EMDR Group for Therapists
Providing Psychotherapy and Counselling services for financial trauma, in person at our office in Burlington and virtually online across Ontario.
Do You Feel Stuck, Underearning, or Burnt Out in Private Practice?
You are not alone. Many psychotherapists silently carry the weight of financial trauma—a legacy of scarcity, shame, overworking, or avoidance that shows up in their practice and business decisions.
You’re a therapist who helps others heal, but your relationship with money may still carry pain, shame, and avoidance. Many psychotherapists—especially those from marginalized communities—face unspoken financial trauma that interferes with the sustainability of their private practice.
As a helping professional and business owner maybe you:
- Avoid checking your accounts or charging your worth
- Overspend to relieve stress or underspend even when you don’t need to
- Overgive through sliding scales and feelings of burnout
- Struggle with internal beliefs like “wealth is morally wrong” or “money is bad”
- Feel activated by the instability of the economy and political climate
- Are stuck in survival mode, afraid to invest in your business or your future
If this resonates, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. You’re responding from deep nervous system patterns shaped by scarcity, trauma, and systemic oppression.
This EMDR Group for Therapists is a space to begin healing and unblocking your relationship with money—so you can stay the course, prevent burnout, and build sustainable wealth without compromising your values.
