Podcasts about therapy practice

Welcome back to Please Me!, the podcast bringing you bold conversations and Big Clit Energy! In this episode, Eve sits down with the brilliant Dr. Jenn Kennedy to have the kind of honest, grown-up sex ed talk we all should've gotten. From masturbation and the importance of solo exploration to redefining intimacy and tackling the orgasm gap, nothing is off-limits. They break down the connection between sensuality and sexuality, how to build trust through vulnerability, and why communication is the ultimate aphrodisiac. You'll also learn how self-pleasure can actually enhance your partnered experiences—and why curiosity, not shame, should be your starting point. Whether you're single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this is your permission slip to turn yourself on, speak up, and pursue deeper connection—mind, body, and bedroom.  What We Cover: Why masturbation is a powerful tool for self-awareness and pleasure The difference between sensuality and sexuality—and why it matters How to build confidence around expressing your desires Using toys as conversation starters, not replacements Practical tools like Sensate Focus to reignite connection The role of aftercare and “pillow talk” in strengthening intimacy Aging, sex, and adapting your desires as bodies change Dismantling shame and embracing curiosity in the bedroom  Resources & Links: Connect with Eve Hall, Host of Please Me!

So you're thinking about starting a cash-based PT practice, but you're like… “How much is this actually gonna cost me?” You might've seen blogs or posts saying $30K–$50K — and I'm here to tell you: lol, no. That's just not it.During this episode, I'm breaking down what it really costs to get your practice off the ground (hint: it's way more doable than people make it sound). We'll talk about realistic startup numbers, how different models (home-based, gym, mobile) can affect your costs, and — maybe most importantly — the sneaky hidden costs of doing it all alone or staying stuck in a job that's draining you.If you're ready to ditch the clinic but not ready to spend $50K just to do it, this episode is for you.--Follow me on Instagram: @drmorganmeese | Join my Facebook Group: DPT to CEO | Ready to start your own cash based practice?

Meet Melanie Snyder, a therapist and the owner of Tri-State Psychotherapy Group, a multi-state group practice that serves clients in New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New Jersey. They provide individual, family, and couples therapy and have clinicians that speak Mandarin and Spanish. She currently lives in New York state but previously lived in Massachusetts, where she started her private practice. At that time many of her clients were college students and she wanted to be able to continue to provide therapy when they returned home for breaks and the summer. Recognizing a need she began hiring a year and a half ago and her team has grown to 15 clinicians! She shares her challenges navigating federal, state, and licensure regulations, the administrative side of the business, as well as carrying a caseload. Key takeaways: There is no multi-state checklist out there! Ensure you are familiar with the state licensure and employment laws of the clinicians you hire. Connect with and learn from other therapists who are doing what you want to do. Retreats can be a helpful way to make your team feel closer and connected to one another. Be clear and upfront about expectations in the beginning so it is clear what to prioritize and there is less need for micromanagement. Melanie's links: Website Facebook
