Having a creative outlet is such an important clutch for so many of us who are still working in the corporate environment. Eventually, if you exercise your creative outlet long enough, it can turn into a side hustle and even a thriving business!I spoke with Amanda Reid in this episode, and she shared about her career as a physical therapist as well as how she found her creative outlet through the lens of calligraphy. Her creative outlet turned into a fun side hustle that gave her the courage to step away from a very stressful job in a clinic. She shifted to working a part-time role at a different clinic, allowing her to commit time to her own calligraphy business.Amanda is also the founder of the Calligraphers of Color, which started with her exploring the industry for other calligraphers who shared the minority demographic with her. She began with an Instagram page that she posted to regularly, and it has grown to over 13,000 members. She transitioned to a private FB group to encourage collaboration and promotion of minority calligraphers. While it's easy to monetize a creative outlet and a passion, it doesn't always have to be that way. If you have a creative outlet or a talent that keeps you sane, and that is a means of caring for yourself, you absolutely do not have to make it a business. You are allowed to enjoy creating without the pressure of monetization. Self-care is the underlying message of finding a creative outlet, and Amanda shares a handful of other tactics that she uses to prioritize her mental health, such as taking breaks from social media and focusing on her physical health. This episode is such a good reminder to us, as creatives and entrepreneurs, that you have to prioritize yourself. Tune in today to hear more about Amanda's creative outlet that turned into a successful business and about the creative outlets that she keeps to herself for her own enjoyment. I know you're going to love this episode and the actionable advice it offers!

Structurally, the fascia system suspends, supports, and enables all anatomical movement from skin to cells and everything in between. In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Darren and Kristin are joined by Stretch to Win founders Ann and Chris Frederick to discuss Frederick Stretch Therapy (FST) and its origin, how FST can be integrated with massage therapy and other bodywork, and what the future holds for FST. Ann Frederick is the creator of a manual and movement therapy and assisted stretching called Frederick Stretch Therapy (FST). Her technique was originally designed for professional football players in the NFL. It then evolved to the public to address common conditions of pain, movement dysfunction, and lack of flexibility. Ann directs her school of training in FST at the Stretch to Win Institute in Chandler, Arizona, and Toronto, Ontario. Chris Frederick is an integrative physical therapist/physiotherapist, lead teacher of FST, practitioner of Anatomy Trains Structural Integration, and practitioner of Taiji, Qigong, and Taoist meditation. Chris has specialized in providing manual and movement therapy for several professional dance companies—including the New York City Ballet—and for professional athletes. Former professional dancers, the Fredericks co-wrote the books Stretch to Win and Fascial Stretch Therapy, both in their 2nd editions. Chris also contributed chapters and other content for eight additional books, most of which are bestsellers in the categories of fascia, movement, and manual therapy. FST is based on original research completed in 1997 and 2017 and is scheduled for another study starting in 2023. The Fredericks are excited to share their experience and thoughts about the exponential growth of assisted stretching, what makes FST uniquely different, and how it is integrated with all forms of massage and bodywork to enhance results and success with your clients.   Resources:   Use code ABMP23 at stretchtowin.com to receive 15% off your next purchase.

Aloha and welcome to the Sobriety Rocks Podcast! Today we talk about Giving One Hundred Percent.Viola Davis said "Your ability to adapt to failure, and navigate your way out of it, absolutely 100 percent makes you who you are." Recovery has taught me that we aren't forgiven just because we promise to be good from now on. We have to earn our way back, and giving everything we've got, one hundred percent, is the price. My one hundred percent started with me admitting my addiction, then moved into a one hundred percent effort to go through all twelve steps while clean up the mess of my past life with everything I had. I didn't like it at first, but today it seems like a small price to pay to get to be whole again. Do 100% of the work with 100% of our effort for as long as it takes and we get 100% of the rewards. Forgiveness, understanding, peace, freedom, happiness, love, truth, hope, faith, community, light, joy, comfort, security, and so much more. The beautiful thing is, when we do one hundred percent of the twelve steps, we're provided 'the elements of a living which answer all our problems', and more often than not, given a life that is far superior to the one we had before. Today I choose one hundred percent. I want to be able to say 'I did everything I could. There was nothing more I could do. I gave everything I had, and my life is a reflection of that.'  How about you?We close with a brief meditation to bring us peace and freedom.Thank you for joining us. Aloha!Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

Aloha and welcome to the Sobriety Rocks Podcast! I'm your host Kirk Waterman, today we're going to talk about Failure Is a Springboard to Freedom John Wooden said "Failure isn't fatal, but failure to change might be"  When I was young, I did most everything with a full, open heart, not caring how well I did or what anyone thought of me... As my addiction grew, fear of failure began to limit my risk taking, and my life grew smaller and smaller.  By time I arrived at the doors of recovery, I was locked in fear, afraid to do anything that I wasn't sure of a positive outcome beforehand   Once I got to the rooms, I saw people closing the doors on their pasts and using them as springboards for a brighter future. I was reminded that those who don't take chances, risk failure, and put it all on the line, can rarely achieve greatly. So, I followed your lead, and took the lessons from my failures to create a new life.That life has not been what I thought it would be when I first arrived. It's been risks, rewards, success, failure, happiness, sadness, victory, loss, peace, freedom, and more contentment than I imagined. I never thought that everything I ever wanted, was on the other side of fear and failure.  Failure's important. We speak about success all the time. But it's the ability to learn from our failures that often leads to our greatest success. I know that's the way it's been for me…Failure is not defeat. It's a delay, a temporary detour, not the end of the road or a dead end., but most often, a beginning…  So I urge you, please do not be afraid of failure! Take risks and learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail. Both are equally important. If we don't take risks, we can't fail. It takes courage and risks to lead the life you want.  So please, dare greatly, fail greatly, find the freedom we all deserve, and live the life of your dreams!Today we close with a five-minute breathing meditation to bring us more peace and freedom.Aloha :-) Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

Waking Up with Treated Alcoholism and Addiction

For years I woke up, or came to, and had to treat my alcoholism and addiction. I'd treat it with booze, drugs, tobacco, food, sex, gambling, and anything else I could find. If you had it, I'd do it! Then one day everything stopped working, the pain became too much to bear, and I was driven to the ‘joy filled' rooms of recovery. It was here I first learned that every day I wake up with untreated alcoholism and addiction. I also learned that one way or another I was going to have to treat them. Thankfully, the people I met shared the tools they used to properly treat the conditions I had. They showed me how to use them consistently day in and day out until all my addictions were at bay, and I was free.  Over the years, I've had long periods where I've used the tools of recovery abundantly and consistently. Each time the result has been the same. One day I wake up with nothing but peace, love, and service in my heart and mind. I wake up with ‘treated' alcoholism and addiction.  Now mind you, this has never been anywhere close to a permanent state. But many times, after months and months of consistent meetings, reading, writing, self-examination, prayer, meditation, and immense amounts of service, I'll wake up totally free, with this ‘treated' alcoholism and addiction, day after day after day.  But then out of the blue, the day always comes, when I awaken with my mind in doomsday mode, ready to give it all up, with ‘untreated' alcoholism and addiction wanting to kill me once again.  Thankfully, whenever this happens, I take the spiritual actions I'd been doing consistently all the days before, and the addiction and alcoholism are once again held at bay.  Fortunately, or unfortunately, this is where I've been most recently. Untreated alcoholism is running my morning routine and I'm having to do significant amounts of work just to get grounded and centered, before heading out the door.  But, I have faith, that as I continue to consistently take enormous amounts of spiritual action, one day in the not-too-distant future, I'll wake up with “treated' alcoholism yet again. Totally free, with nothing but peace, love, and service coursing through every fiber of my being. Until then, I'll keep doing the daily work.

How many of us let fear keep us trapped in the past while we're worrying about the future? When I was in the cups of my addiction, I refused to acknowledge my fears. I had no idea that to escape them, I had to walk through my fears, rather than drink and use to keep them at bay. Then I met people in recovery who knew that fear was simply an opportunity to begin again. Only this time, using new tools, doing it more intelligently, and walking through them together.All these years later I know that fears are really messengers. There's a new opportunity, something I'm supposed to do, or something I'm supposed to learn. Rather than being afraid of fear, I let fear do its job.Once I recognize and identify my fear, I pray, meditate, write, and talk to people in my recovery crew. Then I do a little service and get the strength to walk through the fear so I can grow into a better version of myself.When it's all said and done, I say, "Thank you fear. Thank you for bringing my attention to something I didn't know about myself and for giving me this opportunity. Thank you!If fear is holding you back, know that every day is a new opportunity to overcome fear. We can build on yesterday's success, put fear behind us, and together make today an amazing day. That's the way life in recovery is. We close with a brief meditation to help us overcome fear. Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

