Time. So many of the therapists I talk with share that they do not have enough time to do all the things they need to do, let alone the time or energy to pursue new ideas they are passionate about.
As we continue with the series of “Best of” posts highlighting some of my favorite resources, blog posts and strategies; we shift to those focused on the theme of time.
You can check out last month’s post about the best of my resources for overwhelmed therapists here.
Some Strategies for Therapists Looking to Free Up Time
Complete a time study. Track your activities for a minimum of one week to see exactly where you are spending your time, so that you can make adjustments as needed. Often, we are spending more time in certain areas of our practice than we really realize. A time study can help you determine what tasks you want to eliminate, table, delegate and/or outsource.
Use time blocks and batching. Read more about these approaches here.
