What therapists bring to therapy
The things therapists bring me are human things, with a professional layer that makes them harder to set down:
Burnout and compassion fatigue that rest alone hasn't touched
Vicarious trauma from years of hearing what clients have survived
Old family patterns that light up with certain clients
The loneliness of being the person everyone brings their pain to
Anxiety about competence, licensure, or making a mistake
Grief, life transitions, and relationships, the same as anyone else
You don't have to arrive with a case conceptualization of yourself. You can show up as a person.
What's different about seeing a therapist who works with therapists
You won't have to translate your experience or perform wellness for someone who's impressed by your credentials. I know the field from the inside. I supervise clinicians, I teach graduate students as adjunct faculty at Bastyr University, and I co-host Recess for Healers, a creative self-care space for therapists and helpers.
Confidentiality gets extra care. The therapy world is small, so we'll talk about overlap at the start. If you're one of my current students or supervisees, or we share a close professional circle, I'll refer you to someone else, because a dual relationship wouldn't serve you.
We'll also leave room for the parts of you that are tired of being the expert. Many therapists struggle most with letting someone else hold the frame for a change.
You spend your days holding other people's hardest material, and you're very good at it. Then you get home, and the part of you that knows exactly what a client needs goes quiet when the struggle is your own.
I'm Logan Brantley, a licensed clinical social worker at Soul Works Healing, and I offer therapy for therapists, counselors, social workers, and other helpers over video in California, Texas, Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, D.C.
Why therapists need their own therapist
Your training doesn't exempt you from your own patterns. You can explain attachment, name your defenses, and teach the window of tolerance, and still feel your body brace the way it always has when your sister calls or a client cancels three weeks in a row.
Most therapists I know came to this field with a history of their own, often as the one who held the family together. You're probably good at this work partly because of that history, and the same history means the work lands in places no training program prepared you for.
How therapy with me works
Sessions run over secure video, so you can meet from home or from your office between clients. I draw on Brainspotting, expressive arts, somatic parts-work, guided imagery, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, chosen for what your system needs that day.
Body-based work helps therapists in particular, because you can talk circles around your own material. Sensation, image, and movement reach what insight alone hasn't been able to change. If you're curious how that translates to a screen, I've written about whether somatic therapy can be done online.
My fees follow a three-tier pricing philosophy of $160, $200, or $250 a session, and you choose the tier that fits your life right now. I'm out-of-network, I provide superbills, and I partner with Thrizer for reimbursement.
About my experience working with helpers
My own clinical path ran through group practice, a Child Advocacy Center, early-learning schools, and clinical outreach, so I know the different weights helpers carry. I hold an MSW with distinction from UNC Wilmington, completed accredited Brainspotting training and Integrative Somatic Parts-work Levels 1 and 2 at The Embody Lab, and I've completed the PhD qualifying phase in Expressive Arts Leadership at The European Graduate School.

Questions therapists ask
-
No. Many therapists come in when they notice the work is costing more than it used to, and starting before you're depleted gives us more room. If you are in crisis, I'm not available for crisis response, so please call or text 988.
-
I'll treat you as a person first. We can use shared clinical language when it helps, and set it aside when it becomes a way to stay in your head.
-
We'll talk about it in the free consultation. If the overlap is close enough to affect your privacy, or you're a current student or supervisee of mine, I'll help you find another good fit.
-
You need to be located in California, Texas, Virginia, Maryland, or Washington, D.C. during sessions. Fees are $160, $200, or $250 per session on my three-tier model, with superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.
