Why I’m Choosing to StayFor the therapist on the edge of burnout, change, or walking away — a reminder of what’s still possibleThere’s Still So Much Goodness in Private PracticeYes, it’s hard. Yes, things are shifting. But this space is still full of possibility.If you’ve felt the weight of all the recent changesIf you’ve caught yourself thinking, “Is it even worth it anymore?”This episode is for you.Today, I’m speaking directly to the therapist who’s been holding on by a thread.The one wondering if it’s time to leave.The one who still loves the work, but doesn’t know if there’s room for her in this new version of the system.I get it.You’re not imagining the heaviness in the private practice space right now — especially with the NDIS changes and the uncertainty rippling through our industry.But I want to offer you something else, too:A moment to come back to what’s still good.Because despite it all…Despite the exhaustion, the confusion, the grief…This space still holds so much possibility.And you get to shape it.Inside this episode, I share:The real fears I’ve had lately (and why I’m not having them now)Why I still believe in private practice, even when it’s hardA few of the moments that reminded me why I do this workThree reflective prompts to help you reconnect with what mattersPermission to change how you practice — without throwing it all awayThis one’s for the therapist who’s not ready to give up.The one who knows there has to be another way — but just needed someone to say it out loud first.You’re not alone.
