If you want to excel at social media in your counseling practice, you have to adopt best practices.With that in mind, what is the best way to build a presence on social media without hurting your reputation, breaking a rule, or compromising your clients along the way?This week on the show I'm sharing the powerful message sent by the Texas LMFT board when it published its best practices for social media.
