Money: Is It the Root of all Evil?
Did you miss out on the conference today? Well then, here's what you missed!
Explore what money means to you...finances is one of the top 3 reasons marriages fail. Your relationship with your client also has the possibility to fail if you aren't able to identify your own values and how that will impact the therapy.
If you tend to scrimp, you may find it difficult to invest money into yourself and your practice. This results in the possibility of not buying nice furniture, wall art, or other amenities to spruce up your office. It also may hinder you from budgeting for conferences, which can help you improve your skills.
You may use money as a gauge for your emotional success. When you're doing well, you feel great and invest more into your practice and yourself. When your practice is slow, you may take it personally and become panicked, or start to engage in self-depricating behaviors.

Where Do I Start?
In working with many pre-licensed clinicians, I get the question, "I want to get into private practice, but I don't know where to start. Any suggestions?"
My first question to such practitioners is, "How are you letting people know about your desire?"
The fact is there are a lot of resources for new practitioners to help them "break" into private practice. Many State-level organizations, such as California Association of Marriage & Family Therapists (CAMFT) and American Association of Marriage & Family Therapists (AAMFT) have local (county/state) chapters, which meet on a regular basis. Getting involved in chapters allow you the opportunity to network and tell others of your desire as well as get a sense of who you are as a clinician.
Networking is the key. Putting out the word and allowing others will make the transition to private practice easier.
