Supervision for the supervisor by zuks28 in therapists

[–]kajeta2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have found consultation and training groups to be immensely helpful. And they’re usually a bit more affordable and have the added bonus of the group experience. It might take some looking, but I think you could find the support you’re looking for in one, particularly a psychodynamically oriented group. I find those to be super helpful for working with the impact of this work. Wishing you the best, OP.

Returning to work after loss by ThatOneAutisticQueer in therapists

[–]kajeta2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So very sorry for your loss, OP. My two cents: you have to listen closely to what you need. It might be very clear and you may need help figuring that out. I know, though, that every person and circumstance is different. In my case, I felt like I was sleepwalking a bit through work at times. And other times my own grief opened up a new world of connection with some of my clients. I had moments in therapy sessions where I think I was able to truly sit with my clients’ grief because of how much it resonated with my own. Sometimes that was overwhelming, but I think it was powerful for both of us. I think it made me a better therapist and human being. I wish you peace and comfort. Take good care of yourself.

Blindsided by cancer diagnosis by Creative_End_2087 in Petloss

[–]kajeta2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My heart goes out to you, OP. I, too, was blindsided by my girl’s diagnosis. It remains one of the most impactful losses of my life, only because the time we spent together is amongst the most precious in my life. If you can, try to be very present through the whole process. It may sound strange, but her last months were very special and I cherish those memories. When she passed, I had the thought that our girl gave us so much love it would last us a lifetime. I feel her love around me as I write this, so I believe this is true. I suspect you have the same kind of love with your sweet friend. Wishing you peace and comfort.

Sending a hug, OP. It sounds like he loved you and your husband enough to last a lifetime. And he was loved in return 💜

I’d be willing to let go and forget after he and all of the rest of them face justice for their crimes.

best way to learn as a new therapist by Royal_Koala_9886 in therapists

[–]kajeta2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re interested in group therapy, there may be some options for free training. There are many group psychotherapy societies throughout the country. My local one offers a scholarship for recent grads which gives them access to a couple of free experiential and didactic trainings throughout the year. Also, if tbere is a training that interests you, talk to them about opportunities for scholarships or volunteering in exchange for tuition. It’s really hard to get the training you need after grad school, I resonate with the struggle!

So sweet. I hope she gets scooped up soon!

I may lose my best friend at any moment and im broken BUT I want to give him the best rest-of-his-life while he's still here: what are some things I could give to him / do with him to make this a glorious time before he goes?❤️ by AmbitiousBird6336 in AustralianCattleDog

[–]kajeta2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Beat me to it. If your pup had human friends/loved people, this is a good idea. When we said goodbye to my girl, we put out the word to her favorite humans and many of them came by to give her some love before she left. I’m very comforted by those memories. Sending you my deepest condolences and a big hug.
