Importance of the SPACE Program 2025

The SPACE Program 2025 is an innovative initiative aimed at supporting therapists in their personal and professional development. This program emphasizes the necessity of self-care and self-discovery, which are often overlooked by mental health professionals focused on their clients' needs. It consists of six online sessions running from February to December 2025 and provides a safe and supportive environment for therapists to cultivate resilience and effectiveness in their practice. By creating space for therapists to engage with their own experiences, the program intends to foster a deeper understanding of themselves and their roles as caregivers.
