Professional Development in Private Practice
updated 1/25/2023
I remember in my agency work and county work I had a requirement for professional development hours. This meant attending trainings mainly that were provided or sometimes if I was lucky, I could take some time away to go to an event. Remember those days? Asking the boss for time away so you can work on your professional development.
Make Time for Professional Development as a Therapist
When you are in private practice, your professional development doesn’t stop but you are the only one who can make time for it. Have you asked your boss for some time to focus on your professional development? (ahem…that would be asking yourself)
We have decided to support the efforts of SmartPractioner. No worries, we don’t get a financial kickback or anything, it was an organization that we wanted to support because of what they are providing to therapists. They offer CE courses, certifications, webinars, and other discounts to help you continue with your professional development. Other partners include Brighter Vision, The Trust, Track Your Hours, We Counsel, and more.
SmartPractioner is for you no matter where you are in your journey – a student, pre-licensed, working in an agency, or running a private practice.
Zynnyme worked with SmartPractitioner a couple of years back to extend a 1-year subscription for free, a $120 value!
I do like free because it allows you to test things out and see if it is a good fit for you.
