I’m in a position where I just got news of something awful happening to a new client.

It’s very upsetting and jarring news, but due to the nature of what has happened, I feel like I can’t safely express to anyone that something has happened. To be clear, this is not a case where emergency services or child protection agencies need to be contacted.

Due to the nature of what’s happened, and the likelihood that it will be in the news, I can’t even say to my family, “hey I need some time because I’m update due to a client (very general statement expressing the severity of the situation).”

I feel trapped and sad. Does anyone have tips on how to handle such a situation?

Hi All!

Does anyone here have experience using Simple Practice as their platform for documentation and intake paperwork?

I’m starting my own company, and plan on being the sole practitioner for the foreseeable future. I’m trying to decide if I should create my own documentation system from scratch to save money, or purchase a subscription to a system.

I will NOT be accepting insurance, so I don’t need to worry about billing private insurance companies. But I do want to accept DD waivers. I’m ok with doing the waiver billing on my own without a system to help me. So I’m not super concerned with finding a system that can do those things for me.

What have you all done?

Any and all advice is welcome!!

Hi all.

I’m looking for an app that can track a token economy. I’ve got a board where money/tokens are earned for target behaviors, but we aren’t always near the board when I need to add which makes things difficult.

Anyone have an app suggestion?

I’d prefer something free, but I’m ok with paying for something quality.

How do you greet people or expect them to greet you when meeting in person for the first time?
Wave
Handshake
Hug
Kiss on the cheek

I always feel so awkward and hesitate to try and she what the other person is going to do.

How have you all told your kids about their dad? My kids are 8 now and I need to tell them. I have some ideas of how to do it, but I’ve got cold feet.
