Asian Therapist Community Group January 2025 - Special Interest Group (SIG)

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

Join us for a monthly community gathering designed exclusively for Asian mental health therapists. This is your space to connect, recharge, and thrive alongside peers who understand your unique journey. Together, we’ll exchange ideas, validate the challenges we face, and celebrate the richness of our cultures and identities.

I envision this group as a safe, supportive environment where we can build meaningful connections, foster personal and professional growth, and collectively uplift Asian mental health in the LA and San Gabriel Valley communities.

You can expect:

• A supportive network that uplifts and inspires each other.
• Real conversations about navigating life as an Asian therapist.
• Opportunities to explore self-care, resilience, and cultural pride.

Save the Date: February 22 @ 9:30 AM (location TBA, depending on interest).

Registration is limited to 12 participants to ensure meaningful connections. A waitlist will be available to gauge interest, and if there’s significant demand, I’ll explore hosting the next meeting in a larger venue.

FREE for Members; Non-Members $5. Registration preference will be given to SGV-CAMFT members. Registration closes January 13. No CE’s will be offered for this group.
