64. Pay Your Dues, Kid
Can therapists work in private practice right away, or is there an unwritten rule that we have to first pay our dues in community mental health?

We explore why it's important to consider all settings when thinking about internship and practicum, what the phrase "boots on the ground" really means, and the helpful reminder that therapists are needed in all settings.
