Über diesen Podcast
Ever felt like being a great therapist, having a successful practice, and living a life you love are somehow mutually exclusive? If so, you're in the right place.
The Bad Therapist Show is the go-to resource for established solo therapists and group practice owners who want to grow profitable businesses, lead with confidence, and create more freedom, flexibility, and fulfillment in their lives.
Hosted by Felicia Keller Boyle, aka The Bad Therapist®, LMFT, former six-figure private practice owner, therapist business coach, and creator of the Liberated Business™ method, this show challenges the belief that therapists have to choose between helping people, making money, and enjoying their lives.
Through her coaching, courses, and innovative private practice fee calculator, The Magic Sheets™, Felicia has helped hundreds of therapists build more profitable practices, create additional income streams, and step into true business ownership—without sacrificing the work they love or the life they’re building.
Each week, you'll hear honest conversations about private practice growth, marketing, leadership, money, boundaries, identity, and the realities of running a therapy business.
Whether you're growing a solo practice, leading a group practice, or building revenue streams beyond the therapy room, you'll learn how to think like a CEO, scale sustainably, and build a business that supports your life—not the other way around.
Tune in for answers to questions such as:
👉🏽How do I grow my private practice without sacrificing my personal life?
👉🏽What are the best marketing strategies for established therapists?
👉🏽How do I raise my rates with confidence?
👉🏽How do I grow my income beyond one-to-one therapy?
👉🏽What does it take to transition from therapist to CEO?
👉🏽How do I build a business that supports the life I actually want?
You don't have to choose between being an exceptional therapist, a successful business owner, and a whole human.
Follow the show wherever you listen to podcasts and start building a business that gives you more income, more freedom, and more of what matters most.
Because bad therapists make the best therapists.
