Who Holds Space For You As A Leader?
As therapists, we hold space for transformation. But who holds space for you as a leader?
You built your group practice with intention and care, you’re deeply committed to your purpose, yet the daily pull of urgent needs and workplace dynamics leave you feeling stretched - further distancing you from the vision that started it all.
There are days in your leadership when you feel desensitized and depleted (even if you have a leadership team). Days when you feel alone in your mission and misunderstood.
Why Old Paradigms Fall Short
Most leadership solutions focus on operations, compliance, and efficiency - important elements of running a business - yet they neglect the human side of leadership.
After enough disappointment, difficult conversations, and turnover, you realize the old leadership paradigms aren't working. When burnout and compassion fatigue visit you (and your team) in the wake of collective grief and trauma your relational systems and work culture norms are just as important as your operational KPIs.
Work culture isn’t shaped by policies alone; it’s built in the way you and your team engage, navigate challenges, and repair your relationships when there are disagreements.
Our philosophy to trauma-informed leadership begins with honoring your own humanity so you can honor the humanity of your team.
From Hierarchy to Co-Creation
We believe that the quality of your relationships - with your team and among your team - determines the level of psychological safety in your group practice. When relational trust is centered, teams perform better, engage more fully, and clinical outcomes improve.
Trust isn't a static agreement; it's an evolving, relational process that shapes your entire work culture. You don't have to carry your work culture alone. When responsibility for work culture is collectively shared, teams move beyond hierarchy into a co-creative, values-driven dynamic.
An Invitation to Lead Differently
If this message resonates with you and you are seeking a space where your leadership is treated with care and your challenges are addressed with compassion, we invite you to join our next Leadership Consultation Group.
This group is designed for practice owners like you who are navigating the delicate balance of responsibility, values, and impact. Alongside fellow leaders and guided by Poonam and Julianne, we will explore trauma-informed practices, share honest reflections, and collaboratively develop strategies that support you in leading with clarity and connection.
Come as you are. Leave feeling more empowered, less isolated, and deeply supported in your leadership journey.
