Private Practice Consultation

Have you started a private practice or want to leave an agency job? Do you need support with your marketing or have questions about how to get started?

I can help!

The first months and years of private practice are overwhelming. Working for yourself is incredible, I’ll be honest. But most therapists don’t have a marketing or business background–we don’t learn these things in grad school.

There’s a way to feel more confident–with a private practice mentor on your team.

What is private practice consultation?

Private practice consultations offer guidance as you define and refine your helping role. I function as a mentor and resource—I’m here to walk alongside you and provide support as you take the leap into running your practice. We can meet one time, or I can offer ongoing support via email or text—or both. It’s up to you!

could you benefit from Private Practice Consultation?

Anyone could benefit from having a practice mentor. You may have an occasional question, or maybe you need a lot of coaching to get your practice going.

I understand the mental health market of Lawrence and have maintained a consistently full (and fulfilling!) practice for nearly a decade. I can help you find footing on your path toward building a practice that you feel good about.

I’m not the type of mentor who recommends getting as many clients as possible and burning out. I offer an honest assessment of your work-life balance. As helpers we must consider our limits and all the hats we already wear.

I believe in you.

Potential consultation topics may include:

  • How to speak to and attract your “ideal client” (I’m also a copywriter and understand the psychology of reaching your ideal client)
  • Editing or tweaking your Psychology Today listing or website content
  • Establishing boundaries with clients and developing practice policies
  • Establishing an ideal schedule (neurodiversity-friendly and work-life balance strategies)
  • Deciding how to track finances and seek tax resources
  • How to prepare for a return from leaves of absence (e.g., pregnancy, parenting changes, etc.)

How much does private practice consultation cost?

My rates vary depending on how you utilize my services. If you want to schedule a 30-90 minute “pick my brain” session, my hourly rate is $100.

Alternatively, maybe you want me on retainer for questions that pop up. We can consult via text, email, or phone call. This concierge-style arrangement starts at $15/month (scheduled meetings are additional).

Need help with your private practice?

I’m eager to help and share my experience and knowledge with you. Each practice has different needs, just as each therapist will have unique goals for their practice.

(Disclaimer: PP consults differ from supervision–we are not consulting cases or counting hours toward a clinical license. I’m also not a billing specialist, but I have insight into EHR and insurance)

Contact me if you’d like to discuss if I can assist you. Let’s chat over coffee, lunch, on a walk, or by phone/video!
