Private Practice & Business Consulting
Starting or growing a private practice is exciting—but it can also feel intensely overwhelming. From navigating the business side of therapy to figuring out how to attract the right clients, there are a lot of moving parts that grad school didn’t prepare you for.
That’s where I come in: where it helps to have someone who really gets what its like to try to figure all of this out on your own. You know you want to do things your way, but making all of these decisions on your own can leave your head spinning.
Whether you’re still dreaming of starting your solo practice, your’re stepping into creating a thriving group practice, or you’re looking for ways to streamline your systems and reduce burnout, I can help you design a business that truly works for you.
My private practice building & consulting services are designed for therapists at all different stages of this journey, including:
Starting A New Practice
Therapists launching a solo practice who want guidance on the logistics—like choosing a business structure, making initial decisions and setting up systems, marketing, and creating a sustainable fee structure.
Realigning Your Current Practice
Clinicians already in private practice who feel stuck or want support in refining their brand, filling their caseload, or improving their workflow because something just isn’t working quite right.
Expanding to A Group Practice
Practice owners building a group practice who need help with leadership, hiring, onboarding, and creating a positive team culture. Ethically and sustainably.
And any practice owner who wants to avoid burnout and create a practice that supports their life outside the therapy room.
Our sessions are tailored to you, your practice, and your specific goals, but common topics include:
Business setup and organization
Marketing strategies that feel authentic (not salesy or slimy)
Branding and creating a niche
Building a referral network
Policies, paperwork, and compliance basics
Insurance vs private pay decisions
Fee setting and financial planning
Hiring, interviewing, onboarding, and managing a team
Leadership your way - ethically and sustainably
Workflows, systems, and technology that make your life easier
Balancing being a clinician with being a business owner
Business ownership and operation as a neurodivergent clinician
When you work with me, you’ll get actionable steps, honest feedback, and practical advice from someone who has been there - who has built and runs a thriving group private practice.
For real - nobody taught us this stuff in grad school.
There’s no one “right” way to run a private practice, but there is a right way for you. My practice is private pay and always has been for a lot of intentional reasons, but that’s not the only way. Your practice should speak to your needs, values, and style.
My consulting style is straightforward, supportive, and realistic. I won’t give you cookie-cutter advice - but I WILL help you design a business that aligns with your values, your clinical strengths, and your lifestyle.
As a group practice owner myself, I know both the challenges and the rewards of this work. I’ve been through the trial and error, and I’m uniquely equipped to help make your path smoother, less stressful, and more sustainable.

That’s totally fine. Breathe. Our sessions are structured to support you and where you are at with building things. Because the way I do things is completely individualized, you can be at any stage of private practice building.

Honestly? Not really. It’s just not my specialty. My practice is out of network very intentionally. I have some knowledge of insurance as I did work in a practice for several years that accepted many plans, but I just don’t know the ins and outs of contracts very well. I can support other areas of your practice, including cultivating more private pay referrals, but actually helping with credentialing is just not my area.

As often as we agree makes sense. I don’t have minimums for my business consulting clients. I intentionally keep the number of people I take on very small because I want you to have the support that you need. I’m not the right fit for everyone, and not every business is the right fit for me to help - that’s why we have a consultation call first to make sure we both feel good about working together. Right now all of my consulting work is individual 1:1 a la carte sessions, but courses and packages are on their way!

It really varies a lot, based on where you are with your practice and what you want to focus on. That’s why I do things on an a la carte basis right now, but courses and packages are on the way. We’ll first hone in on what you most want and need to work on - launching? Making initial practice decisions? Hiring? Marketing? Website and SEO?
Basic sessions with me are $225/hour. I also offer 90 Minute sessions that are $350, as well as 3 Hour Intensives that are $750 if you really want to work through out a lot at once. Whatever session length you choose, we’ll agree on focus topics for the day and you’ll leave with action items.
