An Intentional Community of Mental Health Professionals

In-Person in Austin and virtually throughout Texas

Mental health is not a one-size-fits-all sort of thing. We offer providers a space to show up in their own unique ways while maintaining access to community supports & resources. So that they can provide quality & sustainable care. And so that you can find a clinician who is just right.

What We Offer:

Community

Collective members don’t have to do this work alone. Find meaningful connection, professional support, and clinical resources in community with other clinicians

Clients can know that their provider is receiving the professional resources to support sustainable practice

Autonomy

Collective members operate their own fully independent practices. Allowing the freedom to tailor their businesses to their unique needs

Clients can find the practice that best meets their needs in terms of approach, services, fees, and more

Authenticity

Collective members are encouraged to embrace who they truly are in their practice & express themselves creatively rather than adhering to a group culture

Clients can connect with providers who are the best fit for them and receive impactful & individualized care

Who
we are:

We offer independently practicing mental healthcare providers a space to be in community and offer their services without sacrificing their autonomy.

Our collective members practice out of our shared office in Austin, TX and have access to community resources like group consultation, professional events, and social outings.

Our Shared Values

  • Our providers prioritize ongoing training and utilization of trauma-informed practices and approaches to facilitate a safe & responsive space for survivors of trauma

  • All of your held identities are welcomed and honored. Our providers work to offer culturally competent care to members of groups who have experienced a history of systemic oppression

  • We believe healing happens in relationship and prioritize presence and attunement in the therapeutic space

  • We hold the larger sociocultural context within the work we are doing to offer holistic mental healthcare that attends to the individual and the environment in which they live

Why Work With a Collective Member?

Mental healthcare providers experience a significant level of burnout and attrition from the field, especially within direct client care

When going into private practice, many clinicians face the difficult decision of whether to sacrifice autonomy at a group practice, or to venture into solo practice with limited resources

Both of those options present their own unique challenges that often lead to providers feeling overwhelmed, underpaid, helpless, or alone

Within a collective structure, providers are not having to conform under a group practice and they are not all alone out at sea. It is an environment that is the best of both worlds. And one that we hope allows for clinicians to continue learning, growing, and developing as people and professionals

So that clients are getting the best care possible
