By creating both a virtual and physical community, Work in Progress strives to cultivate a like-minded and diverse collective of mental health workers who embrace flexible work arrangements, rest, and opportunities for building their ideal practice. Work in Progress is committed to opportunities for teaching and learning (as well as unlearning) and offers peer/group supervision as part of
each practitioner’s contract.
We believe that good therapy should be accessible for all bodies. A rate reduction program for clients that simultaneously benefits the therapist has been developed
at Work in Progress. We are always open to collaboration and feedback. We are all works in progress.
