About this Event
Are you a therapist looking to build more community with other clinicians? Join us for a morning of hiking and connection with other therapists from Greater Los Angeles and the SF Valley. This is an "un-networky" networking event - our purpose is to foster authentic, human-to-human connections between attendees. So come just as you are - everyone is accepted and welcomed here! We'll meet at Franklin's Cafe in Griffith Park on Saturday August 10th at 10:00 AM. After the hike whoever is interested in continuing to connect with other attendees is welcome to grab lunch or coffee at Franklin's Cafe. More details are below - see you there!
When: Saturday, August 10th, at 10 am. We'll wait until 10:15 and then walk up to the Riverside trailhead to start the hike.
Where: Griffith Park. We'll meet at Franklin's Cafe (2650 N Vermont Ave). There's an outdoor area where we will circle up before the hike, which starts very close to the cafe.
Parking: There is street parking along Vermont Ave as well as a lot next to Franklin's Cafe. There is also another lot north of the Greek Theatre, which is very close to where we are meeting. Arriving early/carpooling with other therapists is encouraged as Saturdays can be busy in Griffith Park.
How long is the hike? We'll do an “out-and-back” hike to the Vista Viewpoint that is about 3 miles total. There is some incline throughout the hike but this event is more about connecting with other therapists than powering up the hills! We will take our time and take breaks.
What to wear: Something comfortable that you can hike in. Athletic shoes are recommended.
Who: Any and all mental health therapists are invited! This includes graduate students, pre-licensed clinicians, and licensed clinicians. It is an inclusive environment and we make sure that no one walks alone.
RSVP: Please sign up via Eventbrite so that we can get a rough headcount of who is coming.
Can I bring my dog? Yes - as long as they are on a leash (per Griffith Park rules). We love furry friends!
Can I bring a colleague? Of course, the more the merrier!
Want to grab lunch/coffee after the hike? Whoever is interested can continue to hang out at Franklin's Cafe after the hike - we typically have a group that hangs there until around 1:30 pm. If you are just interested in joining for this portion, we should be back at the cafe around 12 pm.
Any other questions? Feel free to reach out to Charlotte Haigh at [email protected] or 818-939-4978 or Ted Cohen at [email protected] or 310-697-2834.
Can't wait to see you there!
