Professional Peer Consultation Groups

Providing a safe space to nurture those in our care is both an honor and a primary responsibility for care professionals. In order to provide our best professional care, therapists and care professionals must also care for our self. One care to care for the professional part of us is to be a part of a collegial community that allows each of us to contribute to the collective wisdom of the group and build professional relationships. Good professional relationships can powerfully enhance our own well-being and effectiveness. Connection with trusted colleagues is key to processing our interactions with clients, and what is going on within us — which we all need to do, all the time.

Clinical/professional consultation groups provide many benefits, including:

  • Helping inform us about important therapeutic tools and techniques
  • Providing a basis for wonderful and fulfilling collegial relationships
  • Preventing burnout
  • Helping us recognize our best strengths, and how to develop them
  • Giving us highly cost-effective, regular access to the expertise of each member
  • Each member’s clinical experience gives us a wealth of understanding to share in support of each other.
  • Group clinical consultation is a safe place to talk about complexities of a case, the kind of practice you want to build, to explore and develop what you bring to your work, and enhance your skills as a professional.Providing a basis for wonderful and fulfilling collegial relationships
