Episode 30: Do I Even Have Anything Meaningful To Say? [Featuring Shaelene Kite]
All Things Private Practice Podcast
I've Got You, I'm Going to Move Forward
"I think people are out there, and they need real people," she says. "We've proven that through a pandemic, to see so many people, like you said, showing up in authentic spaces." She adds: "It doesn't fit for everyone, and i don't think tha people should be who they aren't"
Do I Even Have Anything Meaningful To Say? Putting yourself out there can be horrifying, however, it leads to opportunities and growth.
How often do we ask ourselves, why me? What do I have to say that's different from someone else?
How often do we actually say "YES" to opportunities and put ourselves out there?
During this episode, I talk with Shaelene Kite, LPC, DBT-LBC, ACS, RYT, the Owner of DBT of South Jersey and RebelMente Coaching.
Powerful quotes include:
- "The world need's everyone's gifts. The saddest thing in the world is wasted talent."
- "Use fear as a gas pedal instead of a brake."
- "I feel really good about what I'm putting into the world but I'm only going to be able to impact so many people."
- "Putting myself out there has led to some incredible experiences that I would never have dreamed of."

The Receptionist for iPad

From new patients faced with an empty lobby and no idea where to find their therapist to clinicians with a session running over time and the doorbell ringing, some of the most anxiety-ridden moments of a therapy appointment happen before a session even starts. The Receptionist for iPad, helps you tackle some of that pre-appointment apprehension and anxiety. The Receptionist for iPad is an easy-to-use digital client check-in system that helps your visitors check in securely to their appointments and notify their practitioners of their arrival via SMS, email, or your preferred channel.

Resilient Mind Counseling
It's Patrick. Some of you may know that I own a group therapy practice in North Carolina, Resilient Mind Counseling. We specialize in supporting the Neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, and Black, Brown, and Asian communities online and across North Carolina. We also have limited in-person openings at our offices in Asheville and Cary. We really love working with clients who are coming to terms with both Autism and ADHD discoveries later in life or questioning, as well as the intersections of race, gender, identity, and orientation. All of our therapists have lived experience and identify as AuDHD, Autistic, or ADHD. Our team of affirming therapists offers a safe, anti-racist, anti-oppressive, inclusive, and accessible space where you can show up exactly as you are—no masking, no judgment, and no need to make eye contact, just real connection and healing. We accept most commercial insurances like Blue Cross Blue Shield, United, Aetna, and Med Cost, as well as self-pay options. We currently have openings for new clients. Visit our website at resilientmindcounseling.com. You can also text or call our HIPAA-compliant phone line at (828) 515-1246, or email us at scheduling@resilientmindcounseling.com.
