170. Becoming a Traveling Therapist as a Single Mom with Carly Kerr

Kym Tolson Episode 170

Ever wonder if you could build a therapy practice that supports your dreams of traveling the world while raising a child? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I chat with Carly Kerr, Founder & Therapist at AZ Synergy Counseling, about becoming a traveling therapist as a single mom. Carly’s story is raw, real, and incredibly inspiring.

She opens up about navigating burnout, ADHD, private practice headaches, and a surprise early maternity leave. Through it all, Carly found her way to Portugal, where she discovered a sense of peace and purpose that changed everything. She’s now planning her move abroad and building a business and life that finally feels good.

In This Episode, We Explore…

  • Carly’s journey from teacher to therapist to becoming a a traveling therapist
  • What burnout taught her about asking for help and setting limits
  • How a Portugal scouting trip helped her find her “home”
  • Navigating international moves with a toddler (and her dad!)
  • Creating a lifestyle-first business as a therapist and single mom
