Let’s talk numbers — the honest, encouraging kind.

In this episode, I’m joined by Michael Fulwiler, Director of Brand at Heard, to unpack the key findings from Heard’s 2025 Financial State of Private Practice Report. We dig into what therapists are actually earning, how much they’re spending on their practices, and the financial challenges (and wins!) that private practitioners are facing right now.

It’s an honest, supportive conversation for anyone who’s feeling uncertain or curious about the financial side of being a therapist.
