Grad School Doesn’t Prepare You for Everything.

You graduate. You’re licensed.

And suddenly you’re on your own.

Imposter syndrome creeps in, the support you had in school fades, and it can feel isolating trying to figure out what comes next. This is a common part of the early years of practice — even if no one really talks about it.

Support for New Therapists

from 0 to 5 years

New Therapist Network is a space for therapists in their first five years of practice. Whether you're just getting started, trying to feel more confident in your clinical work, or thinking about opening your own private practice, you're in the right place.

Being a newer therapist comes with a lot of questions, self-doubt, and moments of "am I doing this right?" Here, you can talk about all of it, learn from other therapists who get it, and find practical clinical tools, live workshops, and a community that makes this part of your career feel a little less overwhelming.

New Therapist Network (NTN) is a cohort-based community, which means we welcome new members every three months. If enrolment is currently closed, you can join the waitlist and we'll let you know as soon as registration opens again.

How the New Therapist Network Supports You

  • new therapist network

    Clinical Confidence

    Access a growing library of practical clinical interventions, with new resources added regularly, alongside replays of past workshops and ongoing access to future live events.

    You'll also find curated book recommendations and resources designed to support your real-world practice, help you build your skills, and feel more confident in your work.

  • new therapist network

    Professional Community

    Connect with other early-career therapists who get what those first years of practice are really like. Ask questions, share experiences, get advice, and join live peer consultations to talk through cases and challenging moments.

    We also host casual cohort gatherings over coffee or tea, where you can talk about burnout, self-doubt, difficult days, and everything else that comes with being a therapist.

    Professional Development

    Inside the Network, growth is supported through practical learning and real connection.

    This includes skills-based live workshops designed to be applied in real life, live chats and honest conversations about starting, exploring, and navigating private practice, as well as events focused on clinical growth, marketing, and the business side of being a therapist.

Is the New Therapist Network Right for You?

NTN is for therapists in their first 0–5 years of practice, whether you're already seeing clients, figuring out how to start your own private practice, or making the move from working for someone else to working independently.

You don't have to have it all figured out. We're here for the questions, the learning curves, the wins, and all the messy bits in between.

This space is designed for:

  • Early-career therapists in their first five years of practice, including practicum students

  • Newly qualified therapists finding their footing

  • Therapists considering starting their own private practice

  • Therapists navigating the transition into independent practice

  • Clinicians looking for practical tools, peer support, and a community of people who understand this stage of their career

It may not be the right fit if you’re looking for:

  • A replacement for clinical supervision

  • A certification or formal step-by-step training program

  • Crisis support or clinical care

If you’re still a student…

New Therapist Network is a community for therapists in their first 0–5 years of practice, so our Monthly and Yearly memberships are designed for those who are already seeing clients, but we haven't forgotten about those still in school!

If you're a student, you can join us through our Resources & Replays Plan, where you'll find workshop replays, practical resources, and clinical interventions to support your learning and help you feel more prepared for the work ahead.

Built by Therapists,
for Therapists

The New Therapist Network was created by therapists who understand the gap between training and real-world practice, and what it’s like to navigate the early years without enough guidance or community.
