I'm a vegetarian, but I could validate why somebody would choose to eat meat. That doesn't mean I agree with them. I just see the validity in their argument and I can focus on that instead of the part that I disagree with." - Caroline FleckCaroline Fleck transforms how we understand human connection through her groundbreaking validation ladder technique, revealing why most people feel unheard despite endless conversations. Drawing from her expertise in therapeutic intervention and behavioral psychology, she exposes the critical difference between simply listening and truly making someone feel seen. Her revolutionary approach helps everyone from suicidal clients to elite executives break through emotional barriers by focusing on one powerful principle: finding the kernel of truth in every perspective, even when you fundamentally disagree.The conversation unveils fascinating insights into mirror neurons and the science of mimicry, demonstrating how subtle body language copying can create profound emotional attunement between people. Caroline shares the exact mental game therapists use during sessions - a two-part riddle that transforms how you listen and respond to others. Her methods reveal why validation must come before persuasion, and how projecting genuine curiosity rather than judgment opens doors to meaningful influence and lasting behavioral change in any relationship or professional setting.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Today, we have a conversation with KATHERINE FABRIZIO, psychotherapist and author of ‘ THE GOOD DAUGHTER SYNDROME: Help for Empathic Daughters of Narcissistic, Borderline, or Difficult Mothers Trapped in the Role of the Good Daughter,' a book about generational trauma that lies at the intersection of good girl conditioning and difficult mothers. Drawing from over 30 years of clinical practice and her own deeply personal journey, Katherine is dedicated to helping daughters reclaim their identity and live their lives free from the invisible chains of their mother's expectations.  For many women, the mother-daughter bond is complicated by feelings of guilt, shame, and an intrinsic sense of duty. Katherine's expertise reveals how these dynamics often force daughters into the “Good Daughter” role, in which they're always focused on pleasing and never prioritize their own needs. This role, while seemingly noble, can lead to anxiety, depression, and a profound loss of self-regard. By blending clinical knowledge with her own story of breaking free from the expectations of a difficult mother, Katherine offers a unique blend of empathy, expertise, and empowerment that emboldens good daughters to reclaim their lost sense of self and become their own woman.

Megan's earliest memory is of being abused, and that abuse remained a defining feature of her childhood, along with significant neglect. She spent part of her childhood in foster homes, part with her grandparents, and part navigating her mother's mental illness and addiction. Her history is so traumatic that Renée can barely control her reactions (and, you know, she barely tries), but Megan is remarkably resilient and ready to sort out the horrors of her upbringing and the abusive relationships that followed. In the process, she and Renée discuss neurodivergence, intergenerational trauma, fragile egos, addiction, childbirth, and more - and somehow they do a lot of laughing. Megan has so much content, and she delivers it with stunning cycle-breaker spirit, making it that much easier for Renée to map out her path to healing. There is a lot to chew on in this one, and it leads to a gloriously happy ending. Plus, Renée answers some listener questions in the intro!Support the show

Are you ready to scale your therapy business but overwhelmed by the idea of hiring support? In this episode, I sit down with Leesha Woolery of Simply Supported to answer the most common questions therapists face when they're ready to stop doing everything themselves and bring on a virtual assistant (VA) or online business manager (OBM). We break down the differences between the two roles, when to hire, how to hire, and what red flags to look out for. If you're running a successful private practice and dreaming of expanding into online programs, this conversation is your roadmap to getting the support you need without burning out. Leesha shares the exact systems she sets up for her clients, the real costs of hiring help (hint: it's more accessible than you think), and how to build trust with your audience in today's skeptical online space. Whether you're launching your first digital product or just tired of juggling content, emails, and tech on your own, this episode is full of tangible insights that will leave you feeling clear and confident about your next steps. Topics Covered in This Episode: 5:11 — The unexpected difference between a VA, an executive assistant, and an OBM (and which one actually saves your sanity) 6:44 — The major green flag to look for when interviewing support staff—and the red one most people miss 11:16 — Why email marketing still matters—and how a good OBM can completely change the game 12:54 — The secret to building trust in a skeptical online market (hint: it's not flashy funnels) 15:05 — Why nurturing your list 80% of the time is more effective than constant selling 17:21 — Do you really need to make six figures before hiring help? Leesha's answer might surprise you 20:48 — How SOPs (standard operating procedures) make your business feel way less chaotic 21:02 — A free resource to help you hire with confidence—complete with interview tips and job post templates By the end of this episode, you'll feel less intimidated by the hiring process and more equipped to bring in the support your business truly needs.

