Episode 43. Overcoming "I'm Not Good Enough": Top Tips for Therapists In Business

In this powerful episode of Thriving Therapist Talk: Business and Marketing Tips for Therapists, Nadene Van Der Linden explores the emotional and mindset challenges that often resurface for therapists as they grow their businesses - especially the persistent “I’m not good enough” belief.

Drawing from recent coaching client work and her own journey, Nadene unpacks how core schemas like defectiveness and shame can re-emerge during times of personal stress or professional expansion. She shares practical strategies to identify and challenge limiting beliefs, shift toward a strengths-based mindset, and take meaningful action to build confidence and momentum.

Whether you're launching a private practice or expanding into new income streams, this episode offers a compassionate and empowering roadmap to lead with confidence and clarity.
