Who am I? What do I bring to the table? 

​

Soteldo Psychotherapy, Counseling and Consulting, RP, ABA, MA, CCC, PMP

​

I am running my private practice in Ottawa and have been since I graduated in March 2020. As COVID began, I started my business journey in this industry. It took two offices, several hours of non-paid research, calling connections, trying out different pricing strategies, different marketing platforms, and all of the CRPO specifics regarding progress notes, files, finances, insurance, and standards for interacting with clients, among many more.

​

What's my background? Maybe you think it was easy for me. It was not at all. I have a family to care for on a full-time basis, I had a job to upkeep to pay the bills, had just finished the internship at Yorkville so I was broke. I found the strength to do this and hope to infect you with the same joy, peace and determination I have had to open this business.

​

What have I accomplished to date? After 100+ clients coming through my office, I have had a regular schedule with people coming regularly for about 4 years now. I have had to increase prices gradually, with all of the regulatory rules in mind. I have learned about communicating with clients, how to schedule, what software to use, and the provincial regulations on zoom calls, text message, Whatsapp messenger, and more. I have a strong, secure, and, most importantly, helpful therapeutic relationship with all my clients. Also, after many supervision and direct client contact hours, I have learned so much about this skill, and I genuinely love it! Helping professionals work hard, and there are almost no days off! But we keep pushing!

​

Description of workshop:

​

This is going to be a super-dynamic 4-week course where we embark in the journey of opening your private practice together. We will work on your business plan together, you will get a free hour coaching follow-up consulting session with me, and we will review and assess your credit report and see what can be done there!

​

In this workshop, We will be together for 2 hours each day, four days in total and four weeks in total. We will have independent and collective time to work on things one step at a time, everything will be guided, you will not be alone ever. We will also of course have question and answer phases throughout the workshop to tackle the main concerns you may have.

​

This workshop will be completing the Business Plan, the website structure, the ad avenues, the CRPO standards and competencies; we will conduct a SWOT analysis, make sure you are building your credentials and portfolio, as well as personal branding image for the business. We will also be working on your competitive advantage and go in detail into a spectrum that I created, the compassion-based marketing tactic. You will learn more about this in the workshop.

​

What are some other things you will be learning about with me?

​

1. Incorporate versus sole-proprietor

2. HST/GST and corporate taxes

3. Permits from CRPO re: advertising.

4. Domain name and website hosting.

5. Supervisors: CRPO-approved, how to charge insurance to clients, what type of supervisor do you need for insurance? is it the same one you will need for supervision with clients? and so much more on this! My journey will be highlighted.

6. Advertising, campaigns, techniques, strategies, learning curves, and more!

​

I am a clinical member of the College for Registered Psychotherapists, the Ontario Society of Registered Psychotherapists and the Canadian Counseling and Psychotherapy Association. I work with different modalities, including Psychoanalysis, Mindfulness CBT, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Applied Behavioural Analysis.

​

I run several workshops throughout the year. Psychoeducation is a big part of my practice as I believe in spreading knowledge to empower others.
