    Hello and welcome to the 3000 Club!

    We are inviting you to connect, network, and successfully obtain your 3000 hours required for licensure. Our goal to help you build community, network with therapists on the same journey, and answer any questions you have about the licensure process. We are here to support you!

    We are now offering an additional meeting each month (every first Friday of the month will be virtual and every third Sunday "coffee dates" are held in-person).

    For this meeting in April, we are focusing on choosing the right supervisor for you. We'll highlight the significance of finding a compatible supervisor and how supervisors can contribute to your career goals. Feel free to come with any questions or concerns you have about your licensure journey and we'll process them together.

    Come with any questions or concerns you have about your licensure journey and we'll process them together.

    Open to all members and non-members, both licensed therapists and associates are welcome!

    For inquiries, please reach out to Emerald at eaueyong@gmail.com.

    We look forward to seeing you there!

      Calling all Asian therapists—licensed pros, associates, and trainees alike!

      Join us for a monthly community gathering designed exclusively to support Asian mental health therapists. This is your space to connect, recharge, and thrive alongside peers who understand your unique journey. You can expect to build a supportive network that uplifts each other while engaging in honest conversations about navigating life as an Asian therapist. Together, we'll build meaningful connections, foster personal and professional growth, and collectively uplift Asian mental health in the LA and SGV communities.

      Our April group is a special one! As we enter spring and settle into the new year, join us for a warm stretch and sound bath hosted by Elain, the owner of Pure Yoga and Pilates. You can expect a 20-minute opening discussion and 70-minute stretching and sound bath meditation session in a warm, candle-lit room. I'm especially excited to decompress and release some stress with everyone.

      A special shout-out and huge thank you to Elain from Pure Yoga and Pilates for hosting us and offering a SPECIAL PROMO to get a FREE FUTURE SESSION by either bringing a friend to your next visit or by posting on social media.

        Our topic this week will be Self-Disclosure. How comfortable are you with self-disclosure? What has influenced your stance? How much does it vary? What do you consider? How have attitudes about self-disclosure changed throughout the years? Has your own stance changed throughout your career? I would love to explore this with other therapists and learn what your perspective is.
