• Tools for effective and resilient private practice

  Tools for effective and resilient private practiceWelcome to The Business of Psychology podcast. Today we're talking about AI tools. I wanted to update the list of helpful tools that I created a couple of years back, because AI has come in and made such a big difference to the way that most of us are running our practices. If you're not using AI tools yet, it's probably something that you've been thinking about and wanting to explore, so this podcast is an update to the podcast that I made a couple of years ago on the tools of private practice. I've handily combined both of these episodes together into a PDF ebook that you can download and get all the hyperlinks to all the tools that I recommend for every type of task in your practice.Full show notes for this episode are available at The Business of PsychologyLinks/references:PDF eBook: Essential Private Practice ToolkitEpisode Links:Episode 92: What tools do I need to run my practice?Episode 158: How to find your ideal clients in 2025: SEO for psychologists and therapists with Chris MorinEpisode 162: Using AI in therapy and other legal questions with Clare Veal from Aubergine LegalLegal Packs:Legal Essentials: Contracts, Policies and ProcessesLegal essentials for working with children and young people in independent practiceLinks for Rosie:Substack: substack.com/@drrosieRosie on Instagram:@rosiegilderthorp@thepregnancypsychologistEvolve and Thrive MastermindAre you a psychologist or therapist with a thriving practice, but you're feeling stuck?

• How much can I earn as a psychologist or therapist in private practice?

  How much can I earn as a psychologist or therapist in private practice?Hello and welcome to the Business of Psychology. Today I'm talking about a subject which will probably make you feel uncomfortable. None of us really like talking about money or the fact that we want it or need it. Those things typically give us the ick, and I'm no exception to that, so expect me to sound awkward today. But the fact is that when you are starting out in any business venture, very often there is a financial gap that you need to fill and there should be a financial aspiration, something that you want to aim for, for yourself, for your family, for whatever your reasons are, for wanting a decent income, and it is nothing to be ashamed of. The fact is, earning money in your independent practice does a lot of good both for you and your personal life, but also for the world in general. But many people going into independent practice, or considering growing their practice, will be asking themselves the question, how much should I expect to earn from this business? And today I'm going to talk a bit about how we might start to answer that question.Full show notes for this episode are available at The Business of PsychologyEpisode Links:Episode 41: How to set your fees in your psychology private practice with “pricing queen” Sally FarrantEpisode 98: The unexpected costs of running a private practiceEpisode 19: How Psychologists And Therapists Can Use An Ideal Client Avatar To Co Create And Market Their ServicesEpisode 158: How to find your ideal clients in 2025: SEO for psychologists and therapists with Chris MorinEpisode 134: Leadership in your Psychology PracticeEpisode 61: Turning a practice into a service with Dr Melanie LeeEpisode 152: Thinking differently about your practice: A tool to put the client firstSubstack: substack.com/@drrosieRosie on Instagram:@rosiegilderthorp@thepregnancypsychologistEvolve and Thrive MastermindAre you a psychologist or therapist with a thriving practice, but you're feeling stuck?

• A different type of insurance - Clinical Wills with Anna Bunch

  A different type of insurance - Clinical Wills with Anna BunchWelcome to the Business of Psychology podcast. I am thrilled to be here today with my friend and colleague, Anna Bunch, from Psych VA. You might remember Anna, she's been on the podcast before talking to us about the systems and processes that we need to have in place for our independent practices. But for this season, which is all about resilience and adaptability, I just had to get Anna back on to talk about something which I know that she's really passionate about, but to be honest, wasn't at the top of my list when I started in an independent practice. And that is this concept of a clinical will, which is not the right term for it, and we're going to talk about why, but that plan that needs to be in place for if you are incapacitated and can't run your practice anymore. It's a really important area, it's one that I've avoided for the eight years I've been in independent practice, and I'm sure that many of you will also have avoided, but Anna has absolutely convinced me that it's important and something that we all need to address.Full show notes and a transcript of this episode are available at The Business of PsychologyLinks:Links for Anna:Website: psych-va.co.ukClinical Continuity Plans: psych-va.co.uk/clinical-continuity-plansLinks for Rosie:Substack: substack.com/@drrosieRosie on Instagram:@rosiegilderthorp@thepregnancypsychologistThe highlightsAnna talks us about her business, Psych VA, and how it came about 01:23Anna tells us what a clinical will, or rather, a clinical continuity plan is, and why it’s important 04:28I ask Anna about the process of putting clinical continuity plan in place 17:10Anna talks us through the two packages she offers 18:23Anna tells us what sets Psych VA apart in offering this service 20:20
