02 Mar 2024
Failure Isn't Final. Failure is a data point.During this episode of the All Things Private Practice Podcast, I talk with Leah Riddell, the owner of Origins Counseling & Wellness.Here are some key takeaways from this episode:Burnout and Monotony in Private Practice: If you are a therapist or mental health professional, you may be experiencing burnout or finding yourself stuck in the monotony of clinical hours. This episode addresses the need for diversifying professional activities to maintain excitement and passion in mental health professionals' careers. Leah's approach to expanding income and professional development through a group practice offers viable solutions for therapists seeking to revitalize their practice and prevent burnout.Challenges in Serving Marginalized Communities: Therapists who work in areas with limited representation and support often struggle to provide adequate services to marginalized communities, such as the LGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent populations. Leah's expertise and experiences in creating a practice that specifically caters to these groups provide valuable insights and strategies for other mental health professionals who aim to better serve and support such communities within their own practices.Overcoming Personal and Professional Setbacks: Many listeners may relate to the fear of failure and challenges associated with stepping out of their comfort zones in both personal and professional landscapes. This episode dives into conversations about resilience, the transient nature of struggles, and viewing failure as a data point rather than a devastating event.About Leah:Leah is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist, a group practice owner, entrepreneur, coach, CE provider, educator, retreat host, speaker, and empowerment generator.
