Who We Are
Curious Clinician is an in-depth discussion group for associate and licensed therapists to explore topics that we in encounter in our work together.
What to Expect
At the SGV-CAMFT Curious Clinician Groups you can expect a casual, interesting conversation with other therapists about topics that we encounter in our work together. When you leave a Curious Clinician group, we hope you have felt inspired and have made a friend.
When We Meet
SGV-CAMFT offers two Curious Clinician discussion groups every month. One meeting is held every second Sunday of the month on the East Side, either in Glendora with facilitator Joe Hovemeyer, LMFT or Covina with facilitator Joanne Guzman, LMFT. The second monthly meeting is hosted by Michael Mann, LMFT and gathers every third Sunday in Pasadena, CA.
About This Meet-Up
The topic this time will be "What do you do when in session and your client is racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, etc.?" Let’s share experiences, outcomes, and tools for responding to these situations in session. Maybe, we can include experiences had in session and tools used in session, regarding the state of our country, ICE, Wars, and politics.
Be sure to register early for headcount purposes, and we look forward to seeing you there! Registration closes the morning before the event.
