When Adina Babad first found Lean In. MAKE BANK., they were charging around $110/session, fully paneled with insurance, overwhelmed, and wondering how much longer they could keep doing it.
Today, they charge $300/session, have left insurance panels behind, are seeing fewer clients, earning $10K+ months, and have built a practice that actually feels sustainable.
But this episode isn't about marketing hacks or overnight success.
It's about the uncomfortable work of trusting yourself, challenging deeply held beliefs about money, and learning that the biggest obstacle to premium fees often isn't strategy—it's the mindset underneath it all.
If you've ever thought, "Other therapists can do it, but not me," this episode is for you.
IN THIS EPISODE WE COVER How Adina went from earning about $110/session on insurance panels to $300/session in private pay.
Why leaving insurance wasn't just a business decision—it was a trust-in-yourself decision.
The fear of "betting on yourself" and what finally helped them move forward anyway.
Why borrowing someone else's belief in you can be enough until you develop your own.
The mindset work therapists try to skip—and why strategy alone won't get you premium fees.
