This isn't networking. It's community.

Friends at Lunch

The Therapist Social Club exists for one simple reason: to create a supportive community through genuine connections. 

Not surface-level professional connections. Not transactional relationships. Real community—the kind where you can:​

  • Share the stresses, hopes, and wins of growing your practice.

  • Find colleagues who become the friends you text on a random Tuesday

  • Ask questions about running a business and learn from each other

  • Connect as whole people, not just as therapists with specialties to market

What we do:

Monthly Social Gatherings

We host casual, in-person meetups designed for one thing: getting to know each other as real people. No agendas. No pitches. No pressure.

Just therapists being humans together—sharing stories, building friendships, and creating the supportive community we all wish existed when we started private practice.

Our Story

The Therapist Social Club was founded by Deniss Pleiner-- a therapist in search of community. After feeling lost in endless email lists, faceless names, and networking events with fleeting connections, she decided to create a space that values connection and fosters community. 

TSC is not just another networking group -- our goal is to facilitate the growth of real human connections and support to help you succeed in whatever your goals are. From growing your solo practice or business to exploring other avenues of creativity and fulfillment. Sound like your kind of place? Join the Club.
