Private Practice Resource
The business side of private practice doesn't come with a manual. Most therapists figure it out as they go, and that uncertainty is more exhausting than it needs to be. We built these tools because we lived it ourselves. They're the tools we wish we'd had.
I just plugged in some numbers in the Income Forecaster and I wish you could see my blown-away face right now.
This tool is incredible!
I didn't realize how much I was guessing about my income until I used this. Seeing everything laid out clearly was honestly such a relief. I finally understood what I actually need to charge and how my schedule affects my take home.
I’ve been in private practice for a while and still learned things about my numbers using these tools. There were a few things I hadn't been paying attention to that I didn't even realize, and now I feel way more in control of the business side of my practice.
You can tell these were built by therapists. Nothing feels complicated or overly business-y. I opened it up and within a few minutes I already had real insights about my practice.
I used to track everything in a random mix of notes and spreadsheets that only made sense to me. These tools made everything so much more organized. I finally feel on top of things in my practice.
Most advice about going into private practice stops at "figure out your rate." This post covers what comes before that: the financial realities that catch even prepared therapists off guard, and how to go in with clear eyes.
Many therapists feel guilty about raising rates or charging cancellation fees. But without understanding the numbers behind your practice, it’s easy to become overworked and underpaid. Here’s what you actually need to know.
Wondering how to set your private practice therapy rate? Learn how to calculate a sustainable rate based on your caseload, expenses, and income goals instead of guessing or copying market averages.
