E120: Breaking Free From Insurance Panel Burnout: Beth’s Story.

In this episode, we’re speaking with Beth Klein, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and LIMB Academy grad based in Minnesota. Beth specializes working with high-achieving women who struggle with imposter syndrome, social anxiety, and relationship boundaries. 

Beth gets candid about her journey from insurance panel burnout to a thriving premium private pay practice. She shares how she went from seeing up to eight clients a day, working weekends, drowning in paperwork, and feeling isolated—to charging $250 per session, seeing ten clients a week, and maintaining a schedule that actually supports her life. 

If you’re feeling burnt out, undervalued, or unsure how to make the shift to private pay, Beth’s experience will give you real-life inspiration and tactical strategies for your own journey.
