I've been BINGING your videos! I'm starting my counseling program in July and I'm absolutely scared. Your videos have helped TREMENDOUSLY! I dream of having my own private practice and I love your book recommendations so much. As a woman of color myself, it's so nice to see another. Thank you ❤
I just discovered your videos and I'm so inspired! I'm planning to apply for MFT programs early next year and right now I'm taking pre-requisite courses at the local CC and am about to do some clinical volunteer experiences. I dropped out of grad school 3 years ago (super traumatic academic experience, the program was a poor fit for my goals and identity at the time-plus it was such a hard transition moving alone to a new city) and I "floated" aimlessly for so long before reconnecting to my purpose 3 years later and realizing I wanted to become an MFT. Thank you for the content you make, your videos make my day!
Its wild seeing how chill your schedule is. I am also a therapist with a large caseload that I adapt visits for. I work back to back sessions 9-7 M-Th. Its an average of 38 sessions a week minimum... and even with that, its hard to survive financially.
@@flowerlizz456 I’m really sorry things are hard financially, I experienced that for years and it’s so frustrating and exhausting. 🤎 There’s so many factors that come into play like life circumstances, the support we have from those we live with, what we earn per session, cost of living in our cities and depending on our lifestyles. If there’s any questions you have feel free to let me know.
Thank you so much for all your content! I am just starting my masters program and am wanting to vlog it and would love recommendations. I work primarily with Hispanic males currently on federal parole, but my future practice will be all men, especially focusing on PTSD and comorbid Substance use disorders. I am a white male btw, but I love and work in carrizo springs Texas
That's awesome, such a needed specialty too! You definitely should, the more helpful information and resources out there the better. Thanks for watching and for being here!

Good perspective on monthly sessions. You are right what is important is what best meets clients needs
Thank you, love getting to hear about how other therapists run their practices and the differences😊
