In this special client-takeover episode of The Doctor Coach School™ Podcast, we hear from Dr. Ksera Dyette, a licensed clinical psychologist, private practice business coach, and podcaster whose work centers on liberation, equity, and values-aligned practice for Black social workers and psychologists.

Dr. Ksera shares her deeply personal journey from graduate training in predominantly white institutions, through exploitation and harm in group practice settings, to building a private practice rooted in authenticity, sustainability, and liberation. Along the way, she unpacks how scarcity, white normativity, and oppression quietly shape how clinicians are trained to work, think about clients, and run businesses—often at the expense of their bodies, identities, and values.

This episode goes beyond the “nuts and bolts” of private practice. It explores what it truly means to unlearn harmful systems, reclaim your voice, and build a business that supports both your clients and your own thriving.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

  • How oppressive training environments shape clinicians long after graduation
  • The hidden cost of scarcity-driven private practice models
  • Why overworking and self-silencing are not personal failures, but learned survival strategies
  • How group practices can exploit clinicians while undervaluing their ideas and labor
  • What it means to build a liberation-centered, values-aligned private practice
  • How racism, oppression, and internalized messages show up in business decisions
  • Why centering identity, voice, and sustainability is essential for long-term practice
  • How redefining success in private practice can restore health, integrity, and joy

Dr. Ksera introduces her year-long Boundless Liberation Private Practice Coaching Program, designed specifically for Black social workers and psychologists.

This work includes:

  • Private practice foundations and strategy
  • Values-aligned policies, pricing, and accessibility
  • One-to-one coaching and assessment
  • Unlearning scarcity and oppressive internal narratives
  • Strengthening your internal supervisor
  • Rebuilding identity and confidence as a clinician and business owner
  • Creating a practice that supports both liberation and financial sustainability

This program is for clinicians who are ready to move beyond survival and build practices that truly reflect who they are and who they serve.

This conversation is especially for you if:

  • You feel undervalued or exploited in a group practice
  • You’ve tried to start a private practice but feel overwhelmed or stuck
  • You have a practice that isn’t aligned with your values or identities
  • You want to center liberation, equity, and authenticity in your work
  • You’re ready to stop shrinking yourself to fit oppressive systems
