162: Redefining Self-Care in Private Practice with Karen Dyck & Melissa Tiessen

Do you struggle to prioritize your own self-care in the face of your clients’ needs? In today’s coaching episode, Linzy talks with Melissa Tiessen and Karen Dyck, co-founders of Intentional Therapist, about the importance of self-compassion for therapists and how it intersects with money and practice sustainability.

Melissa and Karen discuss the risks of neglecting self-care, particularly for therapists who are often inclined to put others first. They introduce the Four Cs framework, which provides a comprehensive approach to caring for yourself while also nurturing the quality of care you offer your clients. With insights on setting boundaries, building connection, and fostering creativity, this episode provides invaluable tools for therapists who want to create a sustainable practice without sacrificing their personal well-being.

If you’ve ever found yourself burnt out or stretched too thin, this episode is for you. Tune in to learn how self-compassion can lead to a healthier, more balanced practice and life, helping you show up as your best self for your clients—and for yourself.
