Best-selling author of more than a dozen books, award-winning educator, and founder and director of the Therapy that Works Institute, Dr. Diane Gehart knows a thing or two about helping mental health clinicians build a profitable practice. Her work has been featured in newspapers, radio shows, and television worldwide, and she’s trained thousands of mental health clinicians during her career. We were thrilled to get the chance to partner with her last month in a live workshop.
