with & willing:
6-month group mentorship
for therapists and practitioners
ready to be lit up by every session, every day…
*Can the work you love actually energize you - instead of drain you - every day?
*Can you be in deep emotional connection with clients without
succumbing to compassion-fatigue and burnout?
*Can you also answer emails, write client notes, market your business, and navigate your personal relationships with that same level of connection and passion?
yes. it takes your willingness
& your with-ness.
Join me in a 6-Month Group Mentorship Intensive for therapists and practitioners who are ready to take full responsibility for their own energy in their practice:
*Who are no longer willing to drain themselves through over-giving, holding-back their gifts, or pretending there’s ‘not enough time’ to tend to their own creativity & aliveness.
*Who know it’s time to end the isolation. Name the shame, self-doubt and comparison. And connect with fellow practitioners vulnerably & authentically.
*Who are ready to challenge the most damaging belief in our industry:
That being in the caring professional is inherently draining work.
↑(Psssst. It’s not true, come find out why.)↑
*Are you ready to hold the deepest service for your clients, the truth that they are inherently good and inherently worthy,
because you’re willing to go on the inner search to know it’s true about yourself?
*Are you willing to face your resistance, move through discomfort,
unfold into your imagination, claim your agency, be seen, feel feel feel….
and come fully alive into yourself?
if so, I’ve been waiting for you.
together, we’ll transform your practice
into your practice:
Practice of what?
Of who you become when
shame & blame becomes willingness, excitement, connection,
and a true life of meaning.
When:
*Who you are in session becomes more important than what you do.
*Your countertransference and resistance transform from bothersome problems into the gateway for incredible healing and relationality with clients.
*You end the battle to finally be ‘a good-enough therapist’ and step
into the embodied self-love, trust, & confidence that is your deepest service.
*You access a flow state of inspiration where knowledge and intuition merge.
*You feel an unshakeable connection to your deeper purpose, to the passion that brought you to this career.
*And when work is over, you still have energy for relationships, joy, play.
in an industry that systematizes burnout…
you must choose aliveness.
Working together is a choice point.
A dedication to a life of internal freedom,
regardless of the external system.
no more proving:
What if there was no corner of yourself that you couldn’t walk into? What if there’s no more questioning your capability or worth?
What if you felt confident knowing you always have access to an incredible inner source of creativity and self-trust?
in our time together:
-
monthly in-person group session (2 hrs)
You'll receive poignant energetic coaching from me about the true relational interactions occurring in your practice. You’ll get crystal clear on the way you use your energy during session, transforming patterns of drain/avoidance/over-giving into deep compassion and energizing service.
We’ll engage your imagination and felt-experience of your self through guided exercises and group experiments. and end the sensation of isolation by sharing openly with peers.
You’ll learn to sense and shape your energetic field, tap the well of your inner world, and confront your belief systems, so you can take responsibility for your own energy (in session and out).
-
energetic curriculum
Stay engaged with a transformative written curriculum designed to challenge your beliefs, up-end paradigms, and inspire you to create a life of meaning and artistry.
Every month we’ll be with a different energetic topic that directly supports you in creating a foundation of soul-level trust and presence with yourself and with your clients.
Our coursework will range from What is a Soul? all the way to The Energetics of Money and Charging. Expect a group-tailored arc that moves from the individual to the relational over the course of our time together.
-
monthly zoom group session (1 hr)
Sessions of giving and receiving through rounds of questions. Outside of the seat of the facilitator, you'll practice the heart of relationship:
Being willing to be fully with yourself, while being fully willing to be affected by the other.
Challenge industry- held stigmas that withdrawing from the emotions of the other will protect you. Discover how the more deeply you attune to yourself, the more deeply you can experience another. No drain necessary.
-
bi-weekly meditations
You’ll receive two meditation per month. Art pieces crafted by me to hone your most important skill — your willingness and resilience to engage with your internal reality.
Ranging from long imaginal journeys, to the ever so crucial Daily 15 Min Sit, these explorations will become touchstones for you to experience your inner world with structure and guidance.
Use them as tools to tend and work with highly charged, pivotal aspects of your healing. Engaging creatively and actively outside of session allows you to bring the heart of your challenges into our time together.
-
story walk
The most intentional cherry-on-top you’ve ever eaten. At the end of our time together, we’ll all meet in nature and you’ll take yourself on a story walk (intentional, long, and solitary walks in nature) facilitated by me, witnessed by our group.
You’ll walk with a purpose: claiming who you are as a practitioner, an artist of relationship, a creator of your own life.
And when you return: you’ll share your story with the group, speaking the myth of your life.
Free from distractions, these walks reveal hidden aspects of yourself, gift and shadow alike. In these hours the changes you’ve made and the person you’re becoming are undeniable.

