Overcoming Fears and Trusting The Process with Karen

Karen, a clinical psychologist in Cape Cod, had worked in the public sector for years and loved every second of it. She loved the predictability and the regular paycheck but this would change abruptly.

 Her health began to deteriorate to the point she could no longer hold a regular 9-5 position or work under fluorescent lighting. She began to lose self-confidence as she was forced to live off of disability for two years. But, Karen didn't lose hope and still felt she had work to do. With uncertainty, she made the jump into private practice

After joining zynnyme’s Business School for Therapists, Karen was able to overcome her fears, work around her illness, and trust the process. She is now coaching, running her own clinic, and evaluating for a school district while managing her chronic illness. 

Don’t miss Karen’s story about how she moved forward with unpredictability.
