Business Of Therapy

My Tough Decision to See Less Therapy Clients


Listen Later

One of the things I consistently share on Instagram is my monthly income report. You may have noticed that my income from 1-1 therapy clients isn’t as high as it used to be. In fact...it’s pretty low, which has led people to ask me WHY that is. 

Well...that’s because I made the tough decision to see less therapy clients. 

You may be thinking ‘why the heck would you do that?!”, or questioning if it’s possible for YOU to make 6 figures seeing 1-1 therapy clients. 

I knew I wanted to dedicate an entire episode to this topic and talk more in depth about WHY I decided to see less therapy clients. Quite a bit has changed for me along the way, so let’s get into it! 

In this episode, I cover: 

  • My first year in private practice with ONLY1-1 therapy clients
  • What happened when my Instagram really took off
  • My major business growth in 2022 + what needed to change in 2023
  • Why I intentionally chose to see less 1-1 therapy clients in 2023 and what this looked like
  • Why you MUST give yourself permission to do what’s best for you and your business
