Ignite Counseling Colorado is proud to offer this FREE Student Support Group for individuals enrolled in a Counselor Education Program in the state of Colorado.
Sometimes (Learning) Therapy is Awkward!
Counseling Graduate Student Support Group
Spring Semester 2025, Drop-In
Virtual (via Google Meet) | Mondays, 5-6 PM | FREE
Join a supportive community of peers on the journey to becoming professional counselors. Whether you’ve just started or you are a recent grad, this group offers discussion and support for the sometimes awkward [i.e. painful, messy, confusing] adventure of coming into this work.
Each week, we’ll explore themes from the book Sometimes Therapy is Awkward by Nicole Artz. Read along or come just for the discussion–either way, your challenges, struggles, curiosities, and triumphs are welcomed!
Sometimes Therapy Is Awkward provides refreshingly candid insight into what it takes to feel more confident and prepared to help others. This guide offers stories, jokes, and action-based solutions for:
coping with excruciating insecurities
improving clinical skills
navigating the workplace
setting healthy and effective boundaries
managing burnout and compassion fatigue
understanding mental health treatment in the modern world
This group is facilitated by Ignite Interns under the supervision of Hester Campbell, MA Clinical Mental Health Counseling, Licensed Professional Counselor & Approved Clinical Supervisor.