Nicole shares the foundational systems she used to grow her practice to 55 clinicians and multiple seven figures while parenting toddler twins, and she makes a strong case for why systematizing must come before hiring.We explore how to shift out of the mindset that only you can do it all, why hiring an admin is an investment—not an expense—and how to ensure your marketing actually converts leads into long-term clients. Nicole also shares her tips for running effective consult calls, including how to shift your thinking about “sales” as a therapist, and how thoughtful follow-up is the key to retention.If you're tired of being the Chief Question Answerer in your practice, tune in to learn how to build a business that supports your clients, your team, and you.For a full transcript of the episode and much more, check out the blog post on our website! https://moneynutsandbolts.com/?p=17943 To watch a video version of this, check it out on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9A917R_hBPc Check out Linzy's previous episode with Nicole:80: Help More People and Increase Profit with Nicole McCance https://moneynutsandbolts.com/help-more-people-and-increase-profit-with-nicole-mccance/Mentioned in this episode:Want to work with Linzy?Check out the FREE masterclass, The 4 Step Framework to Getting Your Business Finances Totally in Order, where you'll learn the framework that has helped hundreds of therapists go from money confusion and shame to calm and confidence, as well as the three biggest financial mistakes that therapists make.

Episode 151: Why Creativity Isn't Optional Anymore for Therapists and Helpers (Season 5 Finale) What if your burnout is actually a signal that it's time to shift?What if the path back to fulfillment isn't more certifications or better time management—but more creativity, play, and aligned living? If you're a therapist, helping professional, or creative entrepreneur feeling burned out, stuck, or unsure how to keep showing up in this field you used to love… this episode is for you. In this solo season finale of The Innovative Therapist Podcast, I share what I've learned in Season 5—and in my own life—about why creativity isn't optional anymore. Not just as a bonus. But as a necessary part of sustainable, meaningful work. A Season of Alignment, Creativity, and Courage This season has been the most “me” the podcast has ever felt. We talked about creative living, storytelling, nervous system regulation, entrepreneurship, embodiment, and how to do more of the work that lights us up. And behind the scenes? I turned 40.I danced in a contemporary show.I choreographed a duet with my friend Allie about perfectionism and authenticity.I celebrated, rested, cried, and reimagined what I want to build. And most importantly—I listened.To my body. To my joy. And to the parts of me that still get scared when I try something new. If You're Asking “What Else Can I Do With My Therapy Skills?”… You're Not Alone. Many of us became therapists or helpers because we're deeply empathetic and want to create change. But somewhere along the way, you might find yourself asking: How do I keep going when I'm burned out? What other career paths exist for therapists like me? How can I use my gifts without sacrificing my well-being? Is it okay to want something different—even if I've invested so much into this path? I hear these questions all the time from folks in my community. And I've asked them myself. Which is why this episode is about offering both reflection and direction. Because creativity, when we make space for it, helps us unlock new answers to these questions. Why Creativity Matters—Especially Now Here's what I believe:Creativity and joy aren't frivolous. They're essential. They help us connect with our own aliveness. They open up possibilities. They offer healing not only for ourselves, but for our clients and communities. And they are especially important for therapists and helping professionals navigating: Burnout and compassion fatigue A changing mental health landscape Systems that reward overworking and self-sacrifice The desire for more flexibility, freedom, and fulfillment In short? Creativity is your asset.Not a distraction. Not a hobby. But a path to deeper alignment and more sustainable impact. Tools + Resources for Burned Out Therapists & Creative Helpers If you're feeling stuck, uninspired, or unsure how to move forward, here are two simple ways to begin reconnecting with your Zone of Genius:

A session with Terry Real, a marriage and family therapist, can get uncomfortable. He's known to mirror and amplify the emotions of his clients, sometimes cursing and nearly yelling, often in an attempt to get men in touch with the emotions they're not used to honoring.Real says men are often pushed to shut off their expression of vulnerability when they're young as part of the process of becoming a man. That process, he says, can lead to myriad problems in their relationships. He sees it as his job to pull them back into vulnerability and intimacy, reconfiguring their understanding of masculinity in order to build more wholesome and connected families.In this episode, Real explains why vulnerability is so essential to healthy masculinity and why his work with men feels more urgent than ever. He explains why he thinks our current models of masculinity are broken and what it will take to build new ones.This episode was inspired by a New York Times Magazine piece, “How I Learned That the Problem in My Marriage Was Me” by Daniel Oppenheimer.For more Modern Love, search for the show wherever you get your podcasts.

