So you’re thinking about private practice? 👀

Let’s pump the brakes for a sec. It’s not just “more money + freedom” (though, yes, those are perks). It’s also a business.

Here’s what you really need to think about:

💸 Money — Can you handle a slow start? Do you know your fixed expenses (rent, EMR, insurance, website) and how to plan for taxes?
🗂️ Business Skills — You’re not just the therapist anymore. You’re also the CEO, marketer, bookkeeper, and admin. (Congrats? 🫠)
📣 Clients — How will people find you? What’s your plan for marketing and referrals? Do you know how to screen for fit?
🎯 Niche + Brand — Who do you love working with, and how will you stand out in a sea of “anxiety + trauma” therapists?
Private practice can be incredible—but it’s not a leap you want to take blind. 🪂
This is the stuff they definitely didn’t teach you in grad school.

It’s a good thing you have US!
There is still time to register for our fall coaching course. This is the LAST course were offering in 2025, don’t miss out!

Starting your own practice feels like drinking from a firehose of acronyms and legal jargon.

But you don’t need to know everything right away.

But if you tackle these 4 basics—business structure, NPI number, a separate bank account, and liability insurance—you’ll have a safe, solid foundation to grow from.

✨ Which one are you tackling first?

🚨 Therapists, if you’re just “winging it” in private practice… read this before you burn out.

If we could hop in a time machine and re-do our early private practice days, here’s what we’d fix:

1️⃣ Make a business plan — Your “plan” can’t just be “hope clients find me.” Map out your numbers, goals, and systems before you jump.

2️⃣ Make the transition sooner — Stop waiting for the perfect time. Spoiler: it doesn’t exist.

3️⃣ Niche earlier — Pick your people and go all in. Serving everyone just waters down your impact (and your marketing).

4️⃣ Network like your business depends on it — Because it does. The more connections you have, the less you rely on hope + Instagram’s algorithm.
Your future self will thank you (and maybe even have Fridays off).

Here’s what to cover:

1️⃣ Their Goals for Therapy
→ “What made you reach out now?”
→ “What do you hope will feel different in a few months?”

2️⃣ Presenting Concerns
→ Get a quick overview of symptoms, challenges, and history (enough to screen for scope, not do a full intake).

3️⃣ Your Approach
→ Briefly explain how you work + what clients can expect in sessions.

4️⃣ Scope & Fit
→ Are their needs in your area of expertise?
→ Do they want something you don’t offer? (Example: “I’m looking for EMDR” and you don’t do EMDR.)

5️⃣ Logistics Check
→ Scheduling, fees/insurance, cancellation policy.
→ Make sure they can realistically commit.

💡 Pro Tip: End the call with a clear next step—either booking the first session or referring them to a better fit.

Well, now you’re all out of excuses !If you thought these things were holding you back, wrong ! Get to work 😉
