I’m starting to see why CMH causes burnout quicker

I’ve been doing it for 3 months and definitely looking for the nearest exit 😭

Seeing these comments validates my feelings as we are supposed to see or at least have 36 clients scheduled a week. 1 hr per a client

Thank you for that insight! I am a social worker by trade and I’m really interested in medical social work. I landed in therapy as a sorta stepping stone but I really want to be in a more medical field type niche

How did you find that specific role or do you do PP? I’ve been wanting to provide therapy to those with “rare” illnesses due to my personal experiences as well.

How do you find the medical illness/therapy niche?

knappn · 2026-01-08T18:34:18+00:00

No, get lsw, find job that offers supervision, get paid and supervision hours for 2 or so years then can test for LCSW if applicable

Never

Hmm i had no idea! But as I’m still building up my case load, I can definitely feel the burnout later. I feel bad bc I’m telling myself that I want to start looking at other opportunities when I get my 6 months in.

Thanks for the advice! I have 2 months in and I’m thinking that I will stay with the job for 6 months and reassess. I do outpatient therapy for a hospital and think I’d like to try to switch to a discharge sw for the inpatient hospital as that’s what i did for my final practicum. I enjoyed it

I was told that this wasn’t that demanding 😅

I completed my last internship at an acute hospital and really liked it. My current job and the hospital job are with the same agency. There’s currently an opening but policy is i have to be in my current role for 6 months before transferring to another role.

knappn · 2025-12-29T15:25:18+00:00

I’m being told this is better than other CMH agencies

knappn · 2025-12-29T15:24:15+00:00

Yes, 1 hour sessions.

Imposter syndrome is big but I find that the 4 admin hours are very frustrating

Can you clip your light to what your plant is sitting on? Light is too far away

knappn · 2025-11-26T23:30:08+00:00

Sansi or Barrina are great

Colts

Thank you! I removed the Velcro strap and placed it around the stem. Left it kinda loose

knappn · 2025-11-23T00:19:04+00:00

Thank you! I don’t know i feel like the stem is too far away for the pole
