I’ve tried a few different email subscription programs before and Flodesk is fantastic. Extremely user-friendly with drag and drop features. Beautiful email templates from big names in the marketing game. Easy to set-up workflows and opt-in forms.
The easiest Electronic Health Record system I’ve ever used both as a client and on the therapist end as well. Setting up the credit card processor and online paperwork is a breeze. Bonus, if you use the link here, we both get $150. It’s win-win.
This is my happy place. I use Trello for all my big ideas, projects and checklists. You can share boards with other team members. Everything is organized in one wonderful place.
The top therapist directory, and for good reason. Easy to use account features like adding a video intro to your profile, show off your office space, and even hold sessions through the platform. Email me for a 6 months free listing at rachel@rachelbutlercounseling.com
Whether you use the free or pro version, this is GOLD! Create social media visuals, presentations and business cards just to name a few. My favorite part of the pro feature is the ability to re-size your creations with a few clicks.
MILE IQ is a great app to help keep track of your mileage, especially when you work from home and run work errands. You can have a free trial for up to 40 rides or set up a subscription monthly or annually. Trust me, the time it takes to hand calculate each trip I made last year is exhausting. I’d much rather have an app keep track of it all for me.
Dagne Dover is the brand I trust to protect my electronics and belongings. Whether I’m going for a walk and talk session outdoors or taking a flight, I know my things are protected. I have both the backpack and the diaper bag. There are so many compartments, cushioned sections for electronics and laptops, and not to mention it’s so chic. Super easy to clean too.

I like to work smarter, not harder. This applies to my beauty routine as well. For locals near Alpharetta, Milton, Johns Creek, or Roswell area, I love this place.
