Why, oh why, did I become a therapist? What was I thinking?!? Am I losing it? Or was I just misinformed?.... Join Therapy Tea hosts, Jazmin and Karen, two licensed professional counselors, every other Wednesday, as they, with the help of other mental health professionals, seek to find the answers to these deep, gut-wrenching, existential questions. Each episode, they interview fellow counselors and other professionals working in the mental health field to discuss mistakes they’ve made, career mis-steps, and those “ah-ha!” and “AHHHHHHH!!!!” moments that shift perspective. They cover the real-life practice of mental health work through a pretentious-free lens and reveal the out-of-the-textbook realities of counseling theories. All the while, they hope desperately to gain some hindsight insights on all the things they wish they had known before becoming counselors.

Episode #56
56. Getting in Trouble for Smiling and Being an Inpatient “Stayer” (ft. Lori Stelzer, LPC-S)
Aug 12, 20261h 47m
This week Karen learned that when it comes to practice management styles, she prefers the “unbundled” approach. When it comes to managing a solo private practice there are almost Too many different ways to do it; it becomes another place for decision fatigue to sink in. But one thing Karen’s using and loving is Ivy Pay. You can use this magic link to get $1000 in free charges: https://app.talktoivy.com/rTeVsZhSu5b (The link has Karen’s code.) This week we are sharing our conversation with Lori Stelzer who is a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in Texas. She holds a Bachelor of Psychology from Southern Illinois University-Carbondale and a Master of Mental Health Counseling from Capella University. Lori works at an in-patient rehab facility in Texas, The Meadows, where she is a family education therapist. With Lori we talk about what it’s like to be a “stayer” doing addiction-focused inpatient work. She does all the things, from running groups and working with providing psychoeducation, to supervising others and managing administrative tasks. Lori is a born educator and is always sharing nuggets of information and wisdom in our conversation. It’s also amazing to hear about the hurdles Lori has overcome to get to where she is now, from the death of a supervisor, to her own addiction recovery journey, to having to start over to get her internship hours, we’re just impressed Lori pushed through it all!

55. Making Imago Cool Again and Relationship Intensives Exclusively (ft. Shlomo Slatkin, LCPC)
Jul 29, 20261h 13m
This week Jazmin learned that her habits really do keep happening, even though she’s made some big changes. She shares what she’s been noticing about how taxing “small” "thoughtless" daily tasks can be and what impact it’s having on her to shift out of those as her work changes. How do you manage mundane, monotonous soul-sucking tasks?? How often are you checking your work email when you’re not *technically* working?? This week we are sharing our conversation with Rabbi Shlomo Slatkin who is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland. He holds both a Bachelor of Arts in Middle Eastern Studies from George Washington University in DC and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Loyola College in Baltimore. Shlomo is a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist and currently is in private practice where he works with couples, but he’s also on the faculty at the Imago Training Institute. With Shlomo we talk about what’s different about being a couples counselor vs. an individual counselor AND what’s unique about the Imago modality. Shlomo shares how his personally rewarding experience with Imago therapy motivated him to learn more about it, specialize in it and work exclusively with couples using this modality. We love that Shlomo shares his secret to navigating the marketing morass of private practice: marry a marketing minded Resources mentioned: Getting the Love You Want by Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt Doing Imago Relationship Therapy in the Space-Between: A Clinician's Guide by Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt Dr Joe Dispenza: https://drjoedispenza.com/ Imago Certification Training with Shlomo: https://themarriagerestorationproject.com/product/imago-certification-training/ Find Shlomo here: www.theMarriageRestorationProject.com PLEASE SUPPORT!

Jul 15, 20261h 14m
This week Karen learned it’s an absolute pain and the as to switch EHRs/practice management software systems in private practice. Karen shares about how it’s been a black hole of research, trial runs, and repetitive work trying to find a system that does just what she wants and not a ton more than that.

This week we are sharing our conversation with Jeremy McCall who is a Licensed Master Social Worker and Certified Mental Health Performance Coach in Michigan. He holds both a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work from Wayne State Universi ty.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
