Full Private Practice - What does that mean?

Ever wonder if your private practice is really full?

Sometimes you might think:

I have to be super busy to be full…

I have to have to have x amount of sessions to be full…

My friend sees 10 more clients a week than me, I guess I’m not full..

Full doesn't mean successful. You could have a ton of clients and be charging a fee that is all over the place or doesn’t allow you to run a business optimally, or take care of you optimally.

Full doesn't mean happy. You could be seeing a ton of clients that are not the right fit, sessions that drain you and lead to more stress and burnout.

Full doesn't mean great outcomes. You could be seeing a ton of clients with high turnover, high drop out rates and low outcomes with clients.