Today we talk about, “You Have Arrived!”Charlotte Eriksson said “I will never lose the love for the arriving, but I'm born to leave.”   At the end of my drinking and using, I felt worthless, all my past glory was gone, I didn't feel like I belonged anywhere, and there was nothing left to celebrate.I was so desperate and damaged when I arrived in the rooms, that I listened to people with all my might, as if my life depended on it.  Thankfully, the people I met listened to me with all their might too. They made me feel important, like I had finally arrived.That acceptance, support, and love they showed me, carried me through the challenges of early recovery; especially taking the steps, cleaning up my past, and finding my place in this new community I had been dropped into.  As I look back over my years of sobriety, I see a bunch of different plateaus I've “arrived” at. But the brightest and most fulfilling, are always the ones where I was surrounded by the fellowship, active in the steps and doing as much service as I possibly could.   Wherever you are on your journey, jump in the middle of us and get busy! Then dream, create, be daring, be brave, but most importantly, be the you, you've always wanted to be and don't care about what people say. Because wherever you are, you have arrived…..Today we'll close with a brief, relaxing meditation.Aloha

After years of chaos and life-threatening situations, I wound up in a treatment center, grateful to have a moment to relax. I was astounded when I realized people there were celebrating their newfound life in recovery. All these years later, I know that my time in treatment doesn't just deserve to be enjoyed, it deserves to be celebrated! It was proof that the world was a good place, people help each other without wanting anything in return, and that I could heal my brokenness and I too cold live a life worth celebrating. It was in treatment I learned to quit waiting for others to make my life beautiful, to smile even when we have nothing to celebrate, and to surround myself with people who did celebrate life. I also learned to celebrate myself, stay positive, and remember that each clean and sober day in recovery is a reason to celebrate.If you're listening to this, I encourage you to celebrate your life today! There's much to celebrate! Besides, you never know when your celebration will be the light someone else needs to help them get through their darkness.Today we close with a brief meditation to regenerate, rejuvenate and restore.Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

Many of us lead wild and reckless lives with no direction when we were running the streets drinking and using. Sure, we had lots of fun times, but the truth was, as our disease progressed, we often got further and further from the life we really wanted.Then the day came when we were finally hit with a big dose of humility and our self-indulgent adventures finally came to an end.Thankfully, addiction recovery provides us with every tool we need to successfully navigate the ups and downs of life without having to drink, use, or cause harm to ourselves or anyone else. It also gives us the strength to walk through anything put before us, be true to ourselves, forge our own unique path and build the life we always wanted to have. If you're listening this today, know there will always be obstacles and challenges that stand in our way. But, when we're truly committed, recovery provides us the spiritual strength and resilience to traverse any hazard we face and successfully touch the stars we never reached for while we were drinking, using, and running amuck. So please join us on the road less traveled.

After a long hiatus, the Sobriety Rocks Podcast from Recovery HQ is back. I had a close friend die due to addiction last August, then one of my closest, young sponsees died of a fentanyl overdose at the end of September. So, I've taken the last few months to grieve, reflect, regroup, and do the work to maintain my sobriety and rejuvenate my spirit.In this episode we talk about resolutions, or so-called new beginnings. Before sobriety most of my new beginnings only came about either because of some painful ending, or if I knew the outcome was going to be hugely successful before I even started.  But in recovery, I've learned that each day is a new beginning, and every day is a gift. No matter where we are in our recovery, it's never too late to become who and what we want to be. It doesn't matter how challenging your past was. If you're alive, listening to this, there's a world of new opportunities right at your fingertips.Today we close with a brief strength mantra meditation to help us successfully make it through anything we may be going through. Listen to learn that you're not the only one who's had to start over and that today's as good a day as any to begin again.  Access Free Recovery Resources: RecoveryHQ.com/Resources Use the Recovery HQ Meeting Finder Visit Sober Surgeries: SoberSurgeries.com Follow us: Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook Contact us: Support@RecoveryHQ.com or (800) 533-6166

In this episode, Dr. Waldman talks about the importance of marketing your private practice. Challenge yourself to promote your practice once a day. By the end of the year, some type of marketing will stick. Plus, Dr. Waldman speaks about utilizing the internet for your private practice marketing. Later, we talk about the various ways to increase your income. Dr. Waldman reveals how he grew his income significantly in his practice, allowing him a comfortable retirement. Meet Dr. Larry Waldman Dr. Waldman is a recently semi-retired certified school psychologist and licensed clinical, forensic psychologist in Phoenix, Arizona.  He conducted a highly successful private practice of 45 years working with children, teens, parents, couples, and adults in a solution-focused manner.  He also consulted with family, personal injury, immigration, and estate planning attorneys.  His BS in Education/Psychology was from the University of Wisconsin; his MS in School Psychology was from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee; his Ph.D. in Educational/School Psychology was earned at Arizona State University, and his Diplomate (ABPP) was received in 2003. Do Some Type of Promotion Every Single Day As a professional speaker, Dr. Waldman is accustomed to talking in front of large groups. How does he do it? Well, he thinks about what is the worst thing that can happen – exactly what he tells patients. When it comes to marketing, Dr. Waldman would make a point to promote his practice every single day. He would do a phone call, a podcast, an email, or something along those lines. It's essential to be persistent and consistent with things. Over the course of a year, you have several hundred things that you tried. Eventually, something will stick. That's how Dr. Waldman got himself into some lucrative situations. Virtual Private Practice Marketing The most significant trend in private practice marketing is the internet. A lot of young clinicians are finding value in marketing on the net. If you can get in front of a group of potential referral sources and speak knowledgeably to them, that's the best marketing in the world. They will view you as an expert and refer other clients to you. Marketing in private practice is more about helping people find you. Then, you need to know how to help them once they find you. The internet has completely turned the private practice marketing world upside down. People have to know who you are, where you are, and what you do. Earn Passive Income As A Therapist Therapists do noble work. They save marriages, and they protect people from suicide. Therapists deserve to be compensated appropriately for their work. Dr. Waldman started to develop passive streams of income. He earns income when he isn't sitting in front of clients. One of the ways to build income is by writing books. The first book that he wrote is titled Who's Raising Whom? A Parent's Guide to Effective Child Discipline. That book is still generating passive income for Dr. Waldman. In fact, you can find a copy of it here: https://www.amazon.com/Raising-Parents-Guide-Effective-Discipline/dp/0943247152. Dr. Waldman provides a simple, step-by-step process using basic behavioral Psychology to teach parents how to manage and modify their children's behavior more effectively. Increase Income Through Real Estate or Public Speaking Another way to increase your income is by public and professional speaking. Typically this type of gig is on the weekends and after hours. Luckily, it won't interfere with the hours of your private practice. Plus, you can sell the books at those speaking events. It's a great marketing tool for your private practice as well. Another way to increase income is by buying your own building. Dr. Waldman has nine renters in his building. He makes money from their rent. That way, when Dr. Waldman isn't working, he is still making money. Then, he uses that money to purchase other real estate investments. Now, Dr. Waldman is comfortably retired. Are You Trading Your Time For Money? Unfortunately, the majority of clinicians out there is trading time for money. They only make money when sitting in a chair and a client is in the other chair. You can make a decent living doing this type of work. If you trade time for money, there is only so much time to work. The people who become wealthy are outside of this dynamic. You have to monetize your time. One way to do this is through group work. That way, six patients can be paying you instead of one. Some clinicians only do group work, you will be making a pretty penny, and it certainly beats the one patient per hour dynamic.

Setting Your Private Practice Priorities in 2022 | TPOT 210

The Practice of Therapy Podcast with Gordon Brewer

Play Episode Listen Later Jan 3, 2022 28:25


As we start the new year, I will give you some ideas around setting priorities and goals; it's a topic that I tackle at the beginning of every year. First, I talk about the importance of having a planner that uses good old-fashioned pen and paper. When we write things down, we tend to process that information differently. Plus, I talk about what exactly is a brain dump and how it can help you find clarity in your private practice. Later, I chat about the importance of knowing your numbers, getting your systems and processes cleaned up, and finding community on your journey. Why You Need A Paper Planner One of the things that I've been doing this past week is going through my planner. Writing things down in a planner rather than typing them out on our phones allows us to process information differently. It forces us to slow down, think, and process what is going on in our minds. There's that brain-hand connection that is made; if you write something out, you have a way of remembering it and processing it differently. That's why I love to use a paper-based planner. Overall, it helps me stay productive and organized. I use The Full Focus Planner. Check it out here: www.practiceoftherapy.com/fullfocusplanner. Start 2022 With A Brain Dump It's essential to write things down and think about the new year on paper. I like doing something called a brain dump, which is just really getting a sheet of paper, planner, or notebook. Then, write down everything that comes to mind that you want to accomplish, things that you're thinking about, and tasks that you want to do. It gets everything out of your brain onto the paper. The Full Focus Planner has something called Your Big Daily Three. You fill out the three most important things you want to accomplish for that day. Overall, a brain dump is a great way to set your priorities for the new year. Financial Deep Dive To Know Your Numbers One of the things that you've heard from me a good bit over this last year is the importance of knowing your numbers. If you're going to be successful in your business and your practice, you need to know your numbers. You need to understand how the money is flowing through your business and through what you do day in and day out. Doing a deep financial dive at the beginning of the year can give you a baseline for where you are now. Then, you can think about where you want to get to with your finances. I use QuickBooks to manage the finances of my practice. Make sure you know where your best income sources are coming from for the year. Plus, you'll want to know where you are falling behind. For instance, I discovered that we haven't been collecting all of our copays; it's something that we need to fix for the new year. A deep financial dive will help you find where your money leaks are. Finding Community On Your Private Practice Journey When we start getting isolated from folks, we lose a sense of community and support from others. Finding a community will help you get clear around your goals for your practice. Having a community and a group of trusted colleagues to bounce things off of goes a long way in helping you have some clarity. Plus, it will help you have some accountability with accomplishing goals and keeping straight with your priorities. I encourage you to find a community within your practice and daily life. A focus group is a great way to find community. That way, you can learn from others and bounce ideas off of each other. Fix Your Systems and Processes This Year Look at how you can fix your systems and processes. It's time to get rid of the deadwood. You can be outsourcing – it will be a much better use of your time. That way, you're not spending time on things that aren't going to bring you any income anyway. I want to shout out Uriah Guilford; he's the owner of The Productive Therapist. If you have more tasks to complete than hours in the day, Uriah wants to help you get things done. Sometimes you neglect your self-care and other essential items in your life when you're too busy with your practice. That's why Uriah likes helping therapists find world-class virtual assistants.

