    In yet another installment of “Why haven’t we talked about this on the podcast yet??”, I have Dr. Matt Zakreski here to dive into neurodiversity-affirming assessment practices. Matt draws from years of experience and hundreds of speaking engagements on this topic during this conversation. Perhaps most importantly, he makes it okay to not have all the answers and to keep getting better in this area of practice. These are a few other topics that we tackle:

    • Definitions of neurodiversity and neurodiversity-affirming
    • Statistics on neurodiversity in our country right now
    • Testing-specific practices to be more affirming, all the way from website design to report-writing

    Today’s topic is incredibly important and useful for clinicians. I think most of us know that we’re subject to any number of biases in our work, but I would guess that an equal number of us are unsure of exactly how to practice differently. My guest, Dr. David Faust, is an expert in clinical decision-making. He’s here to share some of the concepts from his recent book, Applying Decision Research to Improve Clinical Outcomes, Psychological Assessment, and Clinical Prediction. These are just a few topics that we cover:

    • Why decision research is important for us
    • What are base rates, and how do we use them?
    • The role of overconfidence in clinical judgment
    • Strategies to integrate subjective and objective data in our evaluations

    Rachel Kapp and Stephanie Pitts from the Learn Smarter podcast are back to talk about AI in student learning and applications to educational therapy. Rachel and Steph have a unique perspective from working on the front lines with learners of all ages. As usual, our conversation takes a few twists and turns as we explore uses of AI for students. These are a few areas that we discuss:

    • Some of the most common applications of AI for school-age kids
    • School attitudes toward adoption of AI
    • Parent attitudes toward AI
    • Philosophical approaches to AI: is it ultimately good or bad for learners?

    Today we’re tackling an age-old chicken or egg question: do you hire first and hope the new clinician gets busy, or do you build out a lengthy waitlist before hiring? As usual, the answer is “it depends”! We’ll talk about when it makes sense to choose one strategy over the other, and when to forget about hiring altogether.

    Today is another business episode focusing on finances. The longer I do this, the more convinced I am that having a good handle on finances drives literally everything in your practice. Unless you’re running a practice as a hobby with no regard for profit or financial sustainability, you have to know your numbers. The trouble is that many people don’t know how to start getting a handle on finances. Today, we’ll talk about the financial model that I use and how it can be helpful in your practice.

    For most of us, leadership is the most challenging aspect of growing a practice. Not only we were we not taught how to run a business in graduate school, but we certainly weren’t taught how to be an actual LEADER of said business. My guest today, Nicole McCance, figured out the leadership formula and scaled to a multi-seven figure practice before selling it and retiring. During our conversation, we focus on Nicole’s idea of “positive leadership,” a concept born from positive parenting and positive psychology. Like many of her business strategies, Nicole developed a clearly defined, four-step process to help us engage in positive leadership. We talk through her approach and many other things during this conversation. Enjoy!
