For any therapists that work in private practice or in outpatient services. I’m wondering what you have found effective in helping mitigate waitlists for clients and getting clients into therapy faster. For example ways to reduce wait times from 3 months out to 1 month or less.

I own a private mental telehealth practice and also a tech business focused on mental and behavioral health. When therapists don’t have openings, we encourage them to allow the patient or client to work with us on personal or professional development coaching based on their inherent behaviors until their therapists schedule opens up. It’s a cash paying service but does “buy” the therapist time so they don’t lose the patient.

We need to STOP glamorizing overworking. Please.

The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn’t something to be applauded.

To many people wear their burnout as a badge of honor. It’s time to consider pivoting.

And it needs to change.

Any women here with lean PCOS? I do not ovulate on my own (metformin regulated my periods but I still don’t ovulate) and am moving from three cycles of Clomid/IUI to IVF soon. No other issues have been found other than my PCOS (HSG shows tubes open). Curious about your experiences. And the reason I mentioned lean PCOS is because it seems for others with PCOS part of the fertility path is diet/exercise/weight loss but I am already very tiny.

Hi everyone,
So I had my NIPT and NT scans last week and I’ve been getting pieces of the results back from my doctor in the patient portal. All seems okay but I’m a bit confused. Does anyone know if FirstScreen is the same thing as NIPT? I was under the impression that NIPT was in 90th percent of certainty for Down syndrome but the result we got, labeled FirstScreen indicate 83% certainty so I’m confused if there are more results coming? I messaged the doctor but haven’t heard back yet.