leaning in but also freaking out? keep reading! also…
when you apply you’ll recevie a free 45-min chat with me to ask questions, unpack the investment, and get clear on why you’re committing to yourself.
your investment:
whoa leif…
But could I really invest that much in myself?
If being a care practitioner — being in deep, healing, and vital relationship with other human beings — IS what you know you are meant to be doing with your life
AND
You're finding yourself making sacrifice after sacrifice, doubting your abilities, struggling with chronic depletion under the weight of client burdens... slowly, inevitably, moving towards complete burnout....
How could you not?
It takes true commitment to yourself, and the willingness to receive support to:
change core beliefs and patterns,
discover & maintain new ways of living,
continually ride the growing edge of true freedoom.
The belief in Scarcity is one of the backbones that keep practitioners small — afraid to claim the value of their work, afraid to claim the value of themselves, afraid to finally put themselves first.
I’m offering you another way. I know the rippling power of taking the leap to invest in yourself and actually open to receive mentorship and support. Of claiming a new way to be in relationship with yourself & your clients.
And here’s an energetic truth for you:
If you want to be in true service without burnout and self-sacrifice —
You can only give as much as you allow yourself to receive.
What might be possible for you if you said yes, showed up, leaned into your edges, opened to inspiration, and took bold & aligned actions that repositioned you at the center of your practice?
here’s what’s possible:

laurel:
“It was astonishing when I really stared accepting those part of myself that I didn't like. My body began to heal itself very powerfully, and energy started to return and grow….
I have all of the energy that I had in my twenties and thirties. In conjunction with mental clarity and a wisdom:
It's okay. If things fall apart, it's okay to slow down and take care of those things.”
-
annie:
“The thing that I notice every single day is how comfortable I am with myself in a way that I wasn't before. I was trying to constantly fill my time with others or distractions. Constantly needing something.
I finally feel like I'm comfortable enough within myself to have that pace I've desired for so long. I can just sit and have all this space that I'm not trying to fill. Because the space doesn’t scare me anymore. Because I enjoy what's happening inside.”

anne michael:
“I know myself right now, I know what my needs are. And I know how to express that in a clear way….
You held that container for me, encouraged me, and sat with me. Watched me fall apart, and come back together and fall apart, and come back together and fall apart again. Just with complete and true love and compassion. Seeing from your soul, seeing me and my soul, and seeing my infinite potential. It’s just priceless. Thank you.”

kerri:
“When I came to you initially, I was saying that everyone was taking my energy. And now, that's shifted. Moving amongst people, I feel more free and out of that victimhood. There is a larger sense of freedom within myself.”

eliza:
“Oh this is who I came here to be. This is who's been here all along, and that human is really worth knowing.
I feel like I have language for feelings and shifts that I didn't have before. I have agency.”
FAQs

Groups will be on Saturdays, 1-3pm. December will be the odd month out, we’ll meet on a Sunday.
If you miss a Zoom Council, they’ll be recorded and you can listen. But if you miss in-person, you’ll miss it. This offering hinges on the power of making a commitment to yourself, showing up despite (and because of!) resistance, receiving community support, and engaging in consistent consistent consistent self-exploration.
-
No. When you say yes you’re saying yes to the full 6 months. Again, this is about commitment and directly confronting the excuses and justifications so many of us have used to put ourselves last, energetically collapse, and carry on in a system that hampers true service.
Financial commitment can help prop us up in the moments when commitment to ourselves feels hard to access.

The application helps me determine what will be the best fit for you.
This program is designed to help you stretch your capacity, seek inner truths, get uncomfortable, and really show up for yourself and the humans in the group. This group is for humans with a strong longing for greater agency in their practice and life. Not for those looking to stay victim to the system. Your application helps me confirm this alignment.
If the time isn’t right for us, that doesn’t mean you aren’t fully capable and wonderful. I’ll offer you my suggestions and referrals.