This episode reviews themes covered in the Practice of Therapy from 2021. A few topics have come up from the last fifty episodes or so. I dive into those subjects, including community, preparing for a worst-case scenario, updating your private practice, diversifying income, and using mindfulness in your business. Tune in as I talk about some of my favorite episodes from these topics and the most significant lessons learned from my guests this year. Looking At The Worst-Case Scenario During Covid, many of us had to think about preparing for the worst-case scenario. Most likely, you, your family members, or your clients have come into contact with Covid. So, many private practice owners started to think about what would happen to their practice if something happened to them. That's why I spoke with Judd Carlton; he is a financial advisor serving families, individuals, and businesses in Morristown, NJ, and beyond. We talked about why the sooner you start planning for retirement, the better off you're going to be in the long run. Even if it's just a tiny bit that you save towards your retirement, it's going to make a big difference! Judd Carlton | Retirement Planning In Private Practice | TPOT 179 Update and Refresh Your Private Practice One way to update and refresh your private practice is through your private practice website. My good friend and website guru Daniel Fava helped with my private practice website. He is from Private Practice Elevation, and I am so grateful for all of his assistance! This year we chatted all about the website redesign project that I have started, and we walked through the nuts and bolts of what needs to get done to take your private practice website to the next level.

Daniel Fava | Redesigning Your Private Practice Website – Part One | TPOT 169 Daniel Fava | Redesigning Your Private Practice Website – Part Two | TPOT 170 How To Diversify Your Income In Private Practice One of the things about being in practice, particularly if you're a solo practitioner, is that you can quickly reach a glass ceiling with your practice. You can expand your practice and create more income by starting a group practice.

Chris dives deep into the self-publishing process, including the importance of an outline, an editor, and how to navigate imposter syndrome. Chris Swenson | Self-Publishing For Therapists, Coaches, and Consultants | TPOT 189 Dr. Lani Chin joined the show to talk about the process of creating an app in order to increase private practice income. CE Hub is a tool for mental health professionals to store their continuing education certificates and track their units earned toward licensure. You can upload your certificates, and CE Hub will take care of the rest. We talk about diversifying your income, the importance of outsourcing, and the nuts and bolts of creating your very own application. Dr. Lani Chin | Creating An App To Diversify Private Practice Income | TPOT 196 Using Mindfulness In Private Practice Brett Hill, mindfulness guru, joined the show this year. Mindfulness is the awareness that arises from paying attention to the present moment. When you can harness the awareness that occurs, you can respond to reality in a new light. Brett explains the power of incremental growth and how it can change your private practice. Plus, Brett dives deep into how mindfulness can be a powerful tool for not only your personal life but also for your private practice. Brett Hill | The Power of Mindfulness In Private Practice | TPOT 203 The Importance of Having Community In Private Practice Community is critical during Covid, so I wanted to talk to experts about the subject. The Therapist in the Attic is a way for therapists to get honest with each other. Leah talks about how she created a way to connect with others in complex, uncertain, and stressful times. When you think about it, we are all somewhat "stuck in the attic." Leah chats about the varied experiences many of us have faced in these uncertain times. Leah Leynor | The Therapist In The Attic | TPOT 188 Plus, I talked with Ernesto Segismundo about having a community.

Accepting Insurance and Third-Party Payors In Your Private Practice | TPOT 204

The Practice of Therapy Podcast with Gordon Brewer

In this episode, I talk about some of the myths and misperceptions people have about being on insurance panels. I delve into this topic and let you know what I've learned about it from my insurance-based practice. First, I speak about the stigma around accepting insurance in private practice. If you accept insurance, you are just as valid and can be just as successful as private practice owners who are cash-based. Tune in as talk about the pros and cons of insurance panels, why I chose to be insurance-based, and where to start when you decide to accept insurance. The Stigma Around Accepting Insurance In Private Practice Many people are curious about accepting insurance and if they should or not. There is no correct answer. If you start to delve into your mindset and think about it all, it might just be something that you should consider doing. When you look at all that is out there, there are so many great resources around building a private practice. It seems like most people are encouraging cash-pay. There seems to be a little bit of a stigma against having an insurance-based practice. Many people say that you don't want to be controlled by insurance companies. If therapists don't have a cash-based practice, they're second-class citizens for being an insurance-based practice. I don't agree with that at all! In fact, my success comes from being insurance-based. The Pros and Cons of Being An Insurance-Based Practice There are a lot of pros and cons to being on insurance panels. Certainly, one of the cons of being insurance-based is that you've got to have more systems and processes in place. You've got to do more work on the front end to get prepared for insurance. You need specific systems when you start accepting third-party payors and being reimbursed by insurance companies for your services. The biggest con is that there is some work on the front end of being insurance-based. The pros for being insurance-based are that you've got a built-in referral source by being on insurance panels. I would say at least half the people that we find are from their insurance. In other words, they checked with their insurance provider first to see who would accept their insurance in the area. When making an appointment with us, people ask, how much does it cost? Plus, they ask if we accept insurance. That's why I wanted to be an insurance-based practice. People depend on their insurance, and I want to help those people. Ready To Accept Insurance? What To Do First Where do you start? Research your area to find out which are which insurance panels are the most prevalent. In my area, most people have Blue Cross Blue Shield health insurance. Another thing to research is looking at significant employers in the area. Then, check which insurance those companies use. Next, use that data to decide which insurance companies you want to be paneled with. Another thing to note is that when an insurance company offers you a contract, that's negotiable! Make sure to negotiate what rate you will accept. Systems and Processes Around Filing Insurance Claims Figure out your systems and your processes around filing insurance claims. If you're on insurance panels, you need a traditional way to send claims off. The best way I know to do that is through an electronic health record system. TherapyNotes helps my practice with this. It's a few clicks of a button to get your insurance claims sent to the insurance companies to be reimbursed. For the most part, insurance companies have a pretty quick turnaround for electronic health claim submissions. Within a week of sending off the claim, we are getting paid. There's a myth that you have to wait a long time to get paid from insurance companies – that's not true! So, make sure you have a way to submit claims and make it as automated as possible. Cash-Based and Insurance-Based Private Practices If you're not ready to be entirely reliant on insurance, there's a hybrid option! You can have a mix of cash-paying clients and clients that use insurance. Give people a choice on whether or not they want to pay for therapy through a third-party payor. Remember to set your full fee at a reasonable place; your fee needs to be your FULL fee. The insurance company will pay you what they pay you. Then, you write off the difference between the full fee and the contract rate. If they choose not to use insurance, you can offer a sliding scale based on family income. We don't go and check their income; instead, we go on the honor system. Ensure that the lowest rate on your sliding scale fee schedule is in the ballpark of your average reimbursement rate from insurance companies.

