SUMMARY:EC: ALT Members Peer Consultation
DESCRIPTION:This is a chance for us to connect\, share stories\, and support each other in the work we do. Our group is all about creating a space where we can:\n\nLevel up our clinical skills: We’ll dive into case discussions\, swap ideas\, and pick up new techniques to refine our practice.\n\nHave each other’s backs: Let’s be real—this work can be tough. This group is a judgment-free zone where we can share challenges\, cheer each other on\, and trade helpful advice.\nKeep growing professionally: Together\, we’ll stay in the loop on best practices\, ethics\, and new trends that keep us at the top of our game.\n\nRunning late or need to leave early? No problem! Just show up when you can. We’re looking forward to coming together\, learning from one another\, and strengthening our work as a team.\n\nThis Peer Consultation group is only available to current Empezando Contigo Members.

SUMMARY:Networking con Corazón (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Join Us for Our Monthly Networking Event!\n\n**Meetings for April\, May\, June will be on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 6pm EST/3pm PST**\n\nOur networking group began in January 2020 as a space for Latine therapists in the Phoenix area to connect and support one another. What started as a small gathering has grown into an incredible community of over 100 Latine therapists from around the world.\n\nInspired by this powerful community\, Linda Ruvalcaba from Empieza Aquí Counseling founded Empezando Contigo: Association for Latine Therapists to continue fostering these connections. We now host virtual networking events every month\, along with expanding in-person events nationwide.\nThese gatherings are more than just professional networking—they’re about building meaningful connections\, supporting one another\, growing our referral lists\, and addressing the challenges our comunidad faces. We believe in decolonizing the networking experience\, so feel free to join however you’re comfortable: with your cenita\, vino\, cafecito\, or even from your car. No worries if life gets in the way—join late\, leave early\, or have your kids in the background. This space is for you\, just as you are.\n\nWe meet via Google Meet—be sure to download the app if joining from a phone or tablet: meet.google.com/shd-rgyq-bob\n\nLooking forward to seeing you there!\n\n**Meetings for April\, May\, June will be on the 4th Tuesday of the month at 6pm EST/3pm PST**
