Five conversations I wish I’d had

A Private Practice Development Group

ABOUT

How do you want your life to look and feel as a therapist, and as a person who lives in the world? This brief group will help you build a work-life that feels aligned with what you want for and from your career, and your values as a person.

This will be a somatically informed space to talk about what makes the business end of a therapy practice daunting for many professionals in this field. For some it’s struggling to set fees, make a budget, or identify how many clients to see on a weekly basis, among many other questions. I'm not advising on taxes, electronic health records, or legal regulations for business. I am offering a place to organize questions and share resources for answers, to identify and address the logistical and philosophical hurdles that may seem larger than they need to be.

In this group we will:

  • Make room to envision and begin planning a financially and emotionally thriving and sustainable practice

  • Hold space for a conversation about the way practical demands of living in the world meet your value system

  • Get more clarity on your definition of success and how to build your business towards that

  • Look at the hurdles to getting there, get clarity on them, and start to plan a way through

  • Provide a non-judgmental space to wrap your head around the financial aspects of this endeavor, including providing a template for budgeting for your private practice, and walking through how to use it

  • Explore how the first 3 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year in private practice can look and feel