Brett Hill | The Power of Mindfulness In Private Practice | TPOT 203

In this episode, Brett Hill, mindfulness guru, joins the show. He defines mindfulness for us as the awareness that arises from paying attention to the present moment. When you can harness the awareness that occurs, you can respond to reality in a new light. Brett explains the power of incremental growth and how it can change your private practice. Plus, Brett dives deep into how mindfulness can be a powerful tool for not only your personal life but also for your private practice. Meet Brett Hill In college, I decided that the limits of what we can achieve and the quality of our lives are dependent on our ability to communicate well.  My degree in interpersonal communication combined nicely with my fascination for technology led to a career as a technical storyteller, author, blogger, and speaker for companies like Microsoft, Adobe and others. But I wanted to go much deeper, so sought out the best I could find. I've had the good fortune to study Hakomi somatic psychotherapy with the founder –  Ron Kurtz, Matrix Leadership group dynamics with the founder – Amina Knowlan, and meditation with the late Audle Allison. I taught meditation for several years and founded the Quest Institute in Dallas. Other influences include martial arts, contact improvisation, and training with Gabrielle Roth As a result of this unique background, I've come to believe there is no faster way to improve your communications and the quality of your life than being mindful during a conversation. The Language of Mindfulness is the distillation of many years of work and inspired a TEDx talk (2021), the book, and the class in development. I am available for podcasts, speaking, and coaching. If you have any questions, would love to chat. The Power of Incremental Growth Marketing yourself as a resource is a very different business than selling software or a mobile app. When you're selling yourself as a service, it takes an entirely different orientation. You need to add small pieces over time like social media, podcasting, and website work. Plus, networking is essential when you are selling yourself as a service. That way, you can be connected to the right social fabric. When you shift to private practice, you have to learn how to run your business differently. Improve Your Professional Life With Mindfulness Mindfulness is the number one thing you can do to improve your personal and professional life. If you want to lift your life's quality, learning to be mindful will change your brain matter. Through mindfulness, your prefrontal cortex actually gains more material. That material in your brain is going to make your world a lot easier than it is today. You will be calmer, more resilient, and you will have a lot more choices than you did before. It's time to teach yourself how to slow things down enough to be mindful. You can learn this over time; it's a skill! Saving Time By Using The Power of Mindfulness If you don't have time to learn about mindfulness, then you really need to practice it! Would you rather spend 20 minutes getting something done frantically and get it done to 70% of your capacity? Or would you rather spend 20 minutes getting something done and be calmer and do it better? You might even do it in 15 minutes. With mindfulness, you can save time doing your tasks. More importantly, you will have a better quality of life. What's the point of being busy? If you're always busy, your life is going to be over before you know it. The Basics Behind Mindfulness First, Brett will teach clients about mindfulness. Most people don't know what mindfulness means or what it looks like. Brett will tell clients how to separate their thoughts and identity; once you can do this, it's pure magic. You can't read a book about mindfulness and understand it. Instead, it would help if you practiced mindfulness. We have a choice about what voice we listen to in our heads. Think about how your inner critic is taking over your thoughts and behaviors. The practice of mindfulness is responding to which voice we listen to. The Formula To Find Your Niche Brett has built his niche around mindfulness. He will show up on people's podcasts and talk about mindfulness, explain how it works, and even demonstrate. This routine has established Brett as an expert in this field. So, when people discover Brett, they find him in the context of mindfulness and mindful communication. It's important to frame yourself as an expert on some topic and have a lot of referenceable material. A niche is about having an identity and being an expert at said identity.     Being transparent… Some of the resources below use affiliate links which simply means we receive a commission if you purchase using the links, at no extra cost to you.

I am lucky to have many of my good friends and peers join the show. Uriah Guilford, Jessica Tappana, and Whitney Owens are here for a casual conversation. First, we dive into the importance of diversifying your income. We open up about what it's like to run a practice as well as another business. Both isolation and imposter syndrome can show up for us; we talk about ways to overcome and navigate our limiting beliefs. Later, we chat about the importance of finding a community to build you up, make you feel confident, and allow you to be vulnerable on your journey. Meet Uriah Guilford I am a licensed therapist & group practice owner. I want to help you be more productive, profitable & happy with your business and your life. Basically, work less and get more done! If you have achieved any level of success in your private practice then you can relate to the following. You have more tasks to complete than hours in the day. You work super hard because you are passionate and want to grow. Sometimes you neglect your self-care and other important things in your life. Not so great right!? That is why I have built a team of amazing virtual assistants for practice owners just like you! Hiring a virtual assistant in 2012 was one of the best decisions I ever made. It allowed me to double my business income without feeling like I was losing my mind. Actually, go on vacation and not be tied to my iPhone the whole time. And serve my clients better! It made such a massive difference for me and it can for you as well! If this sounds interesting, check out our services page and the most frequently asked questions we get all the time. Meet Whitney Owens I enjoy working with both adults and adolescents on an individual basis. I have experience working with those suffering from depression, anxiety, self-harming behaviors, identity formation, relational issues, and other mood disorders. I use a variety of therapeutic models such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy. I have been seeing clients since 2009 in a variety of settings. While earning my Master in Professional Counseling from Richmont Graduate University, I saw young adults at a residential treatment facility. In 2010 I moved to Colorado where I spent four years working at an inpatient and day treatment facility. Also while in Colorado, I joined a group practice and saw teenagers and adults. In 2014 I moved back to Savannah and started Water's Edge Counseling. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia and a member of the American Counseling Association and the Licensed Professional Counseling Association of Georgia. In addition to counseling, I also offer a number of other services including training and speaking engagements. Meet Jessica Tappana Jessica Tappana started her private practice on her maternity leave about 20 months ago. After filling up in only a matter of months, she decided to bring on other therapists as 1099s and transitioned Aspire Counseling into a group practice. Worried about how she would fill the caseloads of these new therapists, Jessica tried several different marketing strategies.  Ultimately, she decided to focus on getting her website to the first page of Google and began teaching herself SEO at nights after her kids were in bed. Slowly after gathering a couple of tips here and there, she got her website to the first page for nearly every keyword she targets.  Aspire Counseling has grown to now include five therapists and a virtual assistant! In fact, all of the therapists are nearly full, and Jessica hopes to find a few more quality team members in the months to come. Create Another Business For An Additional Income Stream A theme that people hear from me a lot on the podcast is how it's important to diversify income. Uriah, Jessica, and Whitney all run at least two businesses. There are a lot of unique challenges that come with owning multiple businesses. One of the great things about having two businesses is constantly waking up excited. If you're less excited about one business, at least you can get excited about your other project. However, having two businesses can come with a lot of stress, and people from the outside looking in don't get to see that side of things. No matter what, you can wake up every day and bring 'you' into that business. Battling Isolation and Imposter Syndrome In Private Practice As practice owners and business owners, it can get very isolating at times. So, sometimes imposter syndrome shows up. Uriah says one of the most valuable things for battling the isolation and imposter syndrome is feedback. Feedback is invaluable on your private practice journey. When you have people you can gain feedback from, you will walk away with thousand times more confidence. Everyone struggles with their business, so if you can hear other people's experiences, it will make you feel less isolated. Plus, this feedback will shape the future of your business for the better. Find Support No Matter Where You Are In Your Journey Regardless of where you are in private practice, you need support. Find a group of people that you trust to help you on your journey. Make sure you're comfortable with this group, and you can be vulnerable with them. The power of a group is having a community where you can share anything. As therapists, we all know the importance of group work and community. A mastermind group can be a powerful tool to uplevel your practice and uplevel your business. It will give you the confidence to keep working on your business and take the next step. Take A Risk, Get To Know Others, and Create A Community Private practice is hard, and managing people is hard. So, make sure to take care of yourself so you can have energy in your businesses. Get out of your comfort zone and meet people. If you're not already in one, create a community for yourself. Get involved and take risks in getting to know people. In general, therapists are pretty safe people. It would help if you weren't too scared to reach out to someone and get to know them.

Reflections From My Private Practice Journey | TPOT 199

The Practice of Therapy Podcast with Gordon Brewer

I learned a lot of things about starting a private practice the hard way. I'm grateful to share the lessons that I learned from my journey and help you not make the same mistakes that I did. First, I speak about the importance of knowing your 'why' on starting a private practice. Once you know your 'why,' other aspects of your business will begin to fall into place. Tune in as I dive deep into lessons learned around finances, marketing, outsourcing, and systems. Plus, I direct you to all sorts of resources that will help you on your journey. Thanks for being with me! Knowing Your 'Why' For Private Practice Why did you want to go into this profession, to begin with? Why did you want to go into clinical work, become a therapist, a social worker, psychologist, marriage and family therapist, licensed professional counselor, or whatever you are within this particular profession? Your 'why' is an important piece to keep in mind as you build your private practice. So, I invite you to think about your inspiration. When we get busy with business, we can lose sight of our inspiration, and eventually, we will feel a little burnt out. Private practice is hard work! We have experienced a lot of struggles because of Covid, so knowing your why is more important than ever. Private Practice Isn't For Everyone One of the things that you need is a sense of wanting to feed the creative side of yourself. We can all feed our creative selves differently, but is a private practice adding to your creative side? One of the things that you need to be successful in private practice is an entrepreneurial spirit. In other words, you need to accept challenges along the way on your private practice journey. I love to learn about the business side of things; it's what inspired me to start The Practice of Therapy back in 2016. I started this podcast so I could share lessons learned around the business aspects of private practice. Learning About The Financial Side of Private Practice One of the first things you have to learn about private practice is the money side of the business. I put together a course on teaching people about the financial side of private practice. When you go into business, you need to have some money to kind of back that up. A lot of traditional companies do it through investors. In other words, they get people to give them money for some return on that investment. When we go into private practice, we want to be self-sufficient. If you're interested in learning more about managing the financial side of your practice, check out my course Money Matters In Private Practice. Have Money Saved Before Starting Your Private Practice So, I started in private practice, doing it part-time and working for an agency. The extra income took the pressure off of me when I built my private practice. I wouldn't recommend diving into private practice unless you have enough money to back yourself up. I spent a year saving money, so I had a reserve. That way, if something happened, I had a buffer to protect me through emergencies. You need at least three to six months of income and expenses saved away before you jump into full-time. It will take a tremendous amount of pressure off of yourself. There Is More Than Enough Business For All of Us One thing that I've learned during the pandemic is that there is more than enough business for all of us. It's a matter of being able to put yourself out there and market your practice in a way that people can find you. That's all marketing is, is just making sure that you've got a website that is performing well and you are networking with the right people. If you are insurance-based, you need to be on the right insurance panels. I have a Facebook Live where I give all sorts of marketing ideas. You can watch the replay HERE. Keep It Simple When I first started my practice, I made my systems and processes much more complicated than they needed to be. So one of the things I would recommend is to keep it simple and don't make it overly difficult for yourself. People start getting worried about regulations such as HIPAA, state requirements, and all that. You don't want to do anything illegal and unethical. However, these fears can hold us back. You don't need to make things overly complicated. The bottom line to HIPAA is that we protect client information; that's something we do anyway in our profession. Make sure that you encrypt your equipment, and you encrypt your storage of documents. Please read my blog about HIPAA Anxiety In Private Practice. Outsource Your Administrative Functions In Private Practice People are reluctant to invest in things that are going to be a better use of their time. When initially starting a practice, therapists do too much of the work that isn't a good return on their time. For instance, if you're still returning phone calls to your clients and scheduling your clients, then you might want to outsource. Whenever I do consult therapists, that's the first place I start. The more you can outsource your administrative functions, the easier it will be for your practice. You can bootstrap and do these things yourself when you don't have a lot of clients. However, at some point, you will have to outsource it. I recommend outsourcing if you have ten or more clients per week. Think About Ways To Diversify Your Income There are only so many clients you can see in one day. There are only so many clients you can see in a week. One of the things that you will want to think about doing is diversifying your income. If you're going to increase your revenue within your business, many people believe they need more clients. However, it might not be a good return on the investment of your time. So, the next logical step for a lot of people is starting a group practice. A group practice might not be for everyone. You need leadership skills, and you need to enjoy working with other people.

