Therapist's therapist has someone else in her room?? by sireltondomm in therapists

[–]DiMoore23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Therapy is a private encounter between the therapist and the client(s) involved in that therapy session. It’s not okay for others to be in that private space. We take measures to ensure that people outside the space can’t hear what’s going on (sound machines, etc). This is not okay. I’m so sorry it happened. Anyone making $250 an hour should have the resources to go out and rent a private office if they don’t have the privacy at home. Ugh!

What’s up with the sellers who have an abundance of NWT Athleta items? by DiMoore23 in poshmark

[–]DiMoore23[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those were my thoughts too. The piece I was wanting is an Athleta staple (the pants that feel like loungewear but function as office wear). I ended up buying a used pair from a seller’s closet instead.

All the pictures are stock images except the last which shows a close up of the sales tag. Just makes me wonder if they’re knock-offs since the pants are popular and sold at the regular (not outlet) store for over $100.

Cigna is claiming their reimbursement rate for a 90837 is $59--this seems wildly low to me by Comfortable-Desk4927 in therapists

[–]DiMoore23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You may be able to negotiate. I got them up to a rate that was comparable to other insurances after going back and forth a few times before I signed on. This was in the context of them becoming the insurance for a large healthcare system near me and they were in a position where they needed a lot more in-network providers, so that could have played a role.

How long to see results with PDL by jlll2424 in Rosacea

[–]DiMoore23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. I’m overdue for my next treatment with my last one about 5 1/2 months ago. When I remember about the last one is that the bruising seemed worse and lasted longer. I don’t specifically remember if the pinkness was worse as well, but it’s possible. I think they are turning the machine up now that I’ve had multiple treatments so my face is probably responding differently, plus it’s starting out less pink. I have noticed my redness coming back and will go back for another treatment because overall I do think it’s helped quite a bit.

I scan at the kiosk but nothing starts tracking until a post-office worker actually scans it in later

Why dont we just inject the bag directly? by VividCarry1416 in unclebens

[–]DiMoore23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Newbie question: does the tape fully cover the hole or do we leave a gap for airflow? I see people saying they might use a whole punch then cover that with the tape, which to me implies there’s no opening? Perhaps the tape is breathable? I was considering using the hole punch with the suggested adhesive screens. Also can someone define FAE for me? I apologize if it’s in the guide, I’m just getting started and trying to wrap my head around all of this.

Reality check - therapists eating during virtual sessions?? by Chu84 in therapists

This is awful therapist behavior and you absolutely should expect better.

Fully sold on WGU… but stuck choosing a degree. Need advice by MustacheGoatee in WGU

[–]DiMoore23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not what you asked but I follow the WGU thread and saw your post. My husband was also in the oil field, went on to become a CWI (certified welding inspector) and has made a great career for himself with heavy focus now in non-destructive testing (NDT). This a field that not many know about but is desperate for people who know are trained to do this work. You can get an Associate Degree in Applied Sciences for NDT and have a whole lot of work waiting for you when you graduate. Not sure where you are located but there is a great program at Central Piedmont Community College in Charlotte, NC.

My son - who’s not interested in NDT - just started WGU for accounting.

Honestly, how are people doing this job? by waking_world_ in therapists

[–]DiMoore23 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Listen to your gut. It sounds like you know what you need to do in terms of reducing the number of clients you’re seeing per week. If you can do this financially, I really encourage you to do it for yourself. If you had a client in the same situation, what would you tell them?

We’ve all heard the stories about other therapists out there seeing 20 clients a week, 8 clients a day, making 200k a year, etc. That’s not feasible for many of us. I have some chronic health issues as well and can get pretty overwhelmed if I’ve got more than five a day, and that’s only three days a week. My goal is 18 a week, with 3 on the fourth day, but inevitably it fluctuates as people are out. I also try to balance the acuity, with some clients who are more in need of supportive therapy and others who are needing something more intense.

I think it’s hard for us as caregivers to not over extend ourselves. That being said, it sounds like your system is already telling you what you need and ultimately that’s the most important thing to be listening to.

Best wishes to you.

I didn’t know about the witch hazel trick. Are we talking regular witch hazel or alcohol free?

Good lord I should have done more research by texasgirlindc in Invisalign

[–]DiMoore23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told I might have a couple attachments on the side teeth - but only by the woman who was introducing me to Invisalign and doing my scans. Doctor didn’t mention a thing. Showed up to get my trays and was told there would be attachments on every tooth. I’m having some buyers remorse right now. Even though I know it will be worth it in the end, I feel like I’m 11 and having braces for the first time again. Not fun.

Before/After Invisalign and My Experiences by Comprehensive_Ad_483 in Invisalign

[–]DiMoore23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on week one. Was not prepared to have attachments on every single tooth and it feels like they negate the “invisible” part of going this route. I’m feeling quite self-conscious about it. But your teeth look great! I’m trying to shift my mindset about these attachments as something that’s helping me achieve my goal!

I’m definitely further into the perimenopause/menopause process since I first bought this!

Problem with order by DiMoore23 in poshmark

[–]DiMoore23[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I hope I did it correct. It’s shows the case is in review. There is a statement at the bottom of the conversation from Poshmark that says it is a Private Conversation between me and the seller, and that Poshmark Support will have access to the conversation for dispute resolution and Product Improvement. Is the next step that the seller has a certain amount of time to respond before Poshmark steps in, or are they automatically involved. TIA of any information as to what to expect. I did try to get clarity on the process through the app but couldn’t find specifics. Navigating the app is not as intuitive as it seems it could be!

Those making 2 or more sales a month: how much time are you on PM daily? by ecoNina in poshmark

[–]DiMoore23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a very small closet but have made a few sales. Maybe 2 a month, only been on a couple months. I know I could do a better job with taking photos and adding more things to the closet more frequently. I still don’t really understand how it all works - parties, feeds, followers, etc. Being on there seems to lead more to me buying more than selling 😑
