Therapy for Therapists | Intensive Healing in California
Deep healing intensives for therapists using Brainspotting, IFS, somatic therapy, and KAP.
You've done the work. But you know there is still more.
You’ve spent years studying human behavior.
You’ve read the books. Taken the trainings. Invested thousands of dollars in continuing education, consultation, supervision, and your own therapy.
You understand attachment theory, trauma, nervous systems, and family systems. You can identify your protective parts. You know exactly how your childhood shaped the way you move through relationships and the world.
You’ve done good work.
And yet, there is still a quiet voice inside that whispers:
There has to be something deeper than this.
You know how to ground yourself before sessions. You know the importance of self-care. You teach it every day.
You take the walks.
You practice the breathing.
You make time for the baths, the exercise, the journaling, the retreats.
And still, you find yourself exhausted.
You wonder why imposter syndrome still shows up despite all of your experience. You question your decisions. You second-guess yourself. You push through your own sadness, anxiety, grief, and overwhelm because there are clients waiting for you tomorrow.
You know how to compartmentalize beautifully.
It’s one of the reasons you’re such a good therapist.
But at some point, compartmentalization stops working.
And that’s often when therapists reach out.
Finding your own therapist is hard.
As a therapist, you know that finding your own therapist can feel complicated.
You wish all of your amazing friends weren’t therapists because you’d see one of them in a heartbeat. But instead, you may find yourself trying to drive to another city, searching for someone outside your professional circle, or settling for online therapy because it feels safer to work with someone you don’t know.
But what you really crave is in-person presence.
You want to sit with someone who understands the weight of this work without needing you to explain every layer of it.
You want someone who gets what it means to hold trauma stories all day and then go home to your partner, your children, your friendships, and your own life.
You want therapy for therapists that doesn’t stay in the intellectual space.
You want something deeper.
Therapy for therapists is different.
Therapists are often very good at insight.
You can name the pattern. You can understand the origin. You can track the attachment wound, the protector, the nervous system response, and the family-of-origin connection.
But knowing is not the same as healing.
So many therapists reach a place where they intellectually understand their wounds, but their bodies are still carrying them.
You may know exactly why you feel the way you feel, but still find yourself exhausted, guarded, anxious, resentful, disconnected, or unsure of yourself.
That’s why therapy for therapists has to go beyond talking.
It has to create enough safety and spaciousness for the parts of you that have been managing, performing, fixing, and holding everything together to finally soften.
Therapy intensives for therapists
I don’t offer traditional weekly therapy for therapists.
I offer therapy intensives for therapists because I believe deep healing often needs more space than a 50-minute session can provide.
As therapists, we spend our days helping others slow down, feel, process, and make meaning. But when it comes to our own healing, it can feel nearly impossible to drop in deeply when we know the clock is almost up.
Intensives give us time.
Time to settle your nervous system.
Time to move past the part of you that knows how to “do therapy well.”
Time to access what is underneath the insight.
Time to stop rushing, fixing, performing, or explaining.
Time to be held.
Instead of meeting weekly and stopping just as something important begins to emerge, therapy intensives allow us to spend several uninterrupted hours — or multiple days — focused entirely on your healing.
This is for therapists who are ready to move beyond insight and into embodied change.
From therapist to healer
I’m Alicia.
For the first ten years of my career, I was a therapist.
I was trained. I was competent. I knew the frameworks, the protocols, and the interventions.
But it wasn’t until I began my own deep healing work that I moved from simply being a therapist to claiming my unique gifts as a healer.
A therapist is someone who has studied the material and understands the next step in the protocol. They follow the frameworks they’ve learned in trainings.
A healer is also trained and keeps the tools in their toolkit, but they are not simply regurgitating information or performing interventions.
A healer draws from their own lineage, intuition, embodiment, healing, and heart to guide the client back to themselves.
A healer facilitates healing and stays in right relationship with the deep responsibility of this work.
This is the kind of space I offer therapists.
Not more information.
Not more professional development.
Not another place where you need to perform insight.
A space where you can come back to yourself.
Who therapy for therapists is for
Therapy for therapists may be for you if you are tired of holding everything together while quietly feeling depleted inside.
You may be functioning well professionally while feeling disconnected personally.
You may love your clients and still feel exhausted by the emotional weight of the work.
You may feel guilty that you help others heal while still struggling with your own sadness, anxiety, fear, grief, shame, or self-doubt.
You may feel like you should have all the answers by now.
You may be tired of needing external validation, second-guessing your decisions, or backpedaling the moment someone pushes back.
You may be ready to stop rushing to fix everyone else and begin listening to what your own body, heart, and inner wisdom have been trying to tell you.
How I help therapists heal
I help therapists who push down their own sadness, fear, anxiety, grief, and exhaustion stop compartmentalizing and reconnect with their hearts and bodies.
In our intensive work together, I use a combination of Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems, somatic therapy, and when appropriate, Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy.
This work can help you feel calmer, more grounded, and more connected to yourself.
It can help you stop second-guessing your intuition.
It can help you move from shame to self-acceptance.
It can help you make decisions without constantly needing reassurance.
It can help you stop abandoning yourself when there is pushback.
It can help you reconnect with the parts of you that have been buried beneath responsibility, caregiving, professionalism, and survival.
The goal is not simply to help you become a better therapist.
The goal is to help you become more fully yourself.
Because when you are more connected to your own body, heart, intuition, and truth, you show up differently everywhere — in the therapy room, in your relationships, in your parenting, in your friendships, and in your own private inner world.
You deserve the depth of healing you offer others.
You spend your life creating space for other people’s pain.
You sit with grief, trauma, betrayal, shame, fear, and uncertainty.
You help people find their way back to themselves.
And you deserve that, too.
Therapy for therapists is not about fixing what is wrong with you.
It is about creating a space where the parts of you that have been carrying too much can finally be met with compassion, curiosity, and care.
You do not have to keep holding everyone else while carrying yourself alone.
If you are a therapist who is ready for your next chapter of healing, I invite you to schedule a consultation for a therapy intensive.
