Professional peer consultation for Licensed Therapists
When a case feels complex, your usual framework feels too narrow, or you would benefit from a thoughtful second perspective, professional consultation can create room to clarify the work and expand your options.
I offer individual peer consultation for licensed therapists who want an integrative, clinically grounded space to think through adult trauma, attachment, and challenging clinical work.
This service is for licensed therapists seeking professional peer consultation. It is not ASW supervision and does not provide pre-licensure supervision hours.
$175 per 50-minute individual consultation · Limited sliding-scale availability
A More Flexible Way to Think Through Complex Clinical Work
Complex clinical work does not always fit neatly inside one modality.
My consultation framework brings together EMDR, Level 1 IFS, CBT, psychodynamic theory, and applied psychobiology. Together, we can move beyond rigid approaches and consider dynamic, outside-the-box interventions tailored to the nuances of adult trauma, attachment, and the individual clinical situation.
Professional consultation may be helpful when you want to:
- Think through a case that feels stuck or unusually complex
- Explore adult trauma or attachment through several clinical lenses
- Integrate different modalities without losing a coherent direction
- Consider interventions outside your usual framework
- Receive thoughtful feedback that supports your continued professional growth
This is a collaborative consultation between licensed professionals. It is not supervision, evaluation, or oversight toward licensure.
Consultation Shaped Around Your Goals
You may bring a specific clinical question, a recurring challenge in your work, or an area of practice you would like to develop more deeply.
The consultee questionnaire gives you an opportunity to identify:
- Your goals for consultation
- Areas of your practice that need additional attention
- Current professional or clinical challenges
- Your expectations for consultation
- Your preferred style of feedback and communication
- Personal or professional values you want the work to reflect
- Previous consultation experiences
- Resources or tools you would like to explore
These are the areas addressed in Kate’s nine-question consultee questionnaire.
* Please do not submit client names or other identifying information through the website form or questionnaire.
