Welcome back for another episode of the Future Template Parent Podcast! Today we’re digging into one of the biggest mindset hurdles therapists face when considering a shift to EMDR intensives: What if my clients leave when I change my model?
In this honest conversation, I’m sharing the real fears that came up for me, how I navigated them, and what actually happened when I transitioned away from weekly sessions. We’ll talk about having hard conversations, letting go of people-pleasing, and stepping into a more aligned, sustainable practice—even when it feels scary.
Whether you’re considering switching to intensives or already on your way, this episode will help you move through the mindset blocks and hear what’s really possible.
Topics covered:
- Therapist fears about change and client retention
- How to have courageous conversations with clients
- Managing your own fear of incompetence
- What marketing intensives can bring up emotionally
- My personal story of switching to an intensive model
- Client responses (the good, the hard, the surprising)
