A Circle for Practitioners
We Practice is a 12-week peer Circle for therapists, coaches, mediators, and social workers.
As practitioners, we hold the experience of others.
Why Circle
Most professional support puts someone at the front of the room. A trainer, a supervisor, an expert with an agenda. Circle doesn't. The form itself prevents hierarchy from creeping back in.
How We Do Circle
We speak only when we have the digital talking piece. You are always welcome to pass and say nothing, and you may speak as much or as little as you choose.
When you are finished speaking, you say "Pass," and the next person in order receives the talking piece and says "Received." We provide a talking order each week when the Circle begins.
We speak only from our own experience and do not respond directly to each other.
The Format
Circle Keepers
Circle Keepers, practitioners themselves working directly with clients in their own practice, bring the questions, hold the shape of the Circle, and sit within it as participants themselves. They are dedicated to the practice of Circle itself, creating the container for you to explore your own wisdom and expertise in your work, without the burden of your usual role as a practitioner.
Who This Is For
Professionals who hold space for others and want to share personal experience with their peers.
