Welcome Therapists!


No therapist should feel alone. Let's be honest, no school can prepare us for all of the situations and clients we encounter. We can feel unsupported or even lost. Or maybe after years of clinical or administrative work we are feeling burnt out and need to reignite our passion.



Caring for others starts with care and support for yourself!


Dalena and her highly qualified guest instructors can help with practical, real life solutions and techniques. If you are are a mental health professional, you will find plenty of training, continuing education courses and resources to help your clients too.


Why I'm here to Help


I’m passionate about the power of healing and the magic that unfolds in the therapeutic setting. I see too many therapists trying to do it alone and without the real skills they need. It's not that they are "bad" therapists, but simply that they haven't been taught the perspectives and tools to really thrive in their practice.


That's why I offer a variety of services to therapists:


Consultation: for clinical cases, ethical issues, and being in private practice.


Continuing Education: On demand and in person courses, digital resources, and trainings.


Personal therapy: self-care, burnout prevention, trauma, life transitions and personal growth.


I provide a non-judgemental space to help you elevate your skills and explore how you can be your best therapist self. That’s why I’ve created a collection of courses, booklets, journals and custom workshops and trainings just for you.
