If you want to start a private practice but feel held back by fear or uncertainty, this episode is for you!

Joining me today is Gaella Doutis, a speech-language pathologist and the founder of Speech Box in Las Vegas. After starting through the Start Your Private Practice Program, Gaella found the confidence and support she needed to take the leap and start her practice.

In this episode, Gaella shares her journey of overcoming self-doubt and imposter syndrome to build a thriving private practice and also expand into special education tutoring.

Gaella Doutis is a licensed speech-language pathologist in Nevada and a member of the American Speech Language Hearing Association (ASHA). She has been providing speech therapy for individuals with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD/ADD, learning and intellectual disability, cognitive communication disorders, speech sound disorders and developmental delay for 11 years.

Gaella obtained her master's degree in special education at Concordia University in Portland, Oregon and master’s in speech language pathology at Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. When she’s not working, she spends her time with her 2 boys, TJ and Hunter, and her husband, Tyler. She enjoys CrossFit, Olympic weightlifting, playing golf on the weekends, and participating in marathons.

In Today's Episode, We Discuss:

Gaella’s educational background and her introduction to SLP
Recognizing others’ confidence in you as a testament to your skills
Learning to put blinders on when imposter syndrome creeps in
Setting boundaries to find balance as a business owner
How she finds support and connection with fellow Start students in Las Vegas
Gaella’s growth plans for her practice and tutoring program

I loved listening to Gaella’s experiences about building a business that supports her interests and serves her clients! I hope she inspires you to push past your doubts and take the next step toward the career you’ve always dreamed of.
