Holding What Cannot Be Fixed: A Reflective Consultation Group for Therapists

Facilitated by Juliann Halvorsen, LMFT

When we accompany clients through chronic illness, dementia, suicide, loss and other profound suffering, we confront limits — of medicine, of hope, of control. This group creates space for clinicians to process the emotional and existential impact of high-acuity work, share wisdom, and find renewed connection to purpose, compassion, and the honor of holding space with clients along this journey.

The group leaders have experience and expertise working with traumatized populations and look forward to growing with other clinicians who share a passion of authenticity, when we need it the most.

Non-members are welcome to attend two of our support groups before joining the chapter.

Meetings are online, and we meet on the first Thursday of the month from 6:00 - 7:00 PM. The video link is provided when you register.
