Your membership includes four meetings per month designated to consultation, support, and questions. It also includes a monthly goals/vision/accountability meeting for you to receive support and accountability around any personal/professional goals you have. Finally, it includes two co-working/office hours meetings per month for you to work on anything you need to get done (with the benefit of body-doubling over Zoom) OR to ask questions/receive feedback. All meetings are virtual.

Our weekly meetings designated to learning, consultation, and support are held on Fridays at noon CST on Zoom. We will add additional times as we grow- we are committed to keeping the meetings smaller and more intimate. 

Co-working/office hour meetings are held twice per month and dates/times vary - we provide a link to our calendar so you can see all scheduled meetings and access the links. 

Vision meetings are held once/month and dates/times vary.

You may cancel your membership at any time by emailing us at info@theconnectedtherapist.org two weeks prior to your renewal date to avoid being charged for another month (and so we can say goodbye). 

Jen Alley, LPC-S and Gillian Amaro, LPC-S will facilitate the groups. They each have 15+ years in the field. Jen's background is also in teaching/education. They both have spent time in the non-profit sector (Gillian has also worked in schools as a counselor) and both have private practices. To learn more about their experience and training, scroll to the bottom of the About Us page.

You will get 50% off of your membership for one month if you refer someone and they sign up. You can do this as many times as you'd like. You also can get a discount if you pay for a year of the Community + Membership instead of choosing to be charged monthly.

This membership is for fully licensed therapists and associates. Whether you have a private practice or are wanting to start one, we want to provide you with support and opportunities for learning, business development/support, and consultation.

It is important to know that while Gillian and Jen had schooling in play therapy and sand tray, most of their work and training is not focused on working with young children.

Both Jen and Gillian take personal and professional growth and learning seriously and are involved in their own therapy, continuing education, consultation groups, and trainings. We believe that growth happens in community!

Yes, you will receive CEs for meetings attended that are designed for support and consultation (there are four of these available per month). However, please note that Gillian and Jen are Licensed Professional Counselors and Supervisors in the state of Texas - you will need to see what requirements you have for your state/licensure.
