What I stopped doing: triaging 100 emails before my first session and writing the same answer for the ninth time.

I'm David Glick. I've spent twenty-three years building a clinic. I spent the last few of them answering email.

Chapter 01 — The practice
I opened Triad Psych in 2003, in one office in Marietta, Georgia.
The idea was simple and stubborn. Special education, behavior analysis, psychotherapy — braided into one approach instead of three separate appointments. Three strands. That's the triad.
Twenty-three years later there are four locations across Metro Atlanta, ten clinicians, and seventy-plus years of combined experience in the room. None of that was the hard part.

Chapter 02 — The drag
I became a
I became a
therapist. Then I
became a marketing
department.
I didn't study for two decades so I could do this at 11pm:
- 11:04 pmEmails arriving faster than I can answer them
- 11:26 pmSocial posts I keep meaning to write
- 11:41 pmMarketing that only happens when someone cancels
- 12:15 amFollow-ups that quietly become someone's crisis
Every hour there was an hour I wasn't giving a client. Time-draining is the polite word for it.
Chapter 03 — One month ago
So I hired
So I hired
a team that doesn't
need me.
Setting it up took an afternoon. No interviews. No onboarding deck. I told them about the clinic once, and they've been running with it since.

"You show up online every day now. You didn't have to film a thing."
What I stopped doing: letting the page go quiet for three weeks and calling it a content strategy.
Marketing & SEO
Penny
"Families searching for help in Atlanta should find you first. That's my job."
What I stopped doing: paying for marketing I couldn't measure and didn't have time to steer.

software before.
This isn't that.
Here's the version of this team I'd have had to hire in Atlanta to get the same work done:
Virtual assistant, inbox & scheduling~$2,000/mo
Social media manager$3–7,000/mo
Marketing & SEO agency~$5,000/mo

I'm running
a clinic again.
Kids who process the world differently. Families trying to keep pace with them. Officers who can't say out loud what they saw on shift. That's the work. That's what the hours are for.
A month in, I'm not managing tools. I've got a team. So — I highly recommend it.
