 In the sequel to last week’s episode, we’re once again speaking with Jesse Kauffman, a Licensed Master Social Worker and LIMB Grad based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.  

If you haven’t already listened to part one of his story, make sure you check it out here. (We’ll be waiting right here while you catch up.)

This week, Jesse walks us through his experience with what many of us would consider to be our worst nightmare.  

He took the leap, raised his fee, charged more than anyone in his area… and then had a client lodge a complaint against him with his board.  

And not only did they lodge the complaint, but an investigation was actually opened.  

In this episode, Jesse will describe what that experience was like and what he learned along the way.

 

In this episode, Jesse shares: 

His harrowing story of stepping into his full fee even when it meant having a licensing complaint lodged against him; 

How he sought support to make it through this difficult situation; 

How liability insurance came into play and how much it cost him to secure a lawyer to assist him; 

Why it’s vital to keep your notes up to date in order to have a premium fee practice (keep listening to hear how this comes into play); 

Exactly what you need to say if someone ever lodges a complaint against you or says your fee is too high (Jesse has a perfect answer).
