The Beachfront Therapist
The Beachfront Therapist podcast is about running an affordable practice, that is streamlined and organized, working as little time as possible, all while turning a profit, so that therapists have the time and money they need to do the things they love outside of work and return to session refreshed and ready to help clients.
This podcast also has several therapist communities and places to follow for networking, resources, ideas, more info, and upcoming episodes: checkout our group for therapist resources and community, we also have a brand new group for EMDR specific topics, or follow the Beachfront Therapist on Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, or YouTube.
