THE COMPASSION COLLECTIVE
FOR PROFESSIONALS
Gain clarity, confidence, & community in your work as trauma and sex and love addition professional.
You’re passionate about your work with complex clients, but at the end of the day you feel drained with no one to talk to who can really relate to the work you do.
You have made a solid investment in your education and training. You are doing specialized work that is meaningful and important to you and you feel really good about that.
At the same time, you often find yourself feeling drained by the heavy nature of this work and unsure of where to turn for more support.
While other colleagues are kind and helpful, they often don’t fully understand the nature of this work. You sometimes find yourself walking away from conversations feeling more misunderstood and isolated.
You are more conscious than ever of the fact that you cannot do this work in isolation. You want quality support from like minded peers who are also doing this work.
Within The Compassion Collective you will find this community of support along with knowledge, insight, and tangible resources to enhance your work.
The Compassion Collective for Professionals is a mastermind group for professionals treating complex trauma and sex addiction who want to expand their capacity as both a therapist and an individual.
Imagine if…
You were part of a community of therapists where ongoing personal growth and advancing your therapy skills were not mutually exclusive.
You could converse with other professionals who understand the challenging nature of this work so that you feel less isolated.
You could get feedback and direction on a regular basis that is specific to your cases so that you can quickly apply to cases in real-time.
You could deepen and refine your understanding of the many nuances of working with these populations so that you can feel more confident.
You could have real-time support in between sessions to check in or even just vent so that you can keep doing this work with a passion.
You could have access to new resources and content to use with your clients so that you can reserve your energy for holding space.
The Compassion Collective for Professionals was created for talented professionals who believe in the collective power of personal work along with professional growth in treating complex trauma and sex addiction.
MEET THE EXPERT
I’m a seasoned professional just like you treating complex trauma and sex addiction. My journey in this therapy space started out when I was assigned an internship at a residential sex addiction treatment center while in graduate school. I had no idea what sex addiction was, and knew even less about complex trauma. When I heard the first client’s story, it all began to make sense. Underneath the behaviors that got them into treatment was so much pain. I was immediately drawn to the work and had an entirely different level of empathy for the clients.
Fortunately, I landed a job at that treatment center after graduation, and could not have had better supervisors who encouraged, supported, and taught me. Later in my career, I realized just how crucial they were to my development (and honestly my sanity) in this work. To this day, I refer to them as my professional parents. Without their support, I would have quickly burned out doing this work.
I can’t imagine my journey without the incredible training opportunities, and the mentors who provided the right balance of skills, guidance, and support as I grew. I’ve seen so many talented friends and colleagues leave the profession due to a lack of self care and support. I’ve designed The Compassion Collective as a place to provide that so all of us can keep doing this amazing work!

"Marie is a therapist and human that stands out above the rest. Her professionalism and knowledge regarding systems perspectives, trauma, and addiction is remarkable. Her energy, drive, and compassion are clear and anyone would be lucky to be part of such a great program. We need connection more than ever as niched professionals and I see Marie is trailblazer in the field of therapy for providing this service.”
Ashley Rainey,

“I have known Marie for almost a decade now and in that time, she has become one of my most trusted friends and colleagues. Having worked with Marie in residential sex addiction treatment, I watched her grow as a clinician and truly answer her vocational calling as a therapist and healer. In many ways she is now a mentor to me personally and professionally. Marie continuously challenges herself and explores her interests and passions. Every time I interact with Marie, I find myself having gained a new insight or a level of peace and calm. Similarly, I have watched her provide compassionate and challenging care to her patients and witnessed the growth she fostered within them while they were on their therapeutic journey with her. Marie is gifted clinician who can offer nurturance and insight into almost any situation. With her specialized training in Sexual Addiction, the Post-induction therapy model, financial disorders, and somatic experience therapy techniques, she has a depth of knowledge that is unique and adaptable to many of life’s twists and turns.”
Kelly A Walch, MSW, LCSW, M.Ed., CSAT
You might be thinking…
Can I get my supervision hours for certification in this program?
What if I’m already certified will this program benefit me?
We all know that a certification and/or letters behind a name are not the true indicator of mastery of skill or expertise. I firmly believe that the best therapists are those who continue doing their own work on multiple levels. This work extends not only to additional training and certifications, but also to continued examination of the self of the therapist.
The Compassion Collective for Professionals is designed to augment your certification and supervision. It is for professionals who want to continue developing in order to offer the highest quality services to their clients. It is knowledge, training, consultation, and support all in one package.
If you are seeking supervision towards certification as a CSAT or CPTT, then the mastermind group can count towards your group supervision needs while also providing you the opportunity to continue with ongoing consultation post certification.
One portion of the program is training, but it is either more in depth on the topics covered in certification OR new concepts or topics that were not part of certification to help keep you up to date and relevant in the field. In the case consult portion of the program, you have the opportunity to incorporate this new knowledge into work with clients and get real time feedback.
The second portion of the program, and equally as important, is the personal growth and support. Members will have access to a private community where they can check in whenever they need to and receive support in the moment. I cannot wait for each of you to join and experience the collective energy, support, and compassion in the amazing work we all do!