We are the post-pandemic generation that gets to say, do we want to do work the way we used to, or are we going to create something new? Tune in as we chat about productivity, slowing down, and the importance of outsourcing. Meet Joe Sanok Joe Sanok, MA, LLP, LPC, NCC is the person behind the #1podcast for therapists, The Practice of the Practice. Joe has helped hundreds of private practice owners in growing and scaling their private practices. Joe has also been a mentor and coach for Gordon in his journey and inspired him to start The Practice of Therapy. Joe says, “In 2012 I launched Practice of the Practice to blog about what I was learning about business, marketing, and private practice. Since then, my income has gone up over 2,000%. In the beginning, I was making around $1000 per month. In 2015, I grossed over $200k! In fact, every month I post exactly what I made and how I made it. It's important to me, because we don't usually talk about money and how to make it in an ethical way. I want to increase your influence and your income!” Where Did The Seven-Day Workweek Come From? Where did the seven-day workweek come from? How do we understand just this concept of time to begin? A year makes sense: it's when the earth goes around the sun. Also, a day makes sense: it's how long it takes the world to spin. However, the seven-day workweek doesn't make sense. When the Babylonians over 4,000 years ago looked up in the sky, they saw seven essential things: the sun, the moon, earth, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter. With that, they said we should have a seven-day week. The Romans had a ten-day week, and the Egyptians had an eight-day week. We think that this seven-day week is just how it is. Well, we could have had a five-day week and had seventy-three of them in a year. The Industrialists Gave Us A Forty-Hour Workweek Fast forward to the 1900s; the average person was working ten to fourteen hours a day, six to seven days a week. There were protests around this – people wanted a forty-hour workweek. There was a national lockdown because they were scared that these protests and the uprising would spread. In 1926, Henry Ford said he would start the forty-hour workweek. Henry Ford wanted to sell more cars, and he knew people were not going to buy a car to get to work faster. However, if they had a weekend and wanted to visit their friends and family quickly, they would buy a car. The industrialists gave us this model of how to view the world. It's Time To Slow Down To Get More Done The research shows that when we slow down, when we're not maxed out and stressed out, that's actually when our productivity and our creativity go up. When we slow down correctly, we truly can do better work. You shouldn't check your email after your kids are in bed; maybe you shouldn't work as hard on a Friday, perhaps you should rein in some of those hard and soft boundaries. When you are ready to kill it, how do you do that? We can use neuroscience to inform the way that you work so you get more done. Gordon is a fan of using the Full Focus Planner. It forces Gordon to slow down, think about things, and process stuff in a different way. Most of us are on our phones all day. With the paper planner, we can focus more on what we are doing. Stop Getting Distracted From What Means The Most Whenever you are distracted from your business for one minute, that's one minute less you will get to spend with your friends and family. If you spend half an hour roaming the internet, that's half an hour you could be playing with your children. When you do things that distract you, you are really stealing time from the people you love the most. Often, when we get distracted, it's a lack of planning. If your day is sketched out, then you won't have time for distractions. Think about what is the highest use of your time. Make sure that you blackout time to get done what you need to get done. The Importance of Outsourcing In Private Practice Thursday is the new Friday which means you are giving yourself less time to do the same tasks. If you have 20 tasks in a week, and you give yourself 20% less time, most likely, you're going to drop the ball on some things. That gives you some critical data of what's essential. You're not going to do the fifteen least necessary tasks. Instead, you're going to do the fifteen most important tasks. It's time to outsource the things that you can! There are those things that are not a great use of your time that you hate doing that still need to be done. Find a virtual assistant who can take things off of your plate.

How To Structure Your Practice | TPOT 192

The Practice of Therapy Podcast with Gordon Brewer

Play Episode Listen Later Aug 23, 2021 43:09


One of the questions that I get asked a lot is just around how to structure your practice. So, in this episode, I walk through with you exactly how I have my practice structured. I talk about the process from the time we receive a client intake form to when we discharge a client and all the things that happen along the way. I speak about both the business and clinical side of my practice. Lastly, I make sure to point out all the software we use to keep our practice running as smoothly and as efficiently as possible.  How We Do Our Intakes In addition to the other clinicians working with me, we also have a part-time intake coordinator. The vast majority of people that come to us usually is through our website www.kingsportcounseling.com. In addition, we do get a fair number of direct referrals from doctors' offices and insurances. We are an insurance-based practice, and we get many referrals from people who find us in the insurance company directories. People will contact us predominantly through phone calls. At our practice, we use https://www.phone.com/. It is a modern, work-from-anywhere solution for today's agile, mobile, and always-on growing businesses. Our intake coordinator can use her app at home to answer phone calls. Usually, one of the first things you want to outsource is somebody to answer the phone. Keep in mind that it is great to have a system that is accessible from anywhere in the country. Setting Up Appointments In TherapyNotes The one thing about TherapyNotes that I love is that it's also linked to a clearinghouse. Since we're insurance-based, all of the insurance claims are filed through TherapyNotes. We set up the patient's biographical information, and we do our documentation; all of those sorts of things are completed through TherapyNotes. In other words, the whole clinical side of our practice is managed through TherapyNotes. However, there are some forms that we have in Google Workspace. When we have a new client, we send them to the TherapyNotes portal. They fill out all their intake paperwork, and we do all the billing through TherapyNotes.  Filing Individual Insurance Claims  Now, as far as filing individual insurance claims, I've got that outsourced as well through Practice Solutions. Practice Solutions make sure all the claims are ready to be sent in. Plus, they follow up if there are problems with a claim or if the insurance company rejects it. Both of these things can be very time-consuming; that's why I decided to outsource those tasks. If you have time to do those things, you can do all of that in conjunction with TherapyNotes. For my size practice, it's more cost-efficient to outsource those items.   What You Need For Online Therapy Each therapist within our practice sets their own schedule. They also are made aware of when clients owe money, or when we need to collect the copay. We follow up individually with each client about what they owe us, and if they owe a copay or not. TherapyNotes is a wonderful platform to handle all of this. Plus, TherapyNotes has a telehealth portal that can be used to do sessions with people. During Covid, we were using doxy.me. They make telemedicine simple and easy to use for both therapists and patients. The downside of the free version of doxy.me is that you could only see one client at a time. Another platform we used during Covid was Google Meet.  Valuable Tools That Make My Practice Efficient   For faxes, we use a service called Sfax. If we need to fax providers or fax things to people, we use that service. Sfaxenables you to send, receive, annotate, digitally sign and manage faxes without printing a single physical document. I use QuickBooks as my main accounting software. However, in QuickBooks, you have to be careful about not using client names.  I have a course out there called Money Matters In Private Practice. It goes into the whole accounting side of running a private practice.  Gusto is the payroll service that I use. I enter payroll twice a month to pay my clinicians. Plus, we can get our health insurance through Gusto. Everything syncs automatically — time tracking, new hires, benefits plans, and more.

