The First Step Towards Your Dream Private Practice with Mary
Are you looking for inspiration to start your own private practice? Or maybe you've already taken the leap, and you're feeling a bit overwhelmed? Don't worry, you're not alone!
Mary, a member of the Business School for Therapists community, faced some challenges on her private practice journey, but she found a way to make it work. As soon as she got licensed in California, she had to deal with moving with her husband and getting licensed in a new state. But she didn't let those obstacles hold her back. Instead, she dedicated one day a week to seeing private pay clients while working at an agency the rest of the week.
Now, Mary’s taking her practice to the next level. She's transitioning away from insurance, revamping her website, starting a social media presence, and even launching a podcast.
In this episode, Mary shares her journey from being an introverted teenager who gave advice to her friends to becoming a licensed therapist and her transition from insurance to private pay. She also emphasizes the importance of self-care and offers practical advice for those just starting in private practice.
So, if you've ever considered becoming a therapist, take a page from Mary's book and don't be afraid to take that first step. Who knows where it might take you?
