video group therapy supervision & training group with kat zwick

  • Meeting Time: Will be determined with interested participants

  • Meets 3x Per Month on a Set Schedule with one in-person intensive weekend per year

  • Theoretical Approaches: Diversity, Equity & Justice Lens, Client-Centered, Family Systems, Relational/Psychodynamic, Intersectional Feminist, Process Groups from an Anti-Oppression, Anti-Coercive Framework. Additional interventions offered may include: Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Classical and Contemporary Psychoanalysis.

  • Kat is gender affirming, queer affirming, and neurodivergent affirming and works from within a justice framework. Kat also offers consultation and supervision regarding finances and other “administrative” aspects of group therapy practice, which often concern self-authorization, agency, the clinical relationship, and the boundaries we make clear to ourselves and our clients in our work. Kat considers themself an ethicist and assists clinicians in grappling with the application of ethics in psychotherapy with diverse populations and in diverse settings (small communities, disenfranchised populations, treatment centers, community mental health, etc).

  • Populations: Clients of all genders and sexual orientations recovering from/living with eating disorders, substance use disorders, history of family and group-based trauma, and dysfunctional systems; those living wih ADHD and AuDHD realities. Eating disorder consultation and supervision is multi-disciplinary care informed (medical, dietetic) as well as considerate of client bodily autonomy and is anti-dogmatic. Substance use disorder approaches are both harm reduction and abstinence based depending on client needs.

  • This consultation and supervision group is appropriate for group psychotherapists, including those seeking to become group therapists. Kat’s clinical ethic increasingly centers care for queer, trans and QTBIPOC individuals, which necessarily informs how they approach their work and consultations, regardless of the race of the client served.

  • Method: This group is a combination of didactic consultation and equity and justice oriented group consultation, often utilizing the group process itself to better understand clinical issues for groups as well as to formulate useful interventions. We look directly at matters of diversity, power and privilege in the training group, as well as in the consultation relationship, and Kat openly invites members with diverse backgrounds to share their expertise and strengths in this group in a collaborative manner.

  • Maximum number of participants: 8

  • Cost: $75 per person, per group, paid as a monthly fee.**
