On the Practice of Therapy Podcast, Rachel Harrison recounts the organic and somewhat accidental evolution of her practice, emphasizing the importance of hiring the right staff and fostering a supportive team. Initially lacking a grand plan, Rachel's practice grew through serendipitous opportunities and learning from other group practice owners. Her trauma-focused practice aims to provide a comfortable, non-clinical environment and has expanded across Maryland, Delaware, and Pennsylvania. Rachel underscores the need for hiring clinicians who align with her practice's culture, advocating for an "abundance mentality" where practices support each other. Reflecting on her decision to specialize in trauma, she highlights the benefits of having a niche, which has helped attract the right clients and therapists. Rachel has also founded the Trauma Specialist Training Institute and ventured into podcasting exploring innovative approaches to mental health. Transitioning from therapist to business owner, she acknowledges the new skills required for running a business and the ongoing evolution in the mental health field.
