Between Sessions with Berries
You’re the one everyone turns to for support. But who supports you?
From endless documentation and emotional exhaustion to keeping up with clinical demands, mental health professionals are facing burnout like never before. You’ve tried better systems, stricter boundaries, even thought about leaving, but it still feels overwhelming.
That’s why Berries, your AI assistant built for clinicians, created In Between Sessions, a podcast made to help you do more of what matters: caring for your clients and caring for yourself.
Each week, we feature candid interviews with therapists, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and mental health innovators who share what’s working in the real world, not just what looks good on paper. You’ll hear practical strategies for documentation, conversations about burnout and balance, and ways AI can support your workflow without replacing your clinical voice.
Hosted by Kym Tolson, clinical consultant and longtime therapist, this show is brought to you by Berries to help clinicians like you thrive in today’s mental health landscape.

Breaking the Scarcity Mindset and Scaling Beyond One-to-One with Kimberly Parker
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most mental health professionals enter the field knowing the work will be heavy. What they don't always expect is being handed a narrative that says financial struggle comes with the territory. For too many clinicians, that story becomes the ceiling.
In this episode of Between Sessions with Berries, Kym sits down with Kimberly Parker, LPC-LCDC, CEO of Revive to Thrive Wellness Center, doctoral candidate, clinical supervisor, and speaker, to talk about what it actually looks like to reject that narrative and build something bigger. Kimberly shares how she moved from a packed caseload to a diversified practice, why she's passionate about cultural humility in the therapy room, and how she's learned to protect her energy while holding multiple professional roles.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- Why "just see more clients" is doing more harm than good for new clinicians.
- How surrounding yourself with the right people shifts your money mindset.
- What pushed Kimberly out of the one-to-one model, and what she built instead.
- The difference between cultural humility and cultural competency.
- How she monetized her love of teaching into a continuing education business.
- The self-care structure she created after burnout and an autoimmune diagnosis.
- What mental health professionals should know about AI and responsible use.