Whitney and James Owens join the show to talk about the origins and usefulness of the Enneagram. They explain how identifying your Enneagram type will be beneficial in your life and the importance of understanding how this impacts your clinical work. Understanding relationship patterns within the lens of the Enneagram will allow the therapeutic relationship to thrive as the clinician helps the client or clients see their own personality within the relationship. Tune in as we chat about meeting treatment goals and having success in work and relationships through the Enneagram. Meet Whitney & James Owens Whitney Owens (MA, LPC) and James P. Owens (MDiv, MA) are helping professionals with a passion for empowering others. Whitney is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Private Practice Consultant. She is the owner of a group private practice, Water's Edge Counseling, in Savannah, Georgia. In addition to running her practice, she offers individual and group consulting through Practice of the Practice. She hosts a weekly podcast called the Faith in Practice Podcast to help clinicians start and grow their practices with a faith-based background. Whitney has presented multiple times at professional counseling and practice conferences throughout the United States. James is an Enneagram teacher and founder of Working the Enneagram, LLC. He received his Enneagram certification through the Enneagram Spectrum Training with Jerome Wagner. James holds a Master of Divinity, as well as a second Master's degree in Christian Practice. As both a pastor and teacher, James helps churches, small businesses, and other organizations understand how to utilize the Enneagram to positively impact their members and missions. James has been interviewed on several podcasts and has spoken to multiple groups on the Enneagram specifically in conjunction to counseling/psychotherapy practice and clinical work. Whitney and James have been married since 2007 and together they are the parents of two beautiful girls. The Importance of Knowing Your Enneagram Type You can spend many hours, days, and years understanding the Enneagram. One of the unique things about the Enneagram is it expresses the motives behind people's behaviors. As a therapist, we have to know ourselves to do good work. If you know your Enneagram, it helps you understand your motives in therapy. Whitney is Enneagram type 1, which means she is the reformer and is very controlling. When Whitney started as a therapist, she wanted to know exactly what to say at all times. Since Whitney knows that about herself, she found ways not to control the sessions and not to control her clients. Identifying Your Strengths And Weaknesses The Enneagram will help identify the motives behind your actions. In addition, the Enneagram will assist you in determining your strengths and weaknesses and identify the ways you behave when you're doing very well and the ways you act when you're not doing so well. The system is not static; it's a dynamic system. The Enneagram acknowledges that we all are different when in stressful situations vs. happy and secure situations. James is a type 5; he can take on a leadership role when he is doing well. However, under stress, James tends to move towards the characteristics of type 7. As you learn your type and discover more about yourself, you'll identify the directions that you go in when you're doing well and doing not so well. Using The Enneagram With Your Clients If you understand your client's Enneagram number, and they're sharing things going on in their life, then you can listen to where they're coming from to know where they're at. Clients might act like they're doing okay, but then they share something that's moving into other numbers that you know are not the healthy place for them. So, you can help clients bring their positive characteristics to the table. The Enneagram is a great way to evaluate your client's levels of emotional health. Each Enneagram type also has its own levels of functioning. As you become familiar with each type, you'll be able to see those characteristics in your clients. The Seven Deadly Sins For Your Enneagram Type Each Enneagram type has a deadly sin. So, you actually want to find the spiritual discipline that is the opposite of your sin. When you go into your root sin, you need to practice the opposite to find a healthy place. Here is a list of the deadly sins and what spiritual discipline will help you get to a healthy place: -      Type 1: Anger. You should practice serenity and letting go. -      Type 2: Pride. You should practice humility. -      Type 3: Deceit. You should practice authenticity. -      Type 4: Envy. You should practice balance. -      Type 5: Avarice. You should practice being non-attached. -      Type 6: Anxiety. You should practice courage. -      Type 7: Gluttony. You should practice sobriety. -      Type 8: Lust. You should practice innocence. -      Type 9: Complacent. You should practice action. Helping Clients Improve Their Relationships The Enneagram can allow you to help your clients with their relationships. The Enneagram is extremely helpful for marital counseling. Once you understand your partner's Enneagram, people can find a new appreciation and patience for their partner. When your clients understand their own number, it helps them understand how they interact with other people in their lives. Whitney says she does Enneagram work in her group practice. In fact, Whitney says they discuss their Enneagram types and how much they understand themselves during the interview process. Plus, knowing people's Enneagram types helps you appreciate your employees.

Is the traditional private practice a good fit for you? This episode is all about the different ways you can be in private practice and why it may or may not be suitable. First, Gordon explains what type of clinician would excel at private practice and how it can be a great challenge for most people. Then, Gordon dives into the four different ways to be in private practice as a clinician. Tune in for tips and tricks on how to start, grow, and expand your practice. Is Private Practice Right For You? Private practice isn't necessarily for everyone. It takes a certain kind of person to be in private practice. The number one reason people want to go into private practice is because of the autonomy that it gives them. Being your own boss and just working for yourself is appealing because it gives you a lot of flexibility in your time. However, it's not for everyone. Many people want to work for someone else because they get benefits, they're an employee, their income is predictable, and they may have a retirement plan and health insurance already ready to go. People that are in private practice need to have an entrepreneurial spirit about them. Private practice owners need to like the challenge of entrepreneurship. However, many people do not like the challenge and the risk that is involved with private practice. If you are interested in private practice but you're not interested in growing something big, then you don't have to. You can have a very successful private practice as a solo practitioner. Since Covid, it's possible to build just completely online practice. That's one model of private practice. Get the FREE PDF download- 4 Ways To Be In Private Practice.  This will help you compare the 4 different models. Working As An Independent Contractor Another model of private practice is putting yourself out there as an independent contractor. One way you can do this is through popular online platforms like BetterHelp, Talkspace, etc. When you sign up to be a therapist on platforms like these, you are signing up as an independent contractor. They will provide you with a platform, and they will provide you with clients. For some people, that might be very appealing. Even if you are an independent contractor, you are still self-employed. This is one thing that many people will get in trouble with because you still have to pay your self-employment taxes. Find An Accountant And An Attorney For people who are still going the full contractor route, form a separate entity for yourself like an LLC. Talk to an accountant and an attorney about your options. That way, you will have more protection. If you're contracting yourself out, you're just contracting out your LLC. There are different ways you can be taxed as an LLC, so it will be critical to get an accountant's opinion. Depending on how much you are making is how you should set up your entity.   Growing A Group Practice Another thing you should think about is going into a group practice. Maybe you're already a solo practice. If you love the entrepreneurial sides of things, leading people, the excitement of growing a company, and bringing on more and more people, then start a group practice. Whether you are thinking about a part-time contractor or bringing on full-time employees, there are some factors that help you know when the situation and timing are right.

Our guest today is Zev Suissa, the Chief Innovation Officer of eMindful, which is like a fitness app but for mental athletes… and those who want to be. Imagine having a digital menu in your pocket to call up both virtual and live mindful practices when you need them — kind of like Peloton for the mind. But, unlike apps like Headspace or Calm, eMindful is not strictly B2C. In addition to offering programs for individuals, the app is designed as a way for major corporations to arm their employees — sometimes 50,000 at a time — with workplace wellness tools and tools for creating intentional change. But first, the onus was on eMindful to prove to corporations how a mindfulness practice could actually affect a company’s bottom line. So over the past 12 years, eMindful has worked with universities like Vanderbilt and Duke to do peer-reviewed studies, which have shown that practicing mindfulness can help with things like: weight loss, diabetes, chronic pain, addictive behaviors, cancer recovery, and smoking cessation. And study after study shows that mindfulness both reduces stress in employees and increases productivity – ultimately saving companies an average of $700 per year per employee in healthcare costs! And the Global Wellness Summit’s most recent mental wellness economy research shows that https://www.globalwellnesssummit.com/trends-2021/ (this is very on-trend for 2021): the pandemic has caused a mental health tsunami, and as a result, meditation & mindfulness are emerging as one of four sectors in the new mental wellness economy. This is reflective of Trend #5 from the annual Global Wellness Trends Report: the renaissance of self care.  eMindful is also offering GWS listeners a special discount, which will give you access to up to 5,000 classes and hundreds of hours of on-demand content!

