You're too kind! And my hope in sharing is to encourage others that anyone can replicate this, as long as you're willing to do the work and follow the right strategy :)
I spent yesterday and today crying over a man for using up my time. After this video It changed what I'm going to spend my time with. Thank you so much for being so open and honest and helpful with this video. You deserve ALL the $$ :)
Thank you so much for this truly great video. Your approach is SOOO refreshing. You break it all down into logical clear steps and make it sound so "doable" - so many people make everything sound so complicated that its discouraging - and off-putting ! the sheer amount of things they list as essential are exhausting - I have come away feeling 100% encouraged - My channel is ready and I am launching this week . Many thanks your new fan Maureen Pilkington
What a sweet comment! It is indeed the both/and of doable and hard work. But hard work doesn't have to mean it's complicated or that it requires giving over your values. I'm all about choosing the cluster of activities that fit who you are and that create the outcome you want - it looks different for everyone! Excited for your channel to launch and best wishes to you!
You could cut the number of private practice in half, replace them with private coaching clients- therapists who want to scale their practice- and charge them 2.5x what you charge your private practice clients. Easy. You could make a group program and charge $3-5k for this too. I see it all the time (business coaches) but you’ve ACTUALLY done it yourself (a lot of those coaches haven’t grown a successful practice but they’re happy to charge $10k+ to tell you how you should do it 🙄). We need less of them and more of you! You’re awesome!! The real deal 🙏🏻❤️
Congrats for a great milestone achieved! Must be great to be able to proudly look back ...totally deserved your success after so much hard work- thanks for keeping it real for us with the effort at the beginning. I bet you had your moments of doubts ...but so happy you didn’t gave up on us 🥳🙏
Thanks Denisa! I definitely had doubts about whether I would earn income from it eventually, but I never questioned whether I should stop. I love it too much!
So awesome to hear how intentional you were with your plans and goals and to see the success you've created! Huge CONGRATS Marie!! And much gratitude for sharing!! Super helpful!!❤❤👍👍
You have been so helpful in providing tips and guidance for therapists to start their private practice. I'm so glad to hear that your business and passive income are growing! I would like to explore passive income someday. Need to juggle work life balance too! Thank you!
I'm glad you find it helpful! It's definitely a ton of elbow grease up front to get the systems set up, but SO well worth it in the end if you're willing to put in the effort. Wishing you all the best!
Thank you for sharing your experience Marie! Its helpful for those of us who are newer content creators to have a realistic perspective of what it really takes to build income streams using online platforms.
You are truly a breath of fresh air. Your content is so informative and honest. I'm a bit older as a well seasoned therapist and have always thought abput passive income. My challenge is a niche and audience cause I fear boredom. Thank you for your blue print and wisdom. I have a new goal for 2021 to narrow it down. Much continued success!
That completely makes sense! My specialties have already shifted a few times in my career and I think I'm still technically considered early in my career. I plan to always keep shifting my focus, so you're in good company!
OK, this makes my list of your videos I watch when I'm feeling down and discouraged. (Watch her video on being an HSP). Thank you for helping me change my mind to switch / emphasize videos over direct emails (Yes, I do see how they work together). Thank You again for your course - I haven't had a chance to start it yet, but look forward to it!
Thank you for this. I've been interested in consulting clinicians in improving their private practice. I have a bit of imposter syndrome though and doubt myself because I wonder what makes me qualified (even though my business is doing very well and I have a lot of management experience with growing programs) as well as not quite sure what to cover. I feel like I'm still learning so how can I be the expert. Going to think on this more.
Go for it! Like I said in the video, the best route for something like this is to grow an audience. You can see if there's a platform that's a good fit for you and start making free content for folks on how to improve their practice. See what you think and if you like it, keep going!
I am literally going to sit down right now and do this. Thanks so much!!!! How did you learn how to start making and editing YT videos? This is the part that kind of scares me - and is overwhelming - so I've relied on Twitter mostly. It's simpler, but it's a different audience. I'm guessing you have a video on this somewhere!
Hi! This is brilliant but I am just so overwhelmed by the idea of where to start, or how to have the energy to spend 10-20 hours a week building a brand. Could you do a video on this? I’m exhausted after my FT job!
My only issue with this video is most of it is related to making a business with RUclips which is a very niche thing. It’s rare to find therapists that have a RUclips channel that actually generates some kind of income. It was more helpful to learn about more practical applications such as ways to get clients, scaling, billing etc. in order to run private practice and make six figures. Obviously we need multiple sources and think outside the box.
@@alineassadourian1299 Aw shucks 🥰 I use Final Cut Pro to make my videos. It has a steep learning curve, but you could use free software like iMovie to do the majority of things I do in my videos :)
Thank you!! You are awesome! I also watched your masters versus psyd income and have been debating between them. Lots of good info and you are funny and engaging. Thanks so much!
Hi Marie! Have learned so much from you and love your videos. I’m curious if you would share your video-making process. Do you make a written outline or script beforehand? Do you rehearse? Do you talk freely and then edit or record spoken sentences in segments? I’m trying to learn the best way to make videos that people can actually learn from. Thanks so much in advance!
Great questions! My videos are both highly scripted and heavily edited. I don't think this is required and I think most folks in this niche don't follow the same approach. I do speak a bit about my video process here: ruclips.net/video/cm527-qAqew/видео.html Hope this helps!
Thanks for the request! Are you asking for more detail about how much I get paid in each arena? Or possibly how I developed those income streams? As far as CPM, it can vary widely and I'm not educated enough to know which industries fare better and whether mental health videos would have a different CPM. Great question though!
@@PrivatePracticeSkills Both if you can! As that shows how much roughly each avenue has bought you so far as well as how you developed them. Yes as the CPM varies e.g. tech has a high CPM so i was looking to confirm whether that was the norm in mental health-related content as no one else has been as transparent as you have! Thank you for that.
Will you do a video on taxes? If you are making a 6-figure income, say about 115k, how much, as a business owner, of that do you actually hold on to after accounting for taxes?
What platform did you use to create your email list? I would love some guidance on that. Like do you use mailchimp or something like that? And, what platform did you use to create your course? I would love to create a course as I'm growing my list. Also! I'm an RD trying to get my practice off the ground, and I'm loving your channel! Thank you!
That's fair! I didn't share in this video that I really hustled at the beginning...I sometimes pulled 60 or 80 hours a week to make it happen. It was a hustle at the beginning to build. It's an important point to note that it is a sacrifice!
Thanks! Are you referring to completing hours for licensure? I do have a video where I share my story getting a postdoc in private practice if that might be helpful to you: ruclips.net/video/Gr_9uQrewMA/видео.html
Hah! I assure you I'm not superhuman. I am highly sensitive, which causes my system to shut down in most traditional employment contexts, but I do thrive when I get to work for myself and express my creativity! I believe each of us has our sweet spot where we thrive :)
I absolutely LOVE her honesty and candid nature! She deserves her success! What a wonderful role model and clinician!
You're too kind! And my hope in sharing is to encourage others that anyone can replicate this, as long as you're willing to do the work and follow the right strategy :)
I spent yesterday and today crying over a man for using up my time. After this video It changed what I'm going to spend my time with. Thank you so much for being so open and honest and helpful with this video. You deserve ALL the $$ :)
All the way from Mexico City, I admire your honesty and patiente. I really appreciate your videos, they do help.

