Will Seeing Private Clients Just Burn Me...

What if the very thing you think will burn you out… is actually the thing that saves your career?

Burnout is everywhere in our field. And here’s the hard truth: burnout is the single greatest threat to you staying in this profession — the very profession you spent years of your life and tens of thousands of dollars in grad school to join.

That’s why today’s episode is such an important one. We’re talking about how private clients aren’t the cause of burnout — they’re actually the path out of it.

So many SLPs and OTs believe that adding private clients would just stretch them thinner. But here’s the truth: it’s not the therapy that’s exhausting you — it’s the system. Overloaded caseloads, endless paperwork, lack of flexibility, and feeling undervalued are what’s draining you.

Instead of running on empty, you finally get to create a career that fuels you, both personally and professionally.

Inside the Start Your Private Practice Program, I’ve seen this transformation over and over again. So many students came in ready to leave the field altogether, but private practice reignited their passion. They’re working fewer hours, earning more, serving clients they love and most importantly, loving their careers again.

In Today's Episode, We Discuss:

• Why burnout is the #1 threat to your career
• The real cause of burnout
• How private practice restores control, balance, and fulfillment
• Best time to take your first step into private practice

Here’s what I want you to remember: you didn’t come this far, invest this much, and work this hard just to burn out and walk away. Private practice can be your way back to freedom, fulfillment, and loving your career again.

Want to take back control of your career and finally escape burnout? The Start Your Private Practice Program is where I’ll help you set up your first private clients so you can work less, earn more, and love being a clinician again. To learn more, please visit www.StartYourPrivatePractice.com.
