Conversations With a Wounded Healer

281 - Cara Chae, Part 1 - Facing Doubts on the Road to Authentic Leadership


Listen Later

Cue the klieg lights and gift bags because THIS episode marks the seventh anniversary of Conversations With A Wounded Healer! Major thanks to everyone from the OG fans to the newbies. I couldn't do it without you, which is the perfect segue to today's episode.

Cara Chae, LCPC, is a psychotherapist at Inner Voice Psychotherapy, a group private practice in Chicago. She focuses on issues related to attachment (parenting, relationships, childhood wounds) and, more recently, neuroplastic symptoms. Cara also spent eight months as a member of my Authentic Leaders Group. I thought it might be interesting to explore some of her a-ha! moments and group experience on the podcast.

1:1 With Sarah

Wounded healers need supervision too. Sarah is passionate about fostering therapists' personal and professional growth through mentoring, supervision, and consultation.

Mentoring options are available for therapists who are looking for a transformative supervision experience and practice owners who are looking for customized support.

Supervision not only plays a crucial role in the professional development and ethical practice of therapists, but also provides parallel process for our own healing.

In consultations, Sarah helps practice owners align their business with their lifestyle goals. Together, we'll look at both the concrete business practices as well as the emotional stuff that complicates business ownership.
