THERAPIST LAUNCHPAD PROGRAM

The Therapist Launchpad Program is a 2-month mentorship designed to support psychology students and early professionals in developing the skills, confidence, and mindset required to begin their journey as therapists.

Through guided training sessions, participants learn core counselling skills such as empathy, active listening, reflection, and therapeutic alliance building. The program also focuses on real-world preparation including how to conduct a first session, manage challenging client emotions, maintain ethical boundaries, and avoid common beginner mistakes.

In addition to skill-building, the program supports emotional and professional growth by addressing therapist self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the internal challenges many beginners face.

This mentorship aims to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-life therapeutic practice.