Colleen Hilton | A Marketing Mindset To Thrive In Private Practice | TPOT 163

The Practice of Therapy Podcast with Gordon Brewer

In this episode, Colleen Hilton joins the show to talk about our marketing mindset in private practice. Many therapists think that marketing is icky. However, marketing is actually essential to get clients the help that they need. The more effective your marketing efforts are, the better you can help the right people. Tune in as we talk about finding your ideal client and how Thrivelution can be a win-win for both therapists and clients. Meet Colleen Hilton Colleen Hilton is the founder & CEO of Acuity Counseling, Acuity Consulting and Thrivelution LLC. She is also a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist & an AAMFT approved Supervisor, with over 14 years of experience in the industry. Since 2016, Acuity Counseling has been providing boutique therapy services, with a retail-style model, making high-quality mental health available to the general public. With 3 brick and mortar locations and a strong online presence throughout the state via telehealth, Acuity is seeking to make a difference across all of Washington state. Acuity Consulting focuses on creating change in the business world by offering leadership coaching, and organizational mental health training. By supporting individuals and organizations in personal and professional change, believing in the systemic impact we will have together. Colleen co-founded Thrivelution LLC in 2020, amidst the unprecedented circumstances of the Covid-19 pandemic. Thrivelution is disrupting the current market space by throwing out the antiquated practice of directory style searches, focusing on the quality of matches, and demonstrating a return on investment for small business owners. Colleen is outspoken as a leader and educator on the business side of the mental health industry. She is active in coaching private practice owners, as well as new group practice owners, in how to align their values as a helper, with their role as a business owner to assist them in creating successful, profitable businesses. Personally, Colleen is a wife and the proud mother of two inspiring young women. She is passionate about warm weather (still missing SoCal), boating, and finding great food wherever she is at. Colleen loves people and making new connections, finding great joy in learning from others, and hearing the amazing stories every person has to share. Success Mindset Many therapists think that marketing is icky or too salesy. Colleen is working on debunking that marketing mindset for private practice owners. Instead, we should use marketing to create a mindset for success. Marketing and advertising get an awful rap in the mental health industry. We feel like somehow being a helper doesn't align with marketing and advertising, but Colleen honestly believes that our professional ethics require that we do beneficial marketing and advertising. Charge What You're Worth Your marketing mindset has a lot to do with finances too. If you don't have enough money, then you are struggling. How will that impact the work that you do for clients? If you can hone in on marketing, then you can market to your ideal client and attract the person into your practice. That is why it's essential to have an exact brand. Then, the feedback loop just starts to work in a beautiful way where the clients are coming to us. We can charge what we're worth! Market To Your Ideal Client When we do effective marketing, we reach our ideal client and provide the most qualified help. While on the other hand, if our net is too broad or there is no net at all, we can't help our ideal clients. Clients will not magically find you when you build a website. We should be practicing from an abundance mindset - there are many clients out there, and you really should be helping the people you are passionate about supporting. Colleen will reverse engineer her marketing. So, think about your ideal client and answer these questions: What do they do for a living? What gender do they identify as? Where do they hang out? What are their problems? How can you solve their problems? Then, start thinking about ways you can engage with your ideal client. We are not selling something. Instead, we are communicating the value that we have and how we can provide help. Marketing is the ability to help people find you. Potential clients are out there, and they are struggling. By using doing effective marketing, we can provide them the exact solution that they are looking for. Get More Clients Through Marketing What if your ideal client is out there with the wrong therapist? They have a terrible experience, so they visit another therapist. Yet again, they have a terrible experience. Sadly, this keeps happening to your ideal client. Eventually, they give up on therapy altogether. Now, their problems keep getting worse and worse. They are digging a hole for themselves, and they can't figure out how to get out. Maybe ten years pass by, and they finally find you. If you could find that ideal client ten years ago, they would be in a much different place today. Give your clients what they are looking for in the first place. When you find your ideal client, you help them, and they get to help you. Working with our ideal client allows us to be supported financially. When we are supported financially, then we can do our best work. After grad school, we have the hopes and dreams to open a private practice. Like any business, marketing is a crucial component to getting more clients. For therapists, it's no different – we need to practice effective marketing techniques! About Thrivelution Colleen stumbled with her marketing at first. She didn't know how to communicate with potential clients. She had referral relationships, the directory listing, yet she didn't find herself with the right clients. Unfortunately, when you don't have the right clients, then you need to turn them away. It's a shame for the client because they ask for help, yet they find themselves with a roadblock. So, Colleen wanted to know why there wasn't a "dating app" for finding a therapist. Clients should go on the app and ask for what they want. Then, therapists should advertise their services. We need a matching system that focuses on clinical fit. Thrivelution is an algorithm that will present options to clients and clinicians. That way, they can mutually agree to the relationship. Once it's a good fit, the clinicians can take it from there. Clinicians can build thriving private practices, and clients can find the best therapist for them – it's a win-win!

Daniel Vitalis has been on the show a few times before, but every time he comes back, I learn something new — and boy oh boy is there a lot to learn in this episode. We discussed the first season of Daniel’s new TV show — “WildFed” — the last time he was on the show. But now it’s out, I’ve seen it, and it’s fantastic. This is a culinary adventure series where you follow Daniel to eight different, extreme locales to hunt, fish, and forage wild ingredients, turning them into delicious meals. It’s a lot of fun to watch, and there are also HUGE director’s cuts that offer in-depth, behind-the-scenes looks for each episode. And you can use code LUKE15 for 15% off WildFed Season 1 + Director's Cuts at vimeo.com/ondemand/wildfeds1dc! A true hero of the wild world, and one of the few modern-day hunter-gatherers we have left, Daniel is the perfect guide for anyone who’s interested in getting a little wilder. Even if you’re not interested in learning to hunt, fish, and forage, Daniel can still help you live a modern life while staying connected to nature in a visceral way. There are few people more thoughtful about the environment and their role in it than Daniel, but it’s something we could all stand to get a little (or a lot) better at.   11:45 — Mimicking the natural world in the modern-day Pretty much none of us live in the natural world, and that realization is why I dedicated myself to biohacking The natural world is more than the sum of its parts I’ll escape to space while Daniel stays here to clean up the planet   16:15 — Where is the food industry at in 2020?

Starting in the 80’s, supplement companies began pushing massive protein consumption. We all believed that “more protein = more muscle growth.” But I’m here to tell you that IT’S A BIG FAT LIE. It doesn’t matter if you’re consuming 30 or 300 grams of protein — if you don’t have a sufficient supply of enzymes to digest protein, your muscles will be starving for those vital building blocks.

The cosmic MD, Dr. Ted Achacoso, is back!  Dr. Ted is the founding pioneer of the clinical practice of Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and one of the most inspiring human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking to. It’s rare to meet someone who can so gracefully pair being scientific, analytical, and intelligent with an expansive exploration of consciousness and spirituality, but when you do, you… well, you record a three-hour conversation and ask every question you can think of to explore the depth of human health and consciousness. From nootropics to making your own ayahuasca to the quantum field of consciousness, and a whole lot in between, it’s all in here.

Hello, cosmic cowboys and cowgirls. Are you ready to venture inwards? Because we have a fantastic new episode with Dr. David Rabin, a board-certified psychiatrist and translational neuroscientist who co-founded Apollo Neuroscience and one of the vanguards leading the revolution of wellness. Dr. Rabin co-invented the Apollo, the first scientifically-validated wearable system to improve HRV, focus, sleep, and access to meditative states by delivering gentle layered vibrations to the skin. It sounds pretty crazy, but I use it pretty much every day and the results are remarkable. And in this episode, you’ll learn all about the science behind why it works. If you want to try out an Apollo after listening to this episode, you can use code LUKE15 for 15% off at apolloneuro.com. But that’s not all. Dr. Rabin is also helping to organize the world’s largest controlled study of psychedelic medicines, and we really get into how psychedelic therapies can help treat things like addiction, trauma, and a variety of mental illnesses. This is a glimpse at a new paradigm of psychiatric care that is safer, more effective, and longer-lasting than our current pharmaceutical-driven system.  As someone who’s had a lot of experience with these issues in the past, and as someone who has had a lot of success healing with some of the modalities that Dr. Rabin brings to light, it brings me extreme pleasure to be able to share this information with all of you.   07:10 — Dr. Rabin’s exploration of what it means to be alive today, what it means to be well, and how he’s helping others achieve that ideal Taking a step back, as a doctor, to examine how well the treatment options available are working Why Dr. Rabin first became interested in treatment-resistant PTSD,  depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders My personal experience with psychiatric medicine   15:45 — The clinical use of psychedelics Psychedelic means “mind manifesting” When we talk about mental illness, we’re talking about patterns of behavior that we develop to cope with trauma or stress over time Looking at the brain on psychedelics using fMRI Luke’s experience with addiction Disrupting the neural pathways of addiction How shame and trauma lead us into addiction   33:20 — Getting to the root causes of addiction Getting sober isn’t the thing that’s going to make you happy, which is hard to deal with when you first get sober Hope is the most powerful medicine, although we give it a lot of different names We need a radically accepting and radically nonjudgemental clinical environment Human beings are the most adaptable creatures on this planet (that we’re aware of) The Four Pillars Using gratitude as a tool   56:05 — Using the Apollo We’re both using the “social and open” setting during this interview What it’s like to wear one of these devices There’s a lot of misinformation in the wearable device space Most of the things I try don’t actually seem to do anything How Apollo works My “junk drawer” for tech Tips for stress during this time   More about this episode.

You are about to swallow a giant red pill, my friend — but, first, I want to express my sincere condolences to anyone who has been negatively affected by the situation, whether through illness, financial hardships, loss of life, or loss of your former lifestyle. I also released a full episode all about my thoughts and a spiritual perspective on this hardship last week, so go back and check out episode 270. (It ends on a positive note, I promise!). This week, however, we’re digging into the possible connection between the coronavirus and 5G. This is a question that was first brought to my attention by Dr. Thomas Cowan in a couple of YouTube videos, which may or may not still be viewable thanks to the rampant big tech censorship going on right now. Then, if you try using that ubiquitous search engine to learn more, you’ll see results from the MSM going out of their way to discredit Dr. Cowan and mischaracterizing what he said. But why are they working so hard to silence this point of view? Who gains from trying to squash anyone who’s just asking questions, and what’s wrong with asking these questions in the first place? If this hypothesis is just flat out wrong and doesn’t include any medical advice at all, why does it need to be removed from every corner of YouTube and censored? So, as these questions were swirling around my head, I just had to go straight to the source and Dr. Cowan on a call. I’ve actually been a fan of Dr. Cowan and the powders he makes at Dr. Cowan’s Garden for a long time now, and I’ve been looking for a good reason to bring him onto the show — and I don’t think we’re going to get a better reason than this any time soon. 07:00 — The videos that made me start doing research Note that some of the videos I originally watched have already been removed and these videos may have been removed by the time you’re seeing this.

