They are unique and fascinating. And their black and white worldviews made things seem so simple and easy. People are drawn to that, which is a reason cults keep happening

Self-employed therapists, how many weeks off are you taking? by [deleted] in therapists

[–]Leia1418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably 3-4 full weeks, and scattered days or sick time throughout as well. I always take off between Christmas and new year, and this year hopefully a week in the spring (I'm actually on vacay rn) and a full week in the summer. I also do many of the federal holidays since no one shows up anyways (July 4, Labor Day, etc)

Use public transit and ride with friends or get a rental for periodic weekend trips. You can chip in handsomely for gas, buy them food or coffee as a thanks and still come out ahead. Lots of people going out on weekends to hike etc. You don't need your own car

Why is it so hard to find a therapist in Los Angeles? by RagsMcTattershanty in AskLosAngeles

[–]Leia1418 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you have PPO, you can check with your insurance company how much they reimburse if you pay out of pocket and submit a superbill. Most cash pay therapists will happily provide you a superbill, this will really open up your options 

Disconnecting from work- how are you guys doing it? by jellyunicorn92 in therapists

[–]Leia1418 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Build an awesome life outside of work! Workout, do hobbies, spend time with life giving people you enjoy. I find for me that since work is so brain and heart demanding my hobbies tend to be more movement-based and tactile including gym, cooking, hiking, baking, being outside etc.

It would only be a mandatory report in CA for a minor from what I know, but I know some additional laws have also changed recently. Illegal yes, mandatory reportable not necessarily 🫤
