The Bad Therapist Show

Work With Your Desires, Not Against Them [Ep 3]


Listen Later

Tell me if any one of the following statements sounds familiar. “I can’t charge X amount of money. That’s much more than therapists charge in my area.” “I can’t take time off, my clients need me.” “I can’t enforce that cancellation policy, that would be crazy.” If that’s what you are thinking, I have only one question for you. Why not? It’s your business.

You went through the trouble of starting your own private practice but you’re not allowed to create the business you want? What?! You would not believe how many therapists feel like they have less freedom in their private practice than they would have if they worked in an agency. That’s why in today’s podcast episode, I talk about how to start acting on your desires, how to create a business that makes you happy, why we feel bad about enjoying life, how you can change it, and more!

In this episode, I chat about:

  • Why many therapists have less freedom in their own private practice than in working for an agency
  • Why we often feel bad about enjoying life
  • Healing the belief that feeling good is not okay
  • How to start paying attention to your desires
  • Why you should stop looking for reasons to not fulfill your desires
  • How to start connecting with your desires and thus create even more impact
  • Affirmations for healing your limiting beliefs
  • A simple practice to give your desires the attention they deserve
