The longer you practice as a therapist does not correlate with improved outcomes.

Time is not enough. To improve, you need to work at it. This is true in sports, music and yes, as a clinician working in mental health.

In this part 2 of our discussion with Dr. Ahmad, he touches on common struggles he experienced early in his clinical rotations and how clinical training needs to evolve towards deliberate practice.

Dr. Rizwan Ahmad is a Licensed Psychologist in Pennsylvania and Clinical Director at Center for Integrated Behavioral Health.

Dr. Ahmad specializes in working with adolescents (ages 12+) and adults of all ages, with expertise in the application of CBT for individuals struggling with a variety of mood, anxiety, and behavioral concerns.