Maximum Meditation w/ NuCalm: The Ultimate Stress Relief System with Jim Poole #265

The Life Stylist

Today we’re taking a deep dive into stress: what causes it, how it affects us, and the various ways we can treat it. As someone who has lived in a huge city for a long time and who travels frequently, stress has wrecked me in various ways — but I know I’m definitely not alone. Gallup reports that 55% of Americans are regularly stressed during the day, and things just seem to be getting worse, as stress-related mental health issues are notably more common in Gen-Z than previous generations. So, clearly, this is a big issue, especially within the United States — but the silver lining is that we do have the tools and knowledge necessary to reduce those statistics. That’s why I was keen to sit down with one of the foremost stress experts, Jim Poole, President and CEO of Solace Lifesciences. Solace Lifesciences is a neuroscience company focused on personalized evidence-based wellness and performance. They created NuCalm, the world's first and only patented technology clinically proven to lower stress and improve sleep quality — without drugs. And by managing the stress response, NuCalm also helps with muscle recovery, healing, focus, productivity, and emotional balance. I’ve tried hundreds of different biohacks and technologies, and I fall off of most of them after a few weeks. But when I find a modality or device that’s this effective, I just become obsessed with it (like happily making myself look like a crazy person on the plane obsessed). I’ve used NuCalm nearly every day since I got one, and it’s really like meditating on steroids.   Interesting in trying out the NuCalm yourself? You can save $500 using the code “luke500” at NuCalm.com.   10:07 — What are some of the most common causes of stress? Everything in modern life causes stress The biggest culprits are technology, the increasing pace of our world, and our food supply Stress is an even more insidious problem than many people think, as most of us aren’t aware of the long-term implications of constant stress on mankind and our planet There’s a cultural issue with work in the USA, with people wearing stress as a badge of honor, but this does seem to be moving in a positive direction The epidemic of overprescribing our children When you’re a teenager, your brain is developing — and adding drugs that suppress the central nervous system is really dangerous What we can learn about stress from Provo, Utah   17:58 — The experience of starting to use NuCalm NuCalm has a cumulative effect How learning the mechanism of action behind a biohacking device helps with compliance I’ve been meditating for a long time and I can do it just about anywhere, but it’s crazy how different I feel when I combine my practice with NuCalm   20:47 — How stress affects your brain and body Self-awareness isn’t always enough to stop a stress response, especially when related to trauma What you should know about your amygdala, cortisol, and adrenaline Reacting Vs. Responding How your brain changes when you have a fight or flight response A perceived threat is just as real as a real threat to your brain and body Why focusing on mindfulness is the best thing we can do to minimize our unnecessary stress responses The intimacy we have with our own stress (and that we never share) Negative thoughts have a greater impact on us than positive ones The difference between fear and anxiety Why does stress wreck our digestion? What the Dalai Lama said about meditation Why is meditation so difficult for some people?   47:00 — The neurotransmitters that calm us down + what’s happening in our brain when we do GABA (gamma-Aminobutyric acid) is responsible for anything anti-anxiety occurring in your brain chemistry We’d die without GABA — but, weirdly, most people have never heard of it How stress creates disease and kills us Most of us will die from stress There are plenty of things we can use to temporarily alleviate stress by stimulating our GABA receptors (alcohol, opiates, marijuana, etc), but these short-term solutions often have long-term negative side effects What about taking GABA as a supplement? Or Kratom instead of an opiate? What is the vagus nerve and how does it regulate our nervous system and mood?   59:23 — How the NuCalm has evolved over the past 10 years + why the most recent version involves putting a metallic sticker on your wrist NuCalm’s 10-year product evolution The chemical messaging of NuCalm How governments classify some things as a drug vs. a food (even when it doesn’t make sense) How the metallic sticker (it’s a little more complicated than that, but that’s what it looks like) leverages cellular communication through frequency What biohacks can you stack with NuCalm? What shouldn’t you stack? (Hint: don’t use it near anything putting off strong EMFs)   01:23:40 — The neuroacoustics of NuCalm How do binaural beats work and what’s the difference between those and these crazy NuCalm audio files? How these audio files induce specific brain states Composing music with mathematics Why they use scales that most people never hear in popular music How you can use frequencies to affect people both negatively and positively   01:55:10 — NuCalm inventor Dr. Blake Holloway create a mathematical platform that can be used to train your brainwaves in a wide variety of ways — and they are working with people like Tony Robbins to create products that achieve different outcomes Ignite, the neuroacoustic audio track that can hype you up instead of chilling you out NuCalm is designed to help every person on the planet, but Ignite is much more specific Why they don’t want someone using Ignite until they make NuCalm a habit What happens if you use NuCalm in addition to alcohol or marijuana The difference between NuCalm and other products out there using sound, like HUSO, Brain Tap, or Alpha-Stim   02:10:28 — Why is NuCalm so helpful for air travel and jetlag? I would freak out if I left home for a flight without my NuCalm today The case studies they’ve done with pilots The wonders of the 20-minute power nap   02:19:20 — The future of NuCalm The launch of Ignite is imminent They will be releasing their first new track for over a year Why do we feel like we can’t take 30 minutes out of our day to take care of ourselves?

You eat well, hit the gym, and try to squeeze in a bit of self-care on the weekends. On paper, you’d say you’re pretty healthy! But are you really?!   Ruth Elnekave, CEO and Founder of the functional snacks brand JOYA, believes that the essence of health is not created by going through the motions but rather in finding the joy in nourishing ourselves even in small ways. The child of Israeli immigrants, food always symbolized family, connection and togetherness with Ruth getting an early start as her mother’s sous-chef by the age of four!   Ruth’s positive, food-filled childhood led her to train in the culinary school after college, but she traded in a career in the kitchen to practice corporate law. Burning the candle at both ends as a lawyer, Ruth’s lack of sleep and stress-inducing lifestyle led to severe adrenal fatigue and other health issues.    Now, after escaping the rat race and healing herself through powerful botanicals, functional foods, and plenty of rest, Ruth shares how adaptogens support stress, the most effective protocol for your adrenal system, specific foods to supercharge your health, why cacao is the ultimate superfood, and more!      Tune in and let Ruth empower you to slow down, nourish your mind and body, and find joy in savoring each sip and every bite!   Resources: Use code "Elise20" for 20 percent off all products on joya.ca Episode Show Notes Website: joya.ca  Elise’s Website: elisemuseles.com    Follow Elise on Instagram: @kaleandchocolate

It does not heal or cure any kind of chronic illness, but it can be beneficial for individuals suffering from chronic illnesses and chronic pain.

[21:43] – Dr. Ryan explains the difference between a psychological assessment and a neuro-psychological assessment.

[25:21] – An attendee that has two children on medication asks how likely it is that her children will grow out of the need for medication for their ADHD. Kaplan provides a general answer for this question. He talks about why children in school situations require medication at that time, but may not require it later in life. [29:00] – I share some research findings that show that teenagers that are “forced” to be on medication by parents are more likely to stop taking medication in their 20s than teenagers are given the choice to take medication.

[36:26] – A mother (with ADD) that has two children with ADHD asks if medication help her children learn the skills to not be as impacted as an adult.

One of her sons is not open to organizational strategies. She is looking for advice in this situation. The panel shares thoughts on this situation.

[1:01:00] – An attendee talks about how his life has benefited because of ADHD. [1:02:34] – An attendee that has a child with ADHD asks if it is normal to jump around between medications and dosages.

In this episode, I talk to paranormal magician Joe Diamond. We go into detail on publicity stunts and how to get the press to notice! We also have an interesting discussion on "Pay What You Want" pricing structures and he mentions an awesome resource that you probably already have but just aren't using! Joe Diamond is a paranormal magician from Chicago Illinois. Just in his twenties, Joe has been able to turn his fascination for the paranormal into a full time career and has an amazing understanding into the workings of the strange & bizarre, often defying the boundaries between what we assume can and can't be done. He was the youngest First Place winner of the “Close Up Magic Classic,” an award given in Colon Michigan, the Magic Capital of the World and now performs his paranormal magic all over the country for private parties, corporations, and theaters. Four years ago, Joe performed the world’s largest mind reading demonstration: completing a 33 acre cornfield maze while blindfolded, finishing in less than three hours. In fact, with his public demonstrations, Joe has been able to get more attention from the press lately than a good old fashioned Hollywood scandal. Magician Jay Sankey says it best” "Joe has great skill, a marvelous sense of humor and more energy than any other four magicians combined! What more could you want?"   Success Mantra: Dream like you'll live forever, live like you'll die today. — James Dean   Failure Story: Joe tells us about a specific "hell gig" story that he had to endure where he was getting paid too little for too much, and was generally just a horrible experience.   Favorite Success: Solving the world's largest corn field maze blindfolded!   Publicity!!! • Talks about his first venture into getting publicity. • Tips where he got his idea for the blindfold corn maze walk. Hint: It's Corinda's! • Putting different spins or angles on otherwise "classic stunts." • If you fail a stunt, the only people that will know are you and the reporter. And you can always find another reporter! • Getting the word out about your stunt. • Getting the photos and videos of your stunt. • Be safe! Do your due diligence. You don't have to do something dangerous. Joe has never done anything dangerous in his stunts.   Other Topics Covered • Always being ready. "What would I do if I had to do it tomorrow night?" • Touch on Joe's venture into a "Pay What You Want" pricing structure.   Publicity Consulting Joe offers consulting on publicity and publicity stunts.
