Clinical Consultation Group

Ongoing Consultation for Therapists Seeking Greater Depth, Clarity, and Collegial Growth

Many therapists reach a point where standard supervision, technique alone, or isolated private practice no longer feels sufficient.

You may want sharper case formulation, stronger presence in the room, deeper relational skill, or a richer framework for understanding suffering and change.

The Praxis Clinical Consultation Group is a facilitated ongoing community designed to help therapists think more deeply, work more skillfully, and grow into a steadier clinical identity—while building meaningful collegial relationships along the way.

Whether you are prelicensed or fully licensed, consultation can become a place where your development as a clinician continues.

Why Group Consultation

Growth Happens Better in Community

Many clinicians carry their work alone.

Private practice can become isolating. Agency work can become transactional. Traditional supervision may focus narrowly on compliance, logistics, or case management.

Group consultation offers something different:

  • Learn from multiple cases and perspectives

  • Develop shared clinical language

  • Build meaningful collegial relationships

  • Reduce professional isolation

  • Grow confidence through honest dialogue

  • Sharpen thinking through real-time discussion

  • Experience a community of thoughtful clinicians

This is not only a place to solve cases.

It is a place to grow in company with others.

Who This is For

Support for Therapists in Real Clinical Work

Consultation may be a strong fit if you are:

  • Feeling stuck with complex cases

  • Wanting stronger case formulation and treatment planning

  • Craving deeper work than symptom management alone

  • Navigating countertransference or emotional activation

  • Unsure how to integrate theory into practice

  • Building confidence as a newer clinician

  • Burned out or isolated in private practice

  • Wanting to refine your voice and identity as a therapist

  • Seeking mentorship beyond compliance-based supervision

A Wiser Way to Grow Clinically

More Than Case Problem-Solving

At Praxis, consultation is not only about what to do next with a client.

It is about learning to think psychologically, work relationally, and remain grounded amidst complexity.

We believe the therapist is part of the instrument. Because of that, consultation attends not only to interventions, but to the person of the clinician—their emotional responses, assumptions, strengths, blind spots, and growing capacity.

This creates clinicians who are not only more knowledgeable, but more capable.

What We Work On

Consultation May Include:

Case Formulation

Move beyond surface symptoms into developmental, relational, and meaning-centered understanding of the client.

Stuck Cases

Understand recurring loops, impasses, resistance, or lack of movement.

Countertransference & Therapist Experience

Use your emotional responses as useful clinical information rather than private shame or confusion.

Relational Depth

Strengthen your ability to pace, confront, attune, and stay present in difficult moments.

Clinical Identity

Clarify your style, strengths, and evolving professional voice.

Sustainable Practice

Build a way of working that is both effective and humane over time.

Our Consultation Framework

From Symptom to Meaning

Praxis approaches symptoms seriously—but not superficially.

Alongside diagnosis, goals, and evidence-based care, we ask additional questions:

  • What developmental task may be stalled here?

  • What pattern keeps repeating?

  • What is the symptom protecting, expressing, or calling forward?

  • What identity transition is struggling to occur?

  • What does therapy need to provide that life has not yet provided?

This broader lens often creates more durable and humane treatment planning.

Facilitated by Praxis Clinicians

Common Questions

  • Consultation can complement supervision, but it is distinct from formal board-required supervision unless explicitly arranged as such.

  • No. Early-career and seasoned clinicians can both benefit.

  • No. There is value in presenting, listening, and learning through the work of others.

  • That is one reason this space exists.
