JOIN THE COVEN

Does this sound like you? 

 

You're a mental health therapist or something adjacent.

You live or work in or near Portland, Oregon.

You want to share support and feedback with professional peers.

You enjoy having challenging conversations.

You have an open and curious mind. You love to share ideas.

Rest and play are essential elements of your self-care.

You want to make friends with other therapists and just be human together.

​

Then hey, I like you already. 

 

My name is Inness, and I began private practice in 2021, with the support of supervision group The Launch. From the start, I knew it was so important to me to build a community of peers, both to strengthen my work as a counselor, and to enrich my professional and private life. I began my practice with a vision - that one day, I would foster a community (a coven, if you will) of independent mental health professionals, united in one space - one "collective" - to better serve our clients, our communities, and each other.

​

In my vision, the therapists in our collective came from a variety of backgrounds. Each of us had a uniquely personal lens through which we saw the world, but we each shared values related to social justice and to anti-racist therapy practices. In our collective, we engaged in challenging and vital conversations with our peers on a regular basis. We exchanged resources and referrals. We attended trainings and conferences together, or hosted special guests to share their expertise. We practiced self-care by having fun together and getting to know one another beyond our professional roles. And in doing all this, we also happened to kick ass at our jobs - which meant that we served our clients as well as possible.

​

Recently, I've let go of the idea that I have to "create" or "lead" or "own" something like this. Maybe one day, the Coven will take a shape like I originally imagined, or maybe it won't. In the meantime, I don't want to wait for the "perfect" context to meet you.

​

Running my own practice is a deeply rewarding experience, and sometimes it can feel lonely or overwhelming. I enjoy the freedom of having my own business, but there are aspects of agency and group practice work that I miss, such as having built-in consultation opportunities, a referral system, or simply a group of peers with whom to chat over snacks.

​

If you feel the same and you think we'd get along, I invite you to reach out.