Supporting Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse - Carl Rogers'Seven Stages of Process In Episode 340 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we look at the question: Can clients ask you to delete their data? - covering legal, ethical, and practical considerations. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Jeremy Sachs about supporting male survivors of sexual abuse, with a focus on the intersectional challenges they face and practical considerations for therapists. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explain and simplify Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process, highlighting how this core theory maps client growth in therapy. Can Clients Ask You to Delete Their Data?  [starts at 03:26 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken address a challenging but important question: Can clients ask you to delete their data? Key points discussed include: Under UK GDPR (Article 17), clients have the "right to erasure" (right to be forgotten), but it's not absolute. You may decline deletion if: The data is required for legal obligations, such as tax or insurance records. You need the data to defend against complaints or for safeguarding purposes. Deleting data prematurely could leave you without a defence if a client complains later or if you are required to provide records to legal authorities or coroners. Good practice includes: Explaining data retention policies in your contract. Consulting the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office) for UK-based practitioners. Documenting decisions with written evidence from insurers or data protection authorities. Consider using a split-note system to separate identifying details from case notes. How long should client data be kept after therapy ends? (Commonly six years for adults, up to age 25 for children). Supporting Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse [starts at 23:53 mins] In ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Jeremy Sachs, therapist and author of the upcoming book Masculinity Reconnected, about male sexual abuse and its often-overlooked challenges. Key points discussed include: Societal silence: Male survivors often go unheard due to cultural narratives about masculinity, strength, and emotional repression. The role of masculinity: Traditional masculinity can prevent men from seeking help. Men may internalise shame and avoid vulnerability. "Toxic masculinity" can further oppress male survivors. Intersectionality: Men experience sexual abuse differently based on race, gender identity, class, or sexuality. Therapists must recognise these layers when supporting clients. Supporting survivors: Create safe, validating spaces for male clients to share their stories. Explore how societal expectations and cultural messaging impact their healing. Encourage community and connection to reduce isolation. Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process [starts at 45:40 mins] In ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken simplify Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process, a key person-centred theory describing how clients grow through therapy. Key points include: The seven stages map a client's journey from rigidity to fluidity - from defensiveness to openness and self-trust. Stages explained: Rigidity & Defensiveness – Blaming others, avoiding self-awareness. External Recognition – Acknowledging problems exist but externalising them. Tentative Self-Exploration – Starting to discuss personal feelings. Here-and-Now Feelings – Becoming present-focused, seeking involvement in therapy. Ownership & Change – Taking control and committing to change. Experiencing Fully – Accepting emotions in real-time and trusting the inner self. Self-Actualisation – Living authentically and growing beyond therapy. Most therapy takes place between stages 3–5,

I am so excited to have my new pal, couples therapist and author Dené Logan, on the show to talk about her new book, Sovereign Love: A Guide to Healing Relationships by Reclaiming the Masculine and Feminine Within.  There's a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to the masculine and feminine, and Dené does an amazing job of breaking this concept down.  We also shared our experiences with codependency in relationships and the importance of taking responsibility for our part in things (which includes understanding what activates you and being able to talk about it).  Dené offered so much wisdom in this conversation and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

He was one of my clinical supervisors when I was at Vanderbilt, and he's become a dear friend and mentor who helped shape me into who I am today. Besides his time at Vanderbilt, he has spent a number of years working at the VA and in various capacities in private practice. One of his areas of focus is with clients with “nice guy syndrome,” and he's sharing about his work in this conversation.

In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Harry Psaros, author of the Amazon bestseller "From Struggle to Strength: A Father's Journey with Autism and the Power of Hope and Positivity." Harry shares his personal journey of initially denying his son Gus's autism diagnosis and how he eventually became a passionate advocate in the community. He discusses the challenges fathers face in accepting their children's diagnoses, his practical "2% rule" for moving forward, and the importance of building a supportive community. Harry also shares insights about sibling relationships, maintaining a positive mindset as a parent, and what he would tell his younger self if he could go back to the day of Gus's diagnosis.

President Trump's Art of the Deal is brilliant, but are Radical Islamist-sympathizers on the same page? Today, TheTerrorist Therapist® Carole Lieberman, M.D., poses the question: can Trump's clever logic overcome the illogical religious zeal that drives terrorists to rape and murder? It's the nagging question underlying his recent trip to the Middle East.President Trump visited Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. He met with their leaders, as well as the leader of Syria. He was given a royal welcome - with horses, camels, hair flip dancers, and dined on delicacies in fine palaces. He made billions of dollars worth of trade agreements benefitting America. But, each of these countries and leaders have a ‘mixed bag' ofpositive and negative relations with the U.S. For example, Trump made lucrative deals with Saudi Arabia and even  arranged for an Arabian leopard to be exhibited at an American zoo, while victims of 9/11 are still pursuing a lawsuit against the Saudis for their role in this attack. Trump made similar gains in Qatar. As an ally, they continue to  host our troops at the Al Udeid Air base; but, as an enemy, they also host the leaders of Hamas. The United Arab Emirates has a more positive history, in that it signed the Abraham Accords, which Trump has continued to try to convince these other leaders to sign. You will hear about the risks and benefits at each of the stops on his itinerary. The Prophet Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” So, can we trust these countries? Is Qatar's gift of a flying palace for Air Force 1 a Trojan horse and a risk to Trump's life? I hope not. These are risky times, but Trump is nonetheless working hard to fulfill his promises to bring about world peace.
