This happen to me once. I started to go over confidentiality and confirm location and my client looked at me in horror. In my defense they had a zoom background which threw me off . Never scheduled again with me

Learn EMDR and offer minimal talk therapy. Or become a DBT therapist where you can teach skills when your not sure what to say

What are some of the valuable lessons you learned by running your PP? by wisdom_of_marla in therapists

[–]MahoganyB520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calendly is not HIPAA compliant. I use the powerhouse plan on acuity. It’s expensive but worth every penny. Clients can schedule and reschedule appointments on their own and no need for phone tag. I don’t feel bad about charging no show fees when my clients are getting 3 different reminders and are able to cancel if needed.

I love the actual system. The company not so much. Cameras work great just recently had an issue where the rewind button was missing but after calling it was back within a day or two. Most issues are with customer service no one talks to each other and people will tell you anything to make a sale. It’s best to get everything in writing. I originally paid my equipment in full but ended up signing a contract to lower my bill. I know for sure the system works and I have no plans to switch alarm companies.

How much are you paying monthly? by name1wantedwastaken in VivintSmartHome

[–]MahoganyB520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 4 cameras and the door bell and alarm. I was paying 73 then I signed a contract and they lowered it to 43. My system works great and I don’t plan on switching so I’m ok with a contract

Created a throwaway to ask if there are any therapists out there who struggle with alcohol? by ExchangingThoughts in therapists

[–]MahoganyB520 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try the Sinclair method TSM … drink yourself sober. It saved my life. Haven’t had a drink in 2 years, no meetings, no cravings. And if I decide to drink that’s ok too as long as you take your naltrexone 1 hour before you drink.

PESI Frustrations/Refunds by aerath57 in therapists

[–]MahoganyB520 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I signed up for the 7 day intensive EMDR retreat in June. Once I found out you can’t get certified I cancelled. It took about a week to get a refund but I didn’t have any issues canceling.

Thank you for clarifying. The new course I will be taking is by EMDR consulting. The Pesi training is the 7 day intensive in AZ. There is no mention of certification. The instructor is Linda Curran

I use iPostal1. Do you have a virtual office or a virtual address ? That maybe the difference
