Where we stop pretending we're good at holding space

THE WHY
Every modality has its gravity
and its blind spot.
No single orbit can see the whole picture.
The people you support deserve practitioners
who keep looking for what they can't yet see.
THE CONCEPT
A monthly online intervision circle for practitioners who support others through non-ordinary states of consciousness.
For the Itchy conversations
Different practices.
Difficult questions.
Hard-earned experience.
Brought into the same room
to sharpen each other.
THREE INTENTIONS
01
Peer support
A place where the people who hold space are held.
02
Cross-pollination
Facilitators, therapists, guides, sitters, coaches, spaceholders and ceremonial practitioners — different modalities, different maps, orbits crossing. Signal sent, signal received.
03
Accountability
Not just a space to be seen and heard.
A room where what you share comes back changed, sharpened, and carried into the spaces you hold.
ONE FORMAT
A
Threshold
An opening question. From boundaries to burnout, anything that touches this work.
B
Spiral
Cases, stories, exercises, pulled into orbit and put to work.
C
Field
No single school teaches the room. What's fertile emerges from what everyone brings, real, symbolic, imagined.
WHAT THIS IS NOT
Not another certification.
Not another sharing circle.
Not one voice deciding how it's done.
​The host holds the frame.
Structure. Themes. Process.
Not answers.
Breakout rooms. Paired exercises. Group work.
Real. Symbolic. Imagined.
If it happens in the work,
it’s material.
WHO'S IN THE ROOM
Practitioners from different backgrounds, united by a commitment to responsible practice
Facilitators
Sitters
Therapists
Guides
Spaceholders
Ceremonial practitioners
