The Tended Circle
—— A Coworking Collective For Therapists
Where the work of healing finds community.
A weekly gathering space for licensed therapists who attend to their work alongside peers — think, reflect, and recharge together. The colleagues who truly know you are the ones who show up beside you.
Why This Exists
Community as a practice
Over time, something quieter and more lasting takes shape: a circle of peers who know your work, understand your challenges, and think of you when opportunity arises. Not because networking was the goal, but because genuine connection happens when people show up together consistently over time.
The Tended Circle creates that consistent weekly anchor — protected time, collegial presence, and the slow accumulation of professional momentum.
"The work gets done — but that's only part of what this space offers."
✦ Protected Time — A reliable weekly rhythm for attending to the professional side of practice, without it being swallowed by the clinical week.
✦ Collegial Presence — Working alongside thoughtful clinicians sustains a sense of shared professional life that private practice can quietly erode.
✦ Professional Continuity — Small, steady periods of attention allow projects, systems, and ideas to develop gradually over time.
✦ Organic Connection — The colleagues who refer to you and advocate for you are the ones who genuinely know you.
Who It’s For
Three Kinds of Clinicians Find Their Way Here
Therapists a few years into private practice who want a consistent rhythm for attending to the operational side of their work — the systems, the materials, the presence-building.
01 Early Practice Builders
Clinicians with professional ideas, writing, groups, or projects that benefit from protected work time and a room where those things feel worth returning to.
02 Quiet Builders
Therapists who value collegial presence and appreciate being connected to a thoughtful professional field — not isolation, not a conference, but something steadier.
03 Community Oriented Clinicians
How It Works
Show up for yourself, weekly.
Each week, a small group of licensed therapists gathers for two hours of focused, structured professional work. The rhythm is simple and the structure holds itself.
two hours · tended · every week
What You Bring
Documentation and administrative work · Website updates or professional materials · Planning groups or workshops · Professional writing · Organizing systems and workflows · Referral outreach · Any professional project that needs protected time
Group Size
Intentionally kept small at 10 licensed therapists. Enough people to create a genuine professional field; few enough that everyone comes to know one another's work.
Format
Weekly on Zoom. No camera requirement during work blocks. Consistent day and time each week so the rhythm becomes reliable
Membership
Simple, accessible membership
Spots are limited to keep the group intimate. Founding members lock in their rate for life — for as long as they remain in the group.

A Message From Ajen
Solo private practice is quieter than it looks from the outside.
There's no hallway. No staff. No one to catch your eye after a hard session. You close the door, you open the door. And somewhere in between, the work just keeps accumulating. The administrative tasks, the marketing, the things that hold a practice together but never quite make it to the top of the list.
Even with years of working alongside others in leadership teams, coworking spaces introduced me to something I hadn't quite found anywhere else.
I know the particular magic of them. Deceptively simple and yet quietly profound. Something happens when you let yourself be seen. When your work, your growth, your ordinary Tuesday afternoon is witnessed by people who understand.
We are practiced at witnessing others. Rarely do we let ourselves be witnessed.
The Tended Circle grew from that belief. We deserve that too.A small group of therapists, meeting weekly, doing the real work together. Not talking about it. Actually doing it, side by side.
And in showing up week after week, something else begins to happen. We witness each other. We become people who genuinely know each other. Not from a conference or a referral directory, but from being in the room.
That's where meaningful relationships actually come from.
That's what we're building here.
