Peer Therapy
UX Therapy · a Peer Therapy community

Connect with designers and researchers who get it.

Honest, thoughtful conversations about design and research are surprisingly rare. UX Therapy makes space for small groups to talk through real situations, decisions and questions together.

What designers and researchers bring.

These come up often.

  • What AI is changing about your role.
  • Stepping into a more senior role, and feeling like an imposter in it.
  • Getting feedback on your designs when you can't reach users directly.
  • Being the only designer, with many teams to serve.
  • Whether a move into product management is right for you.

Enough time to really talk it through.

1

Come as you are

Bring whatever you're turning over this month. Everything is fair game.

2

Talk it through

You share your situation with other designers and researchers who've dealt with similar things. They ask questions, challenge assumptions, and share what they did.

3

Leave with confidence

Sometimes it's a practical next step. Other times, just hearing how others see the same situation is enough to clarify what to do next.

5–7 DESIGNERS AND RESEARCHERS · 1 MODERATOR · 90 MINUTES

The conversation doesn't end when the evening does.

A month later, someone from your group asks how the new role is going. You tell them. They tell you about their move into product.

What they say afterward.

"Listening to others and finding that I'm not alone… it's amazing."

A few honest questions.

Is this clinical therapy?

No. It's a conversation among designers and researchers about the situations they meet in their jobs.

Do I need to prepare?

No. Come with something on your mind: a situation, a decision or a question is enough.

What happens to what I share?

What we share stays between us. How it works says what that means in practice.

What if there's no chapter in my city?

You can still ask to join and tell us where you are. If you'd like to bring UX Therapy to your city, we can help you start a chapter.

Are events in person or remote?

Events take place in person or remotely, and each one says which.

Can I join another community too?

Yes, you can request to join more than one.

What does it cost?

Each event has its own price, shown before you register.

Come meet your peers.

Bring a situation, a decision, or a question. We'll talk it through together.
