I’m pleased to be officially advertising that I am offering clinical supervision after completing my Clinical Supervision course last month 🎉

My approach to supervision is collaborative, process-oriented, trauma-informed and rooted in curiosity. Together, we’ll explore not only what’s happening for your clients, but also what’s happening within the therapeutic relationship—and within you as the therapist.

Whether you’re newer to the profession or simply looking for a space to continue growing, supervision can be one of the most meaningful investments you make in yourself and your clients.

I think the best supervision happens when we can be honest about the moments we’re unsure, the cases that feel complex, and the questions we don’t always ask out loud.

If you’re looking for a supervisor who will support you while also encouraging your growth, I’d love to connect.🌱

Learn more through the link in my bio, and reach out through my website for a free exploratory call if you’re interested in working together!

Therapists, we aren’t meant to hold all the pieces in isolation. Whether you need a soft space to land and look at your countertransference, a collaborative peer to look at a complex case, or a strategic partner to audit your business infrastructure and have a cheerleader along the way -I’m here to hold that space with you.

I’m so excited to share that I have officially completed my Clinical Supervision Course and am officially adding Clinical Supervision to my offerings for therapists!

Clearlyyyy anxiety lives in therapists too 😅 - I’ve asked myself all of these questions as I’ve started my private practice journey, and heard a lot of them echo’d in other therapists as well.

Starting a business is a scary and overwhelming thing, and also can come with great rewards. Let’s not forget that our worst-case-scenario thoughts aren’t always the end of the story ☺️

If you’re looking for mentorship or support for your private practice journey my calendar is open with spots for new therapist clients and I would love to support you!

Building a successful private practice doesn’t happen overnight. You went to school to be a therapist but we never learned the systems and business behind a private practice. It is about so much more than just the clinical hours—it’s about the systems that keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
Running a multidisciplinary group practice in Vancouver has taught me that sustainability comes from structure. From finding the right tools to protecting your personal time, these are the pillars that actually built my practice:
* A seamless booking system: Tools like make life easier for both you and your clients—and you can get your first month free with my code AMYKOBELT1MO.
* Targeted marketing: Focus on a strategy that works for your specific niche and goals.
* SEO-optimized website: Being findable by the right clients is essential for growth.
* Structured admin time: Pairing paperwork with a ritual you enjoy, like a latte at a local cafe, keeps the momentum going.
* Clinical and business support: Investing in supervision and private practice consultation was the best move I made for my own professional health!
* A sustainable schedule: Building a life-giving practice means creating time blocks that work for your lifestyle, not against it.

Private practice doesn’t have to be overwhelming. It should give you the freedom and sustainability you need to do your best work.

📌 Save this post to use as a checklist for your own practice systems!

Lessons I wish I knew sooner about private practice 🫶🏻

I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting about my private practice journey as I’ve been working with more therapists in private practice consulting and so..voila! I made a new post. My recent conversations have reminded me of the lessons I learned in my early days of my practice. Swipe through to see my early (and important!) lessons from building my practice. 🪴

If you find yourself struggling to build (or get started building!), overwhelmed by the slow months, or just wanting some mentorship and support from someone who has been there, I would love to work with you!

Therapists: what’s one lesson you’ve learned in private practice?! Would love to hear all the things you wish you knew sooner to share our knowledge around ❤️

Last year I came back to Colombia by myself for a month and I was definitely nervous, despite lot’s of experience solo travelling before. This post was in my drafts and I completely forgot about it, but now that I’m back again doing the solo-travel thing I thought now was a good time to remind me of the lessons I learned last year, and share it with you! 🌎

