20. Swapping Burnout for a Sustainable Practice with Rebecca Black


Listen Later

There’s one thing that has been normalised in our profession that needs to be fixed: burnout.

Rebecca Black is a clinical psychologist and coach who is passionate about creating sustainable private practices so that you can have a more balanced, joyful and fulfilling life. As someone who struggled with chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia throughout her time at university and during her private practice journey, she’s more familiar than most with the dangers of the burnout cycle.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How she was stuck in the ‘push and crash cycle’ until she healed from her chronic illnesses
  • The importance of understanding what sustainability looks like to you
  • The biggest challenges for therapists wanting to create a more sustainable practice
  • Schemas that impact therapists
  • How to tell that you’re practicing unsustainably
  • How to make your practice sustainable
