Silence in therapy sessions can feel incredibly uncomfortable — especially for new therapists.

If you’ve ever sat in session wondering:

“Should I say something?”
“Am I doing this wrong?”
“Is the client expecting me to fix this moment?”

You’re not alone.

In this video, I break down how to handle silence in therapy sessions with confidence.

We’ll cover:

✔️ Why silence happens in therapy�

✔️ Why therapists often feel anxious during silence�
✔️ When silence is actually helpful for clients�
✔️ When it may need gentle intervention�
✔️ Practical ways to tolerate and work with silence

Learning to sit with silence is an essential clinical skill that many therapists were never taught in grad school and I’m here to help!

Therapeutic presence is one of the most important skills in therapy — and it’s rarely taught in grad school.

New therapists often focus on interventions, techniques, and saying the “right” thing. But what actually creates safety and progress in therapy is presence.

In this video, I break down:

✔️ What therapeutic presence really means�
✔️ Why presence matters more than perfect technique�
✔️ How therapist anxiety blocks attunement�
✔️ Practical ways to strengthen your presence in session�
✔️ How to tolerate silence and trust yourself

If you’re a new therapist, associate clinician, LCSW, LPC, or LMFT who feels pressure to perform in session — this episode is for you.

No one talks about how loud imposter syndrome can be when you’re a new therapist.
You finished grad school.�You passed the exam.�You’re licensed.
And yet… you still feel like you’re pretending.
In this video, I share how imposter syndrome shows up in session, how it affects your confidence, and what you can do about it.
If you’ve ever left a session overanalyzing everything you said — this one’s for you.

Intake sessions can feel overwhelming for new therapists — especially when grad school didn’t teach you how to actually structure them. In this week’s episode of my Youtube channel, The Keys to Therapy, I share how to run an intake session as a new therapist (without overthinking It). I walk you through a simple intake framework that helps you feel confident, grounded, and present with clients and provide a handout that lists the key elements of an intake to make your first session with a client run smoothly.

Having a CAQH profile is essential if you’re going to work at a place that takes insurance. It’s an admin aspect of being a therapist that is rarely discussed in school, yet most therapists have a CAQH profile and need one in order to get paid by insurance companies.

In this week’s episode of The Keys to Therapy, I share what a CAQH profile is. I discuss how it is used, how to register for one, and share tips on how to make sure you aren’t taken advantage of by your employer when it comes to owning your own CAQH information.

After working on my YouTube channel for therapists these last few years, I finally met the metrics to be part of YouTube’s partner program for monetization 🥳🤑

I made my channel, the Keys to Therapy, to provide a free resource to new therapists who are coming up in this field and making little to no money. I’ve loved the feedback I’ve received so far and I’m really excited to continue growing the channel and training newbies about the real aspects of therapy.

NPI numbers are assigned to every therapist. Yet many have never heard of them, have no idea how to get one, or understand what it’s used for.

In this week’s episode of The Keys to Therapy, I share what an NPI number is. I discuss how it is used, how to apply for one, and share tips on how to make sure you aren’t taken advantage of by your employer when it comes to owning your own NPI information.

Writing notes are one of the most intimidating parts of being a new therapist. There’s often so much content that happens in sessions that therapists overthink about what to document. Many often over document, which can be time consuming and possibly harmful to the client in the future.

In this week’s episode of The Keys to Therapy, I share the top 5 things that need to be a part of every clinical progress note. I discuss why each one is essential and provide a few tips on how to document them efficiently.
