helped you?

What does 'trying' mean to you as a practitioner, both in your practice and outside of it?

Not every meaningful intervention looks impressive in the moment.
Sometimes it’s just being present and not rushing.
What’s a small thing you do that you think actually makes a big difference?

🪷 Embrace the balance between supporting others (your family, clients, colleagues...) and taking care of yourself. 🪷

Touchstone is more than just an educational institute; it's a community where clinicians can feel at home, connected, and supported.
🪷 What does touchstone mean to you?

Having coworkers isn’t about structure; it’s about talking to someone who understands what it’s like to do this work.
I'm just saying: we all need a colleague or two who know the inside of this job.
#lifeofatherapist #therapistsupport #therapistlife #privatepracticesuccess #therapistcommunity
Private practice can be lonely, and I'll always make a strong case for intentionally building connection. I think every therapist should have coworkers, even if they’re not in the same practice.

Minimalist line drawing of two hands reaching for each other on a soft gradient background. Text above reads: “A gentle reminder:” and below, “It’s okay to ask for help.” Image shared by The Touchstone Institute.
Just a little reminder: it's okay to ask for help.

It’s about being in it with them, helping them troubleshoot and emotionally regulate through the process. You’re a bad supervisor if you make them feel alone in that process.
#therapistsupport #therapisttraining #privatepractice #privatepracticesuccess #therapistcommunity
Associates: you deserve a supervisor who helps you build, not just one who reminds you what you owe.

Things that count as progress:
✔️ Cancelling a session because you know you need rest
✔️ Naming your feeling instead of numbing it
✔️ Saying “I don’t know” — and staying curious
Celebrate the tiny shifts. They’re not tiny at all.
#TherapyJourney #TherapistCommunity
Therapists need community, not just CEUs.
We need:
💬 Safe peer check-ins
🫂 Emotional debriefs
☕ Coffee without case notes
If you're reading this—you deserve support too.
#TherapistCommunity #TherapistsNeedTherapy #MentalHealthSupport #PeerSupervision
Supervision isn’t just for new therapists.
Even experienced clinicians need a space to process, reflect, & grow.
Normalize ongoing mentorship. We’re all still learning.
Who’s been a pivotal mentor in your journey?
