A Masterclass For Physical Therapists
How to STOP “People-Pleasing” Difficult Patients™: Set Boundaries & Protect Your Peace in the Clinic
The Clinical Burnout That No One’s Talking About..
…comes from trying to help people who are just difficult to help.
Not because you lack clinical knowledge or skill.
You bring your A-game. You problem-solve. You stay up late to think through their case.
But certain patients still leave you feeling:
Resentful and drained after sessions
Worried you’re “not good enough” if they don’t get better
Trapped in a weird tug-of-war between being too nice or becoming too cynical
Sound familiar? I know this feeling way too well.
This course was built for physical therapists like you, smart and compassionate clinicians who want to serve their patients without losing themselves or their peace of mind along the way.
Introducing:
How to STOP People Pleasing
Difficult Patients™: Set Boundaries &
Protect Your Peace in the Clinic
A masterclass to help physical therapists learn how to set boundaries in the clinic to not let “that patient” hijack their confidence & peace for the day.
What You’ll Learn Inside This Course:
Module 1: Introduction | Why This Work Matters
Get real about the emotional load of being a high-integrity Physical Therapist.
Why another con-ed weekend won’t fix your resentment toward difficult patients
What burnout actually looks like in elite clinicians
The therapy-driven mindset shift that started it all
You’ll leave this module feeling ready for a complete perspective shift.
Module 2: Professional Boundary Setting Strategies That Protect Your Peace in the Clinic
Sick of absorbing every patient’s expectations? In this module you’ll learn:
How to filter out patients who don’t align with your practice model without guilt
The “Beautiful Questions” that clarify fit before things go off the rails
How to clearly communicate your values and non-negotiables
Real patient onboarding visuals & narratives Ramez uses with new patients
Walk away with the scripts, visuals, and language to protect your energy without sacrificing care.
Module 3: The CBT Model | Master Your Mental Game Before It Masters You
If one bad eval ruins your confidence, this will change everything. Learn the same CBT journaling framework Ramez used in therapy to:
Unpack negative thoughts after difficult sessions
Shift out of “fix-them” mode and back into clarity
Reframe limiting beliefs like “If I let a patient down, I’ve failed”
This isn’t mindset fluff, it’s the emotional regulation tool elite clinicians should be taught but never are.
Module 4: The Drama Triangle | Get Off the Emotional Rollercoaster
You’re not crazy. The patient who bounces between “victim” and “blame game” is real.
In this section you’ll learn how to:
Spot the Drama Triangle before it sucks you in
Stop flip-flopping between the rescuer and the cynic
How to shift into the roll of a coach, the only place true healing and sanity live
You’ll finally understand why some cases wear you down… and what to do instead.
Module 5: Final Thoughts & Action Plan
This isn’t just emotional fluff. It’s a practical transformation.
You’ll leave this course with:
A 3-part plan to protect your clinical confidence & energy every week
Real scripts to set expectations with new patients
Permission to let go of patients who aren’t ready to be helped — without guilt
When you stop people pleasing, you stop second-guessing. And that’s when your best work actually shows up.
✅ This course is for you if:
You care deeply about your patients, but feel drained by a few of them and you don’t know how to “not let them get to you”
You avoid confrontation (even with patients who need it)
You’ve started feeling bitter, even though you still love this work
You want to learn tried and true narratives, frameworks, and visuals to finally draw a professional boundary that has worked for other ambitious PTs like you.
❌ This course is NOT you if:
You think the patient is “always right” and always needs to be catered to.
You’re unwilling to self-reflect & do the “inner work”
