Clinical Consultation for Therapists

As therapists, we know the work we do is meaningful — and also complex, heavy, and sometimes lonely.

No matter how many years of experience you have, there are moments where you wonder: Am I doing this right? Am I missing something? How do I show up for this client in the best way possible?

Clinical consultation is a space designed just for that. At ERA, we offer consultation for therapists who want professional support, a sounding board, or guidance in navigating the challenges of clinical work.

Why seek clinical consultation?

Even the most skilled clinicians benefit from collaboration and perspective. Consultation is not about judgment or evaluation — it’s about growth, reflection, and support. You might find consultation helpful if you:

  • Feel stuck with a client or treatment approach

  • Want guidance on working with specific issues (like OCD, ERP, Brainspotting, reproductive or perinatal mental health, trauma, or couples therapy)

  • Need a space to process countertransference, vicarious trauma, or burnout

  • Are newer to the field and want mentorship in developing your clinical identity

  • Crave connection and support from another therapist who understands the work

What we offer

Our consultation is collaborative, practical, and tailored to your needs. Depending on what you’re looking for, we can focus on:

  • Case consultation and treatment planning

  • Clinical skill-building (ERP, EMDR, Gottman Method, perinatal/reproductive mental health, trauma-focused care)

  • Support in navigating ethical dilemmas or clinical “stuck points”

  • Balancing authenticity and professionalism in your practice

  • Guidance around practice-building and the realities of being a therapist in today’s world

The heart of consultation

Being a therapist can feel isolating — like everyone else has it all figured out while you’re secretly questioning yourself. The truth? Every single therapist has those moments. Consultation gives you a safe, non-judgmental space to share openly, ask questions, and sharpen your skills while also taking care of yourself.

At ERA Wellness, we believe great therapy comes from supported therapists. When you invest in yourself through consultation, you’re also investing in your clients.

FAQs About Clinical Consultation

  • Clinical consultation is a professional service where therapists meet with an experienced clinician to get support, feedback, and guidance on their cases, treatment approaches, or professional development. Unlike supervision, consultation is a collaborative process — you bring your expertise, and together we explore how to best serve your clients.

  • Supervision is typically a formal, structured requirement for pre-licensed therapists working toward licensure. Clinical consultation for licensed therapists is optional, ongoing professional support. It’s a collaborative partnership, not an evaluative one.

  • Any therapist can benefit, whether you’re newly licensed and building confidence, or experienced and looking for fresh perspective. Consultation is especially helpful if you’re working with complex cases, feeling stuck with a client, or specializing in areas like OCD, trauma, or perinatal mental health.
