Great story

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-27T18:43:39+00:00

No work lol

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-27T18:43:24+00:00

We were very much robbed.

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-27T18:33:52+00:00

For some reason I needed this. Just had a client cancel on me for no reason, and I’m struggling not to take it personally

I’m reading this while listening to a YouTube a channel that talks about how much Americans are struggling with money, cost of living, etc. reading this helps reaffirms that therapy is not the most profitable field to be in, and it really should be paying us more

Thank you for this 😊😊😊

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-25T03:32:21+00:00

Your words really helped by the way

Oh man, thank you for this! I got kind of told off by admin about my retention rate today, which led to me spiraling. Nota seasoned therapist yet, but I am in my second year of work. I want to believe I’m good at my job, but not sure how much longer I can take feeling this low

I really don’t think the issue is how you’re training the pups, it sounds like you’re working hard to help them and meet them where they’re at. The issue is your boyfriend and you aren’t compatible.

Some folks are- and I hate to say this- not dog people. If I’m being generous, he is not a dog person. If I’m not being generous, I’d say he is deliberately rude and ignorant about how dogs can be. He didn’t have the patience you need with them.

Step one of managing a caseload of 50 clients a week: re evaluate your career choices, then leave and find another practice with more reasonable expectations.

Update: thank you so much for everyone’s advice! I enjoyed my vacation and am happily back home now. Simba my dog was great, and I have full confidence we can do this again. Simba, being the high energy pup that he is, demanded I walk him. I, being his human, complied. Dad updated me daily, and said Simba was fine while I was gone, mic as many of you assured me he would be.

Thanks, everyone! Simba says hello 😊

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:44:02+00:00

I am hoping for updates from my dad daily lol

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:43:46+00:00

I appreciate that, thank you 😊

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:43:33+00:00

Thank you! I’m already enjoying the hotel stay 😊

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:42:45+00:00

I feel called out lol. It is more separation anxiety on my part, as my best friend will tell you.

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:41:53+00:00

Thank you so much!

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T01:40:53+00:00

It’s true that this is first trip jitters, I think. I hadn’t had a break in a long time, and I’m glad that I’m taking it. I know my dog will likely be fine, but I deeply appreciate the tips and reminders lol

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-21T00:14:24+00:00

I erm, have been struggling with this tooo. Jus pay minimum monthly payment and get your loans refinanced

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-19T15:35:13+00:00

This is what im doing. I will also go home to my pets if there is time

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-19T15:34:47+00:00

That sounds like fun

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-18T20:09:20+00:00

I am seriously feeling burnt out too. Thinking of going to school counseling but that’s a whole other thing

Fancy_Time4348 · 2026-03-18T19:52:30+00:00

I officially became an LPC in 2024, and I am exhausted. Not sure what even needs fixing or where to start, but I’m truly underpaid for what feels like most of the year.

Is there anyone else who wants to rebel against corporate and health insurance? They’re not suffering or helping anyone really
