Are you caught in the telehealth vs. in-person therapy debate? In today's episode, I tackle the question that’s on many therapists' minds: do you really need to have an office to succeed in private practice?

Since the pandemic shifted our industry toward virtual sessions, many of us have gotten comfortable working from home. But there's a growing number of clients specifically seeking in-person therapy experiences. So I'm sharing my own journey with telehealth and why having a physical office space might be worth considering - even if it’s just for one day a week. From the unexpected marketing advantage of Google Business Profiles to the benefits of work-home separation, I'll break down the pros and cons without sugarcoating the realities.

Whether you're committed to your virtual practice or feeling the pull to return to an office setting, this episode offers a no-nonsense look at what might work best for your private practice and lifestyle.
