(#217) Getting Licensed, Book Sales, and 9-5 Exit Plan w/ Dr. Rochelle
Dr. Ro understands what it's like to run your business like a marathon. After getting introduced to the possibilities of having a profitable private practice in 2018, she finally made a decision to leave her job in 2021 while low-key building her business underground. She utilized the program which fits best for her, took fast action, and applied every information she had for private practice after getting licensed.
Join us in this episode as Dr. Ro and I discuss her journey from passing the licensure exam to leaving her 9 to 5 job. We talk about how she eventually scaled her business, positioned herself and her expertise in front of her target audience, and utilized the DTA platform to draft out her exit plan. Moreover, she shares how the DTA community played a very pivotal role in her product launch— which led to the successful pre-selling of her books.

Guest Bio:
Rochelle Robinson, Psy.D is a Licensed Psychologist located in the State of New York. As the owner of Pivotal Point Psychological Consulting, PLLC, she aims to provide culturally- competent support through talk-therapy, group therapy, and psychoeducational workshops for teenagers, parents, young adults, and faith-based communities.
As a college professor and licensed school psychologist with over 10 years of experience in public schools, Dr. Rochelle knows firsthand the challenges young people and their parents face daily. She’s also realized that many issues transitional-aged youth face cannot be addressed in the school setting. More support is needed for families than schools can offer. With this in mind, she aims to provide the best psychological experience possible by delivering talk therapy and psychoeducational workshops to teens, young adults, and those looking for a change. She also works collaboratively with parents to help meet the needs of challenging teenagers. Through the use of cognitive-behavioral therapy, reality therapy, and culturally-competent interventions, she educates clients by assisting them in realizing the power within themselves to make decisions with confidence.