After three years of traveling with my husband, I wondered if my “solo-traveler spirit” was still in there. It turned out to be like putting on an old pair of jeans—the fit felt a little different, but it still felt like me.
Traveling solo reminded me of a few things that I am trying to apply to my life outside of travel as well!
1️⃣ Independence is a muscle. It might feel stiff if you haven’t used it for a while, but it’s still there.
2️⃣ Your time is your own. You are allowed to ask: “Is this how I want to spend my day?” instead of defaulting to what everyone else prefers.
3️⃣ Growth and vulnerability are a package deal. Showing up alone is hard, but the pride on the other side of that “push” is worth it.
I realized that building a life (and a career) on my own terms can feel like this at times. It’s a lot of responsibility, and the directions can be confusing (literally, I cannot even get where I need to go even with Google maps, your girl is DIRECTIONALLY challenged 😅😂), but it’s the only way to ensure that your final destination is somewhere you actually want to be.

I hope this can inspire you to take the leap and plan that trip - even if no one can come with you! I’d love to hear from you in the comments - what have you learned about yourself while doing something alone? ⬇️✨

Over the past year, as I’ve been working with therapists starting their private practices, Jane has consistently been at the top of my list as one of my foundational recommendations. I’ve been using for over 7 years, and it has only gotten better with time—truly helping me run my practice smoothly, from wherever I am in the world.

This is why I’m so excited to share that I’m now a Jane Ambassador!! 🎉 If you choose to sign up for Jane using my link, I’m offering a free 25-minute private practice consultation as a thank-you. We can use the time however feels most helpful—problem-solving, planning, going through the foundations of building a practice, marketing support, or simply talking things through ☺️

If you’re feeling unsure or want more information about Jane or my private practice consultation sessions, feel free to send me a DM. Here's my Jane affiliate link:

Thank you .canada for having me today! It was a pleasure to teach on risk assessments to two of your counselling co-horts! It doesn’t feel like that long ago I was in the student chair learning all of this for the first time, but time flies when you’re having fun! 🎉

I don’t advertise this often, but if you are looking for clinical support I do offer supervision for therapists in addition to business consulting for your private practice. If you’re interested in either of these services feel free to reach out here or through my website :)

Do you dream of a vacation where you don’t secretly check your email? Because I sure do!

I just came back from an amazing two weeks off, and I can tell you: this was the first vacation in a LONG time where I was completely disconnected from both client work and running my practice.
I’ll be honest, it was scary and a stretch at times—and there were a few things I had to loop into on the group practice side—but wow, did it feel amazing to go on vacation without doing sessions in the mornings before exploring. It allowed me to truly put my “therapist hat” away and focus on traveling, learning, resting, and exploring.

If you’re a private practice therapist, taking time off often feels impossible because you worry about client care and cash flow. But your ability to show up for clients is directly tied to your ability to step away!
I condensed everything I learned into these 5 Non-Negotiables for a Guilt-Free Vacation. Swipe through to see the steps I take every time:
    1    Budgeting - shoutout to for her amazing budget template. I use it religiously and it’s helped me a lot in feeling great about going on vacation when there’s no vacation pay!
    2    Boundaries: set boundaries with yourself - no checking that email even if you want to! And make sure those boundaries are communicated in your email responder
    3    Back up: making sure you have ethical support and coverage for when you’re away. Don’t be afraid to ask your colleagues for help!

Which step do you struggle with the most? Let me know in the comments! 👇

If you’re ready to build a practice that truly funds your life and your travels and want support, you’ve found the right account :) DM me or visit the link in my bio to book a private practice consultation with me! ✨

This summer isn’t just about beach reads and iced lattes, it’s also for learning how to take up space as a therapist 💛

I’m a summer lover, and yes- I’m also living for Wednesdays (iykyk 👀) this summer ☀️

Here’s the real encouragement for my fellow therapists:

-You can enforce your cancellation policy without guilt
-Actually disconnect and take that vacation (your clients will be okay 💕)
-Be brave enough to launch the thing that’s not totally perfect 🫶🏻

If you’re in the season where things feel scary and expansive - this one’s for you ✨

Would love to hear from you in yeh comments: what’s your summer lesson?! ☀️

Also, I have to ask… or ? ( forever though)
