FIT and outcome measurement are NOT therapy methods. No matter how often I say this to people, it is hard for psychologists to grasp the difference as most of our training and CPD is all about therapy models and methods.
It was not what outcome measurement taught me so much as how do I get my supervisees and staff in my practice to implement it?

I think the most obvious barrier for psychologists is that we don’t know what to do to improve our effectiveness.
If you want to get your head around the change that is ahead, and particularly if you have more years ahead in our workforce than you have achieved to date, I would encourage you to consider developing your own personal Board of Directors (BOD).
Like most businesses, psychology practices are facing both internal and external challenges in the current volatile environment we are working in.
I am known these days as a business coach, supervisor, and mentor, but before all of that, I was a practitioner and still am. I have a few suggestions about practice as a psychologist.
