The Reset Room is not just self-care.
It’s infrastructure.
Pelvic health providers receive extensive training in anatomy, biomechanics, differential diagnosis, and treatment techniques. What we don’t learn is how to hold our patients’ stories of trauma, shame, grief, identity, and pain. The stories they share in one of the most intimate clinical practices in healthcare.
This emotional labor is not incidental to pelvic floor therapy. It is built into the work we do daily.
And yet most clinicians are expected to carry that weight alone - unheard, unseen, and unsupported.
Traditional approaches to fighting burning focus on individual resilience:
Mindfulness apps
Wellness challenges
A reminder to “protect your energy”
While these tools may be useful, they place the burden of managing the emotional load of our profession entirely on the individual provider.
The reality is this: when a profession is asking for so much emotional work from its clinicians, the profession itself needs structures in place that help support the work being done.
This is where The Reset Room comes in.
We are not offering another self-care strategy to get added to a list and soon forgotten.
We are building a professional infrastructure that should have existed all along. A structured holding space where pelvic health providers can process the emotional impact of their work amongst colleagues who understand it, facilitated by licensed mental health providers who can guide the conversation in a supportive and productive way.
Infrastructure
changes that.
Our group sessions at The Reset Room acknowledge a simple truth within the pelvic health profession:
Pelvic floor therapy is relational, trauma-adjacent, and emotionally demanding. When clinicians regularly hear disclosures of sexual trauma, navigate deep body shame, support patients through reproductive loss, or witness the frustration of chronic pain, that experience doesn’t simply disappear when the appointment ends - it is held onto.
Without a place to process it, the emotional weight accumulates.
Over time, it can lead to compassion fatigue, emotional numbing, boundary strain, or leaving the specialty altogether.
Just as clinics invest in continuing education and clinical mentorship, emotional support structures help sustain the workforce of incredible providers who are doing this complex work. They allow clinicians to work through difficult experiences, maintain healthy professional boundaries, and remain present for their patients without sacrificing their own well-being.
In a 2024 study, Cakirpaloglu found that 46.24% of the healthcare workers reported high levels of emotional exhaustion which can be reduced by addressing stress and fostering a sense of personal achievement.
When clinics & organizations provide this sort of support, they send a powerful message to their team:
the emotional labor of pelvic health work is real, and it matters to us.
The Reset Room is designed to make that support intentional, structured, and sustainable — not something clinicians have to seek out on their own after hours, or even worse, ignore until the burnout consumes them and they quit.
Because supporting the people who provide this care shouldn’t be a luxury.
It’s part of the system that allows this incredible work to continue.
How does it work?
The Reset Room is a monthly membership that offers facilitated emotional support groups for pelvic health providers.
These groups create a psychologically safe, professionally aligned environment for reflection, peer connection, and long-term sustainability in pelvic health work.
What these groups are - and are not
These groups are a dedicated space to process the emotional load of pelvic health work with peers that understand the demands of the field.
The sessions held at The Reset Room
Are not clinical mentorship
Are not psychotherapy
Are not performance- or productivity-focused
These sessions are intended to provide a structured reset and holding environment for the emotional impact of providing pelvic health therapy.
Group Structure
Each group includes:
Up to eight (8) pelvic health providers
one licensed mental health provider to facilitate the conversation
The facilitator’s role is to guide discussion, maintain psychological safety, and help group participants manage the emotional layers of their work in a structured, supportive, and productive setting.
Sessions will be organized around common experiences and challenges in pelvic health practice, including (but not limited to):
Within these groups, providers have space to unpack the emotional residue of intimate clinical work, manage trauma disclosures ethically and sustainably, and work through grief, stagnation, and treatment plateaus. They will also learn techniques to establish or maintain boundaries, avoid countertransference, and manage somatic responses. The goal is for therapists to feel confident and supported in developing their professional identity and meaning-making in pelvic health for years to come.
Flexible Access
As a member of The Reset Room, participants receive unlimited access to group sessions.
This flexibility allows providers to seek support when they actually need it without having to wait days or weeks to process the experience.
Scheduling
The Reset Room offers a variety of session times to accommodate the schedules of busy clinicians.
Whether between patients, at the end of the day, or during a break in the week, providers can easily find a time that works within their busy clinical schedule.
