The Traveling Therapist Podcast
Hi, I'm Kym Tolson, and I'm the traveling therapist. It's my passion to teach therapists how to navigate online private practices and multiple income streams so they can travel the world. I'm a digital nomad. With a virtual insurance based private therapy practice and a multi six figure coaching business. I'm obsessed with entrepreneurship and developing tools that can help therapists live an adventurous lifestyle. In this podcast, I will discuss my journey as a digital nomad. I'll chat with other traveling therapists and help you navigate the complexities of running an online insurance based practice. I'm so glad to have you with me on this journey.

173. Scaling a Private Practice While Traveling with Dr. Elizabeth Carr
Ever wonder how you could run a successful therapy business while living life on the road? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I chat with Dr. Elizabeth Carr, founder and CEO of Kentlands Psychotherapy, about scaling a private practice from anywhere, even an Airstream camper. Elizabeth shares how her practice grew from a solo venture into a thriving team of over 20 clinicians, all while she and her husband embraced a full-time travel lifestyle with their dog Riley and cat Atticus.
She breaks down the mindset shifts, leadership changes, and contingency planning that helped her transition from full-time clinician to full-time CEO. If you're dreaming of scaling your business, creating flexibility, and maybe even selling it one day, this episode is packed with insight.

- How Dr. Carr transitioned from Navy psychologist to group practice owner
- Why she restructured her role to support a travel lifestyle
