Pam Godbois, LICSW · For Mental Health Providers
You know how to hold space for everyone.
When did someone last hold it for you?
You didn't lose yourself
all at once.
You learned to leave gradually.
A quiet space for therapists, counselors, and social workers who are ready
to stop mistaking absence for peace — and find their way back into their own bodies.
If any of this is true for you —
You've cancelled your own therapy three times this month. You keep meaning to reschedule.
You meditate regularly and it still doesn't feel like it's working. You're not sure why.
The ordinary days from your childhood are mostly gone. You remember feelings, atmospheres — not texture.
Your self-care touches the surface of something without quite reaching it.
You know exactly what your clients need to heal. You are much harder to reach than they are.
Peace is a presence. Dissociation is an absence. They can both bring quiet —
but only one moves you forward. If you've been meditating daily and something
still isn't working, you may not be failing at presence.
You may be very, very good at leaving.
— On what the wellness industry isn't telling you
I'm not your next CE training. I'm not a self-care checklist or a wellness
framework built by someone who has never sat across from a suicidal client on a Tuesday
afternoon and then driven home alone with it.
I work with mental health providers — in bodies, in nature, in breath — at a sanctuary
in New Hampshire and in retreats around the country. What I offer isn't more insight.
You have plenty of that. It's a return. To sensation. To ground. To the version of you
that existed before the caseload.
This list is where I share what I know about that journey — and where you'll hear first
about retreats, gatherings, and trainings designed specifically for the helpers.