One of your best videos yet!

Great watching your channel grow.

Nicely done, I'm on my way to 6 figures for 2021 I hope
That's amazing!
Man I love your stuff.
What site did you use for your practice email? And do you feel an EHR is necessary?

Love it! Please do more on each parts in more detail! Also is the high CPM for the mental health industry or for your channel only? TIA

I have a few! Here is one on finding your niche/specialty: ruclips.net/video/bh6bJRb7iwQ/видео.html

Brilliant… this is right on time.. of course 🖖🏼
The key is most people aren't in a position to work 20 hours a week for a year without being paid...
That's fair! I didn't share in this video that I really hustled at the beginning...I sometimes pulled 60 or 80 hours a week to make it happen. It was a hustle at the beginning to build. It's an important point to note that it is a sacrifice!
Do you offer an e course on building a therapy related business where you sell a service that’s not direct therapy (like what you are doing I guess 😊)
PRAYER:
- PERFECT HEALTH
- ABUNDANT WEALTH
- TRUE LOVE
Can you share the range of what you make 🙈
I think your style speaks to me, but have you made a video what comes after grad school?
Thanks! Are you referring to completing hours for licensure? I do have a video where I share my story getting a postdoc in private practice if that might be helpful to you: ruclips.net/video/Gr_9uQrewMA/видео.html
@@PrivatePracticeSkills I’ll check it out later and let you know and I have shared ur channel already with my graduated friends
congrats
Thanks for this! I'm working on building a channel to help people who are at risk for cancer or who have cancer eat a cancer fighting diet!
That is such a valuable topic to speak to! Good luck to you!
@@PrivatePracticeSkills Thanks! I've been watching you for a couple of months now - Your channel is great for other providers, too!
@@maryjohnsonmedmsnrd3149 I'm so glad it's applicable in various settings!

I just feel this is just so manipulative. Am I crazy?
Specifically How??? 🤔🤔
