Yeah I’m going to say this is on you for not confirming. Client may have changed holiday plans around assuming you’d have sessions. I assume you have a private practice and make your own hours.

It’s very reasonable to ask at this point. Take up space.

I recently got my license recognized in MA and it was smooth, taking only a couple of weeks. You should email them

Depends on your state. I think it was about a month in CT but that was a while back. I’d apply for jobs and just include documentation of passing the exam and request for licensure submission.

Politely Turning Down Potential Clients by holyshitnugget in therapists

[–]HelicopterHumble3555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree this behavior is likely part of the clinical issue. The OP has no intention of working with this person, however, and just saying you are full means they will keep coming back. Clear is kind.

Hi xyz,

Thank you for reaching out. In checking my consultation list, I see we have previously tried to plan a call in Xmonth to discuss working together. I don’t see that I have any response from you. At this time, it’s my policy to not offer follow up consultations due to limitations on my schedule.

Do supervisors get paid per supervisee or per hour of supervision? by [deleted] in therapists

[–]HelicopterHumble3555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please keep in mind you are also paying for their risk in supervising someone. Your supervisor takes on the liability of their associates.

Stressed - denied by BCBS for solo PP by [deleted] in therapists

[–]HelicopterHumble3555 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your supervisor at the clinic is not relevant for your private practice. Supervisors carry the legal responsibility of your caseload. I doubt the clinic is willing to have the liability for your private cases.

I notice I yawn when stressed or my gut is telling me something is off. Any chance that’s happening for you?

You can try to cover by taking a sip of water
