Training for Therapists: Webinars, Courses, Certifications, and CEs

You have probably noticed that time and energy are your most important, and most limited, resources as a therapist. Most of us start with boundless energy in this profession, and then we learn that this energy fades- even though the love and passion for the work do not.

Announcement: NBCC CE Hours for Fall 2015 Bootcamp

One of the most surprising thing for our bootcamper attendees is how much of the material that is covered is clinical in nature. But it is business... but it is clinical...

The truth is, Kelly and I are therapists first and business people second. We see the connection between business practices and clinical practice. While being an ineffective business person doesn't make a bad therapist.... it doesn't allow you to practice being an amazing therapist.Your business inefficiencies, your money blocks, your marketing frustration- it will all get in the way of being a completely awesome therapist.
