    Building A Values-Based Private Practice

    Eliza Hecht

    Friday · 12:00PM - 1:00PM ET

    These small group consultations are intended for both clinicians in early private practice and those who have been in practice for a while but are interested in pivoting to a structure that feels more values-aligned. When I started my own practice, I wanted to build a business that was firmly grounded in my values, felt authentic to me, AND was also financially sustainable. It was extremely difficult to find models of what I wanted to create. It was hard enough to even find resources explaining the basic logistics needed to open a private practice properly. The limited business advice I did receive felt overly cold, inauthentic, or questionably clinically sound. I decided to develop my own model for the practice I believed was possible. In speaking to people over the years, I have realized that many, many therapists are interested in creating a practice that aligns with their value system but they don't know how to go about it. I have loved figuring out the logistics of building a more ethical business - it's something I find really energizing and am extremely passionate about. I want to share the resources and insight I've developed over the years to make it easier for others' to build their own values-based practices. My hope is that access to these resources helps further my own values-based goals of increased access to treatment and increased quality of life for clinicians. Some issues that have been addressed in past consultations: - Balancing accessible care and financial stability - Developing a fair and standardized sliding scale to meet client need and satisfy legal concerns - Hiring employees; things to consider in the hiring process; figuring out a fair compensation structure - Creating an equitable environment for employees - The steps required to start a private practice in New York - Navigating NYS Paid Family Leave benefits - Tolerating the financial ebbs and flows of being in private practice - Feeling comfortable taking time off - Observing and setting limits with clients - Managing burnout - Increasing competency and confidence as a clinician The consultation group meets monthly for an hour at a time. The cost is $100/session for a series of 6 monthly sessions ($600 total). Scholarships are available based on financial need.

    Money Matters in Private Practice

    Kaerensa Craft, LCSW

    Thursday · 12:15PM - 1:15PM ET

    The complexities of money in private practice can lead to anxiety and avoidance for many therapists. Practical Issues such as valuating your services in the fee setting process, raising or lowering fees, determining a sliding scale, collecting payments, deciding on (and then enforcing!) cancellation policies, how to address client non-payment, and whether or not to join insurance panels are all practical issues that are rarely, if ever, covered in training programs. Moreover, client reactions to any of these issues can exacerbate therapist tension in these areas, and result in second-guessing, back-peddling and perhaps even defending oneself, rather than responding to the clinical issue being expressed. This group will provide a space to think and talk through these topics with peers, and to address both the practical and clinical concerns of money in private practice.

What happens in a private practice group?

Private practice groups focus on the business side of therapy that graduate programs rarely teach, such as setting fees, building referral sources, deciding on insurance, and managing a caseload sustainably.

Many also serve as the peer community solo clinicians lose when they leave agency work.

How to choose a group

  • Decide whether you want a business-focused group, a clinical group for private practitioners, or a mix.
  • Look for a leader who runs the kind of practice you want to build.
  • Ask whether the group is structured (curriculum) or open discussion.
