My June group spots are now available
PM

Spots are already being reserved for June, and once groups are full I won’t be adding additional seats!

Clinical work can be deeply rewarding , and incredibly isolating without the right space to process, reflect, and grow!
These supervision groups are designed for therapists who want more than surface level conversation. This is a space for meaningful clinical discussion, honest consultation, deeper insight, and the kind of professional growth that strengthens both confidence and practice.

You can choose from one of these powerful topics
• Complex case discussions and clinical insight
• Ethical dilemmas and private practice realities
• Couples work, attachment dynamics, and relational patterns

I keep these groups intentionally small so conversations stay thoughtful, engaged, and clinically valuable.

Reach out if one of these dates work!
Wednesday, June 10
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Wednesday, June 17
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Friday, June 19

When I calculated my hours awhile back and reached over 10,000 hours it made me emotional. I wasn’t expecting the flood of flashbacks to so many significant client moments, the healing the “ah ha’s , the gratitude and the pride I felt for each of my clients. Being present for 10,000 hours of such important parts of your journey has me full of so many emotions!

There is something about sitting across from another human being and being invited into their world. It’s something I don’t think I’ll ever fully be able to put into words.
These 10,000 hours aren’t just time. They are thousands of honest conversations, moments of courage, tears, breakthroughs, and quiet shifts that change everything over time.

Not surprisingly, this work has changed me too. It has asked me to grow, to look at myself, to stay grounded, and to keep showing up with integrity focus and perspective again and again.
After nearly 14 years, I still feel the power of this work every single day… and the privilege of being part of it.

I carry deep respect for every story I’ve been trusted with, and that will never change.

To every client who has sat with me, who has trusted me with parts of your story that aren’t easy to share, thank you.
You matter more than you know.~Ginger 😊

I’ve created these April groups to be a space where both new and experienced therapists can come together, not just to learn, but to refine, expand, and reconnect with your work.

More experienced therapists come in looking for depth, perspective, and renewed energy
Newer therapists often come in looking for guidance and structure

Both belong here.

These groups are collaborative, honest, and practical. You’ll leave with new ways of thinking about your cases, fresh tools you can actually use, and connections with other therapists who are doing this work alongside you.

April dates:
April 22
April 24
April 29

If you’re wanting support, new resources, and a space that challenges you in the right way, I’d love to have you join us.

Spots are intentionally limited to keep the groups meaningful. ~ Ginger 😊

After years of sitting with couples, these are three things I come back to again and again.

Positive regard
Choose to see your partner beyond the moment you’re frustrated.

Self responsibility
Catch your reactions before turning them into blame.

Bids for connection
Reach for your partner in small ways, often.

Doing the work in a relationship isn’t about big moments. It’s about being consistent, accountable, and intentional in the small ones.
If you focused on just these for the next month… you would start to feel a shift.
Not overnight. Not perfectly. But noticeably.

Save this and come back to it when you feel disconnected ~ Ginger 😊

My People pleasers… quick check in.
One thing I see in my clients all the time is this.

Someone around them is upset, frustrated, quiet, or disappointed… and their brain immediately starts scanning for what they did wrong.
Often this pattern didn’t start in adulthood.
It can come from growing up feeling like you had to be “good” or perfect to be accepted.
Being the peacekeeper in the family.
Feeling responsible for everyone else’s emotions.

So your nervous system learned something early.
If someone is upset, it must be because of me.

Something small I would love for you to try this week.

When someone around you is upset, pause before going into fix mode and ask yourself
“Did I actually do something wrong”
OR
“am I just uncomfortable with someone else being uncomfortable”

That pause alone can start to change the pattern.

And please remember as cliche as it sounds
You don’t have to believe and act on everything you think!! ~ Ginger 😊

(Permission to post!)

One of my awesome Supervisee’s sent me this reel last week with a “ wow how me today 🤣 ” text I laughed!

But then it stoped me for a minute to think about how vulnerable a therapist can feel from time to time. This therapist has been in practice for 17 years, but had a very difficult session…and that’s okay, normal and important!

Knowing this therapist knew right away they could ask for a quick call warmed my heart. This is the real reason I feel so passionately about the work I do and the therapists I support. Whether you are in your 1st year, or your 20th year of practice I got you.

So….. Can you talk for a sec?’
Yes. I can. And will always make time for a quick call text or email if you need it! That’s what supervision is for.
This work is meaningful and heavy and sometimes confusing , you don’t have to hold it alone.

I’m here for the questions, the doubts, the ‘did I handle that right?’ moments, and everything in between. not only do I hold my work very tenderly, I hold yours, just as carefully too! ~ Ginger 😊

March dates are now out!

I know many of you wait for these to be released each month, so here they are!

March 13, 18, 25 and 27.

This group is for therapists who care deeply about doing thoughtful, ethical, skillful work. Supervision is not something we scramble for when a client is in crisis. It is part of ongoing professional development and responsible client care. Consistent consultation sharpens clinical judgment, strengthens decision making, and supports you in navigating complex dynamics with clarity.

I also know there is a lot of uncertainty right now around regulation changes and association updates. I have intentionally built in dedicated time for questions and discussion so we can talk through what is shifting and what it means for your practice.

These spaces are always small and they do fill.

If you have been meaning to prioritize your growth and your standards of care, this is your invitation.
~ Ginger 😊
