Free Clinician Peer Group for Supporters of Relationship Abuse Survivors
Hi I’m Catrina!
I deeply believe in the value of peer support for clinicians who work with trauma and domestic violence. This work asks a lot of us. Having a space where we can reflect, consult, and support one another is not just helpful, it is essential.
This group is designed to be a steady, collaborative environment where we can share insights, explore challenges, and strengthen our clinical skills in ways that feel ethical, thoughtful, and sustainable. When we feel supported, our clients feel that support too.
My commitment to domestic violence awareness and prevention is at the heart of this offering. I want to create a space where clinicians can grow, feel less alone in the work, and continue showing up for survivors with clarity and compassion.
If you are looking for thoughtful connection and meaningful professional support, I invite you to join our Clinical Peer Support Group. Together, we can nurture resilience in ourselves and in the communities we serve.
