The Business of Therapizing

By: Shauna Allen
  • Summary

  • The podcast was created for clinicians by a clinician. I'm here to talk about therapy business in a way we haven't spoken about it before. Because it's really easy to tell therapists to let their niche come to them, and start a private practice. But, they didn't teach us business in grad school put us in the position to practice what we learned in the corporate world. One thing they don't like to tell us is that there are no clear lucrative pathways for therapists. We're left to try and put the pieces together. For those of us who are lucky we form strong relationships and find amazing mentors. Many of us, struggle to make ends meet. Therapists should and can be rich, they just don't tech that in grad school! In this podcast, you're going to hear my method of focusing in and creating an aligning therapy business that sets you up for a sustainable career. You'll even get homework time to explore your therapeutic career.

  • This Is A Set Up, Right?
    Mar 6 2023

    In this episode, we examine how it seems like therapists are set up to fail. Or at least, set up to be exploited. Therapists are leaving the therapy industry in part because they are departed further away from what they initially intended but in other parts, because they have little direction back. Here's what's going on and how we can turn it around.

  • Magnifying Focus In
    Feb 8 2023

    Stop getting lost in the idea of niche. All you're doing is adding labels to what you're doing. Take a magnifying glass and let's focus in on a particular problem that you help to resolve. In this episode I explain how focusing in is a benefit to your mental health practice as it helps you understand your peeps on a deeper level and gives you the opportunity to provide more of an all-around service.
