Navigating Challenging Cases in Therapy?
Clinical consultation is here to provide the guidance and support you need. I specialize in assisting licensed therapists as they tackle complex cases and ethical dilemmas. Together, we’ll explore individualized feedback, practical tools, documentation templates, and step-by-step strategies tailored to your unique situation. My goal is to help you blend practical solutions with the passion that brought you to this field and to reignite your enthusiasm for your work if needed. While we may touch on how your personal experiences influence your practice, it’s important to note that consultation is distinct from counseling or supervision and operates separately from my therapy practice.

Starting Your Own Therapy Practice?
One crucial lesson that schools often overlook is how to launch a successful practice. Many therapists enter the field driven by compassion rather than a business mindset, which can lead to challenges in establishing their practice. When I opened mine, I leaned heavily on business consultants, and the investment was truly invaluable.

Now, I offer consultation services to therapists considering starting a practice or looking to enhance their existing one. I meet you where you are in your journey, understanding that building a thriving private practice takes time and effort. Our work will focus on strategic planning, marketing, and effective operational management. We’ll identify short- and long-term goals, uncover your strengths and unique niches, and develop strategies for attracting your ideal clients—all essential components of successful practice management. Supporting clinicians through this process is incredibly rewarding for me.

The demand for counseling is higher than ever, creating fantastic opportunities for entrepreneurs and those dreaming of their own practice. If you’re feeling burned out in your agency job, now is the perfect time to leap! You can succeed during this pivotal moment with a solid business plan and intentional actions.
