  • I love that there is support for everyone, regardless of where you work, where you live, how you practice, or even how long you've been working in the field. It also has a small, intimate feel, and I don't believe you can really find that anywhere else online.

    Nicole Arzt, LMFT

  • I love the warm and friendly collaboration. It can be super lonely in private practice, especially when it's 100% virtual. I never have to fear asking a question or providing feedback on the Network.

    Nikki Lacherza-Drew, PsyD

  • I like that I can always access opinions of a diverse crowd for client consult issues or resources. I like knowing there is a group I can go to that has a similar value set regarding consultation and continuing to learn and grow as a clinician. Lastly, virtually all feedback or opinions given are framed very positively with little to no negativity or judgment.

    Arin Salisbury, LCPC

  • I love having a go to space to vent, process, and find support! The consultation groups are fantastic resources, and there are so many great opportunities for further education and exploring of different parts of the field that I don’t encounter on a daily basis. I always know there is some interesting discussion to catch up on too at the end of a busy week even if I haven’t checked in in a while!

    Emily Martin, LCSW

  • I am a solo practitioner and it definitely gets lonely at times. Having this network for support, advice, and encouragement has really helped me transition into private practice much smoother than I thought it would be. I feel comforted knowing there are various consultation groups scheduled throughout the month. If I have any questions or issues, I can always join one of those groups. I have also taken several of the masterclasses. I absolutely love them! I have learned so much in a short period of time with the network! I am so glad I joined!!

    Tracy Wrocklage, LPC, LCADC

  • I love the warmth and support here, and how that's coupled with honest thoughts and real information. It's the only place I've found that feels like this.

    Stephanie Stiavetti, PCC/MFT Masters Student

  • As a still relatively new therapist, the Network has afforded me the opportunity to continue to learn through the masterclasses and seek advice and guidance from a variety of providers with a range of expertise. I work in an agency so anyone could walk through my door. With the Network, I’m confident someone here has experience with SUD, kids, couples, perinatal mood disorders, psychosis, etc. It’s a breath of fresh air to have a place separate from my place of work to seek additional consultation, education and guidance.

    Jenna Humphries, LPC

  • I appreciate having a space that I can ask and also give support to others. My feelings of isolation and loneliness have decreased dramatically since I joined. So thankful I found this!

    Shannon McInchak, LMSW

  • I love the variety of consultation groups that are provided and the feeling of not being alone in this work. I have been validated, cared for, and supported immensely from consult groups and posts in the group.

    Rachel Elder, LMHC

  • This is one of the most helpful and supportive networking groups I have been apart of. The variety of consult groups are impressive and relevant to the current times. It truly feels like a community!

    Jessica Clark, LCSW

  • The Network has allowed me to feel connected to other mental health professionals that I otherwise would have never most likely met. It is a helpful resource to be able to relate to professionals within the field, gain insight for new ideas for my practice, and continue to build my therapeutic identity for clients. I also like that there are ways to share resources, gain education through masterclasses, and just be able to relate to others, especially in a time when being a therapist can be isolating. It feels like a group of friends!

    Tonya Valentine, LPC

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Therapist Network a private consultation community for forward-thinking therapists to leverage the collective support and power of their peers to work smarter, share resources, consult with peers, increase confidence and prevent burnout.

    Many members call the Network their therapist home because the Network connects you with high-quality peers who will support, motivate, and challenge you to achieve your professional and personal goals faster, with unlimited consultation groups, and with more ease.

    Membership to the Therapist Network is all-access. This means every member has instant access to all of our services, including:

    Our founder, Kathryn Esquer, PsyD, MBA, created the Therapist Network out of her own need for community and connection. Even as we've grown, our leadership team continues to be comprised of all practicing therapists.

  • πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ If we had a dollar for every time someone asked us this…

    The Therapist Network is not social media. Although we socialize a lot inside the Network, we designed the Network to be a hub of personal and professional support that you can 1) log into, 2) get what you need, and 3) get back to living your life.

    The fact that we’re private and away from the distractions of social media attracts a very different type of therapist. We’re a group of therapists who want to build quality relationships with our peers, not just crowdsource an EHR discount code or spam your inbox with coaching services.

    We don’t accept sponsors or advertisements, so you’ll never be pushed to waste your money on products and services you don’t need. Plus, we screen every member who enters the group to ensure that everyone is a qualified mental health professional. Even though we charge a membership rate, we guarantee it’s a lot more affordable than most one-time workshops and won't waste your time like other free groups.

  • There are plenty of free CEUs out there, but we're not one of them. Here's why: Content inside the Network addresses all aspects of life as a therapist, not just the content or education recognized as valuable by CE institutions. We’re talking about everything being a therapist entails, like business practices, self-care, and new clinical trends. Nothing is off-limits.

    Additionally, Consultation Groups and CEUs are separate and distinct. CEUs are not a replacement for clinical consultations and vice versa. You need both CEUs and clinical consultations to practice ethically, not one or the other.

  • All of our consultation groups are open to all members (with the exception of special pre-licensed consultation groups). The consultation groups are member-led, with the group host running the consultation group to fit their style. It's not the most appropriate comparison, but we liken the format to support groups like AA. We have a number of different consultation groups available to members at any given time, but most members find one or two groups to attend regularly (their "home" groups).

    Because we have so many consultation groups available, the average attendance is 4-8 members. It depends on the style of the consultation group host, but most consultation groups triage the attending members' cases/questions and manage the time so that most (usually all) of the members in need of consultation get time.

    We try to vary the days and times of live consultation groups so that members in different time zones can attend, but the existing groups may not naturally fit into your existing schedule. Most members adjust their schedules to prioritize one or two consults a month. Additionally, we're constantly rolling out new consult groups based on the needs and expertise of members. You can see a live calendar of our events here.

  • While we’re not your accountant, we are a professional organization for licensed mental health clinicians interested in teletherapy, which is almost always a deductible expense.

  • We’re a community exclusively for licensed mental health professionals. You’ll be asked to provide your license information during registration so that we can verify it.

    We welcome pre-licensed clinicians, too! This is anyone currently in graduate school or post-grads working toward licensure.

  • Although we’re sure you’ll want to stick around, there is absolutely no minimum membership required. However, we cannot guarantee a future membership seat once you leave the Network. To cancel your membership at any time, just click here.

  • We sure do! We’re hosted by Mighty Networks, which is the furthest thing from social media. When you log into the Network, you receive exactly what you need, when you need it. Plus, there will never be ads or extra noise. Download the app here.

  • Absolutely not! We’re an international community that brings together licensed mental health clinicians across the world to share cultures, experiences, and expertise. We have members in over a dozen timezones!

  • Absolutely. We love supporting group practices in improving clinical outcomes, referral base, and burnout support. In fact, many group practices offer membership to the Therapist Network as a perk to their contractors and employees. Email us here to talk about group discounts and custom group communities.
