[Update] here is the information about who the Secretary of the ACA is https://theaca.net.au/board-and-gover... , however again, no easily / readily accessible information on their contact details. Could the statement, "A member will not make any derogatory or insulting remark against the Association" be perceived as a restriction to your free speech as a member of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA)? What if the ACA didn't provide you with a definition of what a derogatory or insulting remark was? And what if the Code of Ethics and Practice requires you as a member, to take your concern only to the Secretary and then to abide by their direction to you, yet the information on who the Secretary is, is not readily accessible (ie, they are not included on the website with the rest of the Employees), nor is their contact information readily accessible and nor is any information provided about the Directions that the Secretary can provide to you? The latest version of the Code of Ethics and Practice V16 seems to be largely consistent with its previous V15 except for the introduction of 16.5: Responsibility to Colleagues and Others, subsection iv. My guidance to members of the ACA is to reflect on the newest clause and consider requesting definitions of 'criticism', 'derogatory remark', and 'insulting remark' are included in the Definitions section of the Code; that the details and contact information for the Secretary be included in 16.5 (iv) for ease of reference and that a list of Directions that can be made by the Secretary are also included for transparency. This aside, other suggestions would be for the ACA to incorporate inclusive language in the Code and to include definitions of Counsellors v Registered Counsellors. This is important as the two terms are used at different times throughout the document without explanation. It is difficult for members to know what applies to them (or not) without such definitions. The podcast you are about to listen to is a side-by-side comparison of the previous version of the Code with the newest version. I am not a member of the ACA and have attempted to be impartial with respect to the critique / overview of the Code. Any opinions expressed in the video are my own and are my professional opinion only. All comments, thoughts and questions on this video are welcome if they are respectful. I love hearing different perspectives, different points of view and differing opinion and believe that's a wonderful way for us all to learn from each other.  If you would rather watch the video and see the side-by-side comparison, you can do so here. #aca #counsellors #codeofethics

TherapistSEO™ I 've just released a Google Chrome Extension called Therapist SEO™ to help you with your website. With just one click, you'll see what's working and what's not. It includes copy-swaps ie 'instead of this, write this', prompts you can use with Claude or ChatGPT, and more. I also know how easy it is to get overwhelmed, which is why it checks your website just one page at a time and includes visual cues ie green for it's working great, orange for 'it needs fixing but not urgent' and red for 'lets get it done as a priority'. The problem of having a visible website has been compounded by AI in some ways too. All you need to do is jump into Google and ask, 'do I need a referral to see a Psych?' and you'll be shown an AI summary before anything else. And, while you personally might not be a fan, the reality for your business is that without your website being optimised for it, again, you're missing out. And so this tool also helps you with AI optimisation.   I want your practice to surface when clients are Googling for help. You're good at what you do and your services are needed, so you need to be found. And I know it can feel hard or boring or confusing and so my intention here has been to make this as easy as possible, minimum viable effort for you but with pleasing results.   I'll pop the link below in the comments for anyone that would like to take a look.

You've heard the saying, "It's not you, it's me"? Well, when it comes to the business of private practice, I want to say, "It's not you, it's the numbers". So many women in private practice question themselves because of the numbers. No one seems to read their emails, engage with their posts or book sessions from their websites. So rather than let it take you out, I wanted to give you clarity and context around the numbers so you can see what's considered 'normal' and see for yourself that it's nothing about 'you' as a health professional, it's just the numbers in business.  If you'd like to come along to my free Private Practice Workshop training on September 30th 2024, click here.  Join my free community for allied health professionals in private practice here.  #privatepractice #mentalhealth #privatepracticemarketing #marketing #counselor #counsellors #newtherapists #psychologist #socialworker #playtherapist #occupationaltherapist #naturopath #dietician

AI That Works While You Are With Clients: What ChatGPT Workspace Agents Mean for Your Practice

There is a real difference between AI that helps you do work and AI that does the work itself. ChatGPT Workspace Agents, released in April 2026, crossed that line. This episode is about what that actually means for a solo private practice owner, who can use it right now, and what you need to get straight on the privacy front before connecting anything.

In this episode I talk about ChatGPT's new Workspace Agents feature, which lets you build automated workflows that run in the cloud without you initiating them each time, and what that means for therapists managing a private practice alongside a full clinical caseload. I also cover how this compares to Claude Cowork Scheduled Tasks, which does the same thing locally on your machine, and why that local versus cloud distinction matters for Australian therapists specifically.

WHAT WE COVER

I walk you through what a workspace agent actually is in plain English, no jargon, and explain how it compares to other AI automation tools you are probably already using — including Claude Cowork Scheduled Tasks, which does the same repeatable workflow automation but runs locally on your machine. That local versus cloud distinction matters more than most tech coverage explains, and I cover exactly why. I share specific examples of how a solo practice owner could use agents for content creation, business admin, and weekly practice maintenance without touching anything clinical. I also go through the privacy and compliance considerations that every Australian therapist needs to understand before connecting their Google Drive or Calendar to any AI agent — including a direct take on whether you actually need a ChatGPT Business plan if you are already on a paid Claude plan. I close with my honest take on where this is all heading and what the right questions are to be sitting with right now.
