WE'VE ALL BEEN HERE, THE DIFFERENCE IS HOW LONG WE STAY
All it takes is one stressful client to make you question everything.
Stress, fatigue, boredom, dread... just some of the emotions therapists are feeling regularly. It doesn't have to be this way. The Stressed Therapist Training is exactly what it sounds like, training for the toughest stuff a therapist can deal with.Â
YOU DON'T HAVE TO FEEL THIS WAY ANYMOREYou start to think maybe the happy therapists just handpicked their caseload.
Â
You've been venting about the specific situations causing you stress week after week, but the dial isn't moving. Maybe you're hoping for a passive way out, or wondering if it's time to change jobs all together.Â
Even on good weeks, you can keep the dread, the stress, the fatigue tucked away until the session hour and then, suddenly, you feel how much it’s costing you.
Every time you need to confront something in session, your nervous system floods and instead of addressing it, you freeze.
Â
The reality is, the stress you’re feeling isn’t situational, it’s the skills you haven’t built yet.
Â
It’s impossible to handpick a perfect caseload because you never really know what a therapeutic relationship will bring until you’re in it.
The happy therapists have the skillset they need to handle whatever comes their way.
That means they can identify their difficult emotions, why they're happening, and what to do about them in session. They know how to have difficult conversations with clients and have empowered themselves in the art of therapist initiated termination.
Stop suffering. Learn the strategies that help you handle what needs to be done on your caseload. Implement them. Feel the freedom and relief that comes from competence.
I Want the Skills to Manage the Tough StuffWith The Stressed Therapist Training you'll get:
- Proven strategy for difficult conversations, when to have the, how to have them, how it feels, and what to do.
- Understanding of the emotions you're having. We break down what could be going on with the emotions you're having and what you can do about it.
- The priceless skill- the ability to end with clients. Therapist initiated termination is no joke, it's one of the hardest things therapist will ever face. Build the skill on how to end with clients that you are no longer able to work with.
- Manage resistance and challenging client situations. You will sigh a breath of relief when you realize what therapists can actually do with resistance and you'll be empowered to show up differently to your sessions.
All in Pre-recorded video trainings with visual support, downloadable reference sheets, and resource linking

When your the therapist, no one will save you but yourself. Your happiness in your career will depend on your ability to do the tough stuff, learn it now before total burnout.

Hi, I'm Kristen Leigh, LCSW
I'm leading the modules throughout the Stressed Therapist Training and inside this training is the valuable information I really wish I had earlier in my career.
Not every client's therapeutic journey progresses properly. That's just the reality. As therapists, we need the skills to verbalize what exactly is happening and what we can do about it.Â
If you’re here, I imagine you need to hear this: you are not trapped. You don’t have to stay in situations that are draining you or fueling burnout. Therapist-initiated termination isn’t easy, but it’s one of the most freeing skills you can develop.
As a therapist who’s learned how to do this well, I can tell you from experience: there’s nothing more empowering than knowing that, no matter what unfolds in your caseload, you always have options.
With supervision, we unpack the individual situations that are causing us the stress, but in the outpatient therapy job every situation will be different. What doesn't change is the skills, sills that prepare you for the road ahead.
Learn the skills that keep you from burn-outThe Stressed Therapist Training is designed to give you the freedom you're looking for, and fast
Â

LESSON 1Â
Difficult Conversations ($135 value)
Â
You need to do it. Get in there, and say what needs to be said. That's what you tell yourself every week, and then your nervous system deregulates, the nerves take over, and you don't say it. The pattern continues. Week after week. In this lesson, you'll learn the strategy for having difficult conversations. Whether that's because you're going to change up treatment, refer out, address the elephant in the room, etc (the situations are endless) but the reality of needing this skill is always going to be there. Save yourself YEARS of stress in this how-to lesson.Â
Â
LESSON 2
Difficult Emotions & Countertransference ($100 value)
Â
Why does this one client create so much fatigue for you in session? Why is it Monday but you're already dreading a session on Thursday? You've already heard of countertransference, this lesson builds on that concept in an advanced way, specifically for when you're suffering and you need to do something about it. Being able to correctly articulate to yourself and the client what's happening in the therapeutic relationship is priceless. Learn what to do with the difficult emotions when they show up (because they will)
LESSON 3
Therapist Initiated Termination ($115 value)
Â
Sometimes therapists need to be the one ending treatment. Most of the time, clients will disagree with this decision or might be very surprised by it. This can be one of the most stressful experiences a therapist will ever face AND it's a key skill to learn. In this lesson, you'll understand why therapists need to end treatment and the best strategies for doing it.
Â
LESSONÂ 4
Managing Resistance and Challenging Situations ($75 value)
The client's journey in therapy isn't unfolding properly. Learn how to spot the ways resistance and challenging situations show up in therapy and how to address them. Being an outpatient therapist comes with a lot of pressure to create movement and change, learn what to do when there are dynamics in the therapy space blocking that process.
