"I'm Not Your Therapist" Helping Birth Professionals Further Support Your Anxious Clients & Yourselves

Mon Jan 12, 2026 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM Madrona Physical Therapy, 98405

Your work is amazing and so are your clients! Ever feel like you are doubling as a client's mental health therapist when they come to see you? Or that your clients are not able to fully engage in work with you because of what's coming up for them, but it's outside of your scope? Concerned about how to have the conversation or provide a referral for therapy?

That’s exactly why Laura Meader, LICSW and owner of Crescent Moon Therapy, and Maggie Holland, LMHC, PMH-C and owner of Maggie Holland Counseling, PLLC, are hosting this free, down-to-earth training created specifically for you. Both specialize in anxiety treatment for women and understand what providers are navigating in real time. This offering will give you tangible skills and tips while also focusing on reducing burnout and compassion fatigue. 

In this 30 minute interactive session, we’ll talk about:

• Why clients get stuck in “yeah, but…” or reassurance seeking
• What anxiety and depression look like in everyday interactions
• How to gently name what you’re seeing without becoming their therapist
• Tangible scripts you can try right away
• When and how to make a warm referral
• How to stay compassionate while staying in your scope

We’ll keep it real, approachable, and very usable, because we know your time is precious.

You can also expect:
• Time to network with other birth workers and perinatal professionals
• Space for questions and real world examples
• Light refreshments and a welcoming atmosphere

This event is free, but seating is limited.
We would love to learn with you, connect with you, and help make your work feel a bit lighter.

Reserve your spot today. We look forward to seeing you there!
