But now that you’re in the field, are you wondering:

“Where do I fit in this profession?”
“How do I bring my full self to work?”
“Why does this feel harder than I expected?”
 

You’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out on your own.

The Ground Floor Processing Group is an 8-week virtual space created specifically for therapists in their first 0–3 years of practice. It’s not about case consultation or clinical skills, it’s about you:
Your identity.
Your challenges.
Your inner voice.

What This Group Is:

A processing group, not supervision or training, where new clinicians can step back from the doing and reflect on the being. Through shared conversation and guided themes, you'll explore the real, emotional experience of becoming a therapist.

• Professional Identity & Role Development
   
• Carrying It All: Emotional Labor & the Inner Experience
   
• The Voice Inside — Self-Doubt & Perfectionism
   
• Boundaries, Guilt & Growth
   
• When the Work Doesn’t Match the Dream
   
• Bridging Therapist Identity & Personal Story
   
• Visioning Your Future Self
   
• Closure & Integration
   

• Honest, grounded, supportive conversations
   
• Connection with peers walking the same path
   
• A chance to name the hard stuff and hear, “Me too.”
   
• A space that holds you, not just your clinical role
   

This is not a supervision group. There will be no clinical case consultation or CE credits provided. It is a peer-based reflective group intended to support your personal and professional growth as a new therapist.

If you’d like to connect before registering or have any questions, feel free to reach out. I’d love to hear from you.  sharlene@healingtogethersolutions.com or 770-765-3357.
