Are you a Social Worker, Counselor, Psychologist, or a Marriage and Family Therapist who currently hates their job? The endless paperwork, the intakes, the unnecessary screenings, and the constant feeling that you're doing everything but what you actually joined the field to do... help people? Are you looking to step out of your comfort zone, and start your own private practice, but struggle with the uncertainty of not knowing how that'll look. You ask yourself questions like: how will I get clients, what software can I use to operate my practice, how much money can I expect to make, and what do I charge? These are just some of the questions that this video aims to help you answer. I'll walk you through my first year of starting my private practice, you'll get a front row seat of the ups and downs of being a business owner, and the action needed to transition from agency work to running your own private practice.
Not my typical type of video, but a video I wish I had when I first started my own private practice. Someone showing me the ups and downs of their first year of Private Practicing. Showing me how they were able to take their practice from a side hustle to a financially sustainable business. In this video I aim to be your guide through the first year of your own practice, and I will do this by taking you through the first year of my own private practice. I will be going through each month and showing the work I did in order to make the leap from agency employee to business owner. I answer questions like how much money I make, how I get clients, the operating system I use to manage my caseload & business, and how I found my office to operate out of. So, sit back, relax, and learn how you can take your private practice from side hustle to standalone business.
P.S. I also selfishly made this video to look back and watch sometime in the future when I’m a world renown therapist, so I could look back at my humble beginnings.
