Ever find yourself staring at the ceiling at 8 PM wondering, "Was that the right intervention?" Or maybe you're drowning in admin work, questioning if private practice is really the freedom-filled dream everyone said it would be?
In this episode, Gordon sits down with Marie from Private Practice Skills—a therapist, creator, and all-around wise human who gets the real behind-the-scenes of therapy life. We're diving into the kind of conversations we need to be having: therapist burnout (the sneaky kind), invisible work hours, how outsourcing might save your sanity, and why you don't have to build your practice like everyone else.
If you've ever thought, "Wait… am I doing this right?"—this episode is for you. Marie brings warmth, wisdom, and just the right amount of real talk to help you reconnect with your why and reimagine a practice that actually fits your life.
