You might notice the name of the podcast is different. But don’t worry, the heart of this show is the same. I’m still talking about what it takes to build a private practice that gives you more time, freedom, and flexibility, especially if you’re balancing it all as a mom, partner, clinician, or, frankly, a human who wants a life outside of work.
And today, we’re getting into one of the most common questions I hear: “How do you turn a consult call into a full, thriving caseload?”
In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what to do from first contact through that first session, including:
If you’ve ever finished a consult thinking, “That went great… so why didn’t they book?”, this episode will give you the tools and language to change that.

Private practice comes with a lot of “rules” we’re told to follow. Most of them are unspoken, but deeply ingrained. Work evenings and weekends because that’s when clients are free. A “real” therapist sees people in person. High fees are unethical. And of course, you should never say no to a referral.
The problem is that when we follow these without question, we are left feeling burned out, resentful, and stuck in businesses that don’t fit our lives.
In this episode, I’m naming and unpacking the four biggest myths that keep therapists, especially women and moms, playing small in private practice. We’ll talk about where these beliefs come from, how they show up in your day-to-day, and what it looks like to finally break free from them.
If you’re feeling the pull to make some shifts in your business, consider this your nudge to take that step. Book a Clarity & Strategy Coaching Session and let’s figure it out together.
