Come on in. The water's warm!
A membership here for one reason: to SUPPORT YOU!
Why The Pond Began:
You!
Mental health professionals are burnt out, overworked, and are experiencing compassion fatigue at alarming rates.
We started the pond to provide you support where you feel alone. Our goal is to save you time, reduce stress, and empower you to focus on what you do best - Helping others thrive.
On Average, a Therapist
with a 25-client caseload, seeing clients for 50-minute sessions, dedicates 5 to 7 hours WEEKLY of UNPAID time to their clients outside of session.
A School Counselor Who
works a 40-hour workweek spends an extra 5 to 10 UNPAID hours WEEKLY on finding resources for their clients and the client's parents.
School Psychologists
are often stretched across over 3,000 students, and will spend an extra 3 to 8 hours a week UNPAID.
Unpaid Internships for
pre-licensed students further exacerbate the issue and may work 10 to 30 hours WEEKLY and WITHOUT pay.
This is not ok!!!
Let us help you give you your time back.

New Resources every month!
We believe that the best support is a wrap-around support system. The best way to help kids is to have everyone on the same page. Our parent guides and handouts help do that very thing. Oftentimes, you only see a kiddo for an hour a week... Parent/adult guides help solve the other 167 hours during the week.
Our resources are constantly updated to stay current with the times and needs of our members.
Telehealth Resources
Trying to keep an 8 year old entertained for 45 minutes is hard enough, let alone trying to make it therapeutic. These resources are designed to be engaging and helpful. Best of both worlds.
