PRIVATE PRACTICE CONSULTATION (SOLO & GROUP)
Build a practice that feels aligned, ethical, and sustainable, without burnout or guesswork.
FEATURED IN
PRIVATE PRACTICE ISNT’ JUST CLINICAL WORK
You became a therapist to do meaningful work.
But running a private practice often comes with pressure, uncertainty, and decisions no one trained you for.
Whether you’re in solo practice or growing into a group practice, private practice isn’t just about business strategy—it’s about identity, confidence, leadership, and structure.
Growth is easier when you have the right support.
YOU WEREN’T TRAINED TO BUILD A BUSINESS ALONE
Whether you’re just starting private practice or you’ve already launched and still feel overwhelmed or unsure what to do next, you’re not alone.
Many therapists enter private practice after listening to podcasts, taking advice from colleagues, or trying to piece together guidance from different places. Even after doing “all the things,” it can still feel unclear how to actually build momentum.
You might be wondering:
→ Where will my clients come from?
→ How do I build a steady caseload?
→ Am I focusing on the right things?
→ Why does this still feel confusing?
Most business advice is shared in fragments—without sequence, context, or consideration for your stage of practice.
As therapists, we’re trained not to practice in isolation. We consult, seek supervision, and collaborate because we know good care doesn’t happen in a vacuum.
So why would we expect ourselves to build a business—something we were never formally trained in—completely on our own?
Feeling unsure doesn’t mean you’re failing.
It usually means you need clearer structure, guidance, and support.
Practices grow more sustainably with support and structure.

“Wow! What an amazing model!!! It would be impossible not to gain more confidence in starting, launching, beginning, growing or sustaining a private practice or new business. I was able to get even more clear with my message, and found more confidence in owning this. There were many great tools and opportunities for working with doubts and fears and finding your gifts and strengths. I couldn’t recommend more. Thank you for unlocking my confidence, Francisca!”

FROM CLINICIAN TO CONFIDENT PRACTICE OWNER
SOLO PRACTICE CONSULTING
Starting or running a solo private practice often means you’re balancing clinical work with business decisions you were never formally trained for. From marketing and caseload building to systems and structure, it can feel overwhelming to know what actually matters most.
I support solo practice owners who want clarity, confidence, and a clear plan for building a sustainable private practice, without burnout or constant second-guessing.
This work is practical, supportive, and designed for the real challenges of solo practice ownership.
Launch or grow a solo therapy private practice with clarity and direction
Build a consistent and sustainable caseload ethically and intentionally
Clarify your private practice niche, messaging, and professional identity
Create simple practice systems and workflows that reduce overwhelm
Clarify whether a self-pay, insurance, or hybrid private practice model is right for you
Develop confidence as a private practice business owner when making decisions
Solo Practice Consulting Focus Areas
Move from overwhelm and confusion to a clear, doable practice plan
Know exactly what to focus on first, next, and later when starting or growing a private practice
Make confident business decisions without constant second-guessing

Strategic Outcomes for Solo Practice Owners
Solo practice consulting is tailored to your stage of practice and current goals. Sessions focus on:
Assessing where you are in your private practice journey
Identifying gaps in professional identity, mindset, systems, marketing, or practice structure
Clarifying next steps for caseload growth and sustainability
Providing grounded guidance that builds confidence over time
How Solo Practice Consulting Works
If you’re starting or growing a solo private practice and want clarity around direction, caseload building, and next steps:
Running or growing a group practice brings a different set of challenges than solo practice. As your practice expands, you’re no longer only a clinician—you’re also a leader, decision-maker, and systems builder.
I support group practice owners and emerging clinical leaders who want to scale thoughtfully, build strong systems, and lead with confidence—without losing their values or burning out.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Private practice consulting is for therapists at any stage of building a practice, from those contemplating private practice, to therapists in the early or beginning launch phase, through practice owners who are stabilizing, growing, or scaling a solo or group practice.
This support is especially helpful if you want clearer strategy, stronger systems, and guidance that evolves as your practice grows.
-
Yes. Many therapists seek consulting after launching when they realize they’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about caseload growth, systems, or next steps. Consulting helps you step back, assess what’s working, identify gaps, and create a clear, doable plan-whether you’re refining systems, building your caseload, or preparing to scale.
-
Consulting can support a wide range of private and group practice needs, including:
Practice direction and decision-making
Caseload development and sustainability
Marketing and client experience
Systems, workflows, and practice structure
Professional identity and mindset as a practice owner
Sessions are practical, collaborative, and tailored to your current stage of practice.
-
While outcomes vary, many therapists experience:
Greater clarity about what to focus on now
Increased confidence in business decisions
Reduced overwhelm through clearer systems and priorities
Steady, intentional progress toward a sustainable practice
The goal isn’t perfection, it’s grounded forward movement.
-
A free discovery call is the best place to start. We’ll talk through where you are in your practice, what you’re navigating, and how you prefer to receive support.
Some therapists prefer 1:1 consulting for personalized guidance, real-time feedback, and support with complex or evolving decisions. Others prefer a self-paced, structured approach, where they can move through material on their own timeline and revisit it as needed.
For therapists in the early or beginning launch phase, the Private Practice Jumpstart Program is often a supportive way to gain clarity, build foundational skills, and create momentum. Consulting may be a better fit when you want more individualized strategy or are navigating growth and group practice decisions.
The goal is to choose the option that best supports your learning style, needs, and current stage of practice.
-
Private practice consulting is structured around a 6-month contract, because gaining clarity, building competency, and developing confidence as a practice owner takes time. This timeframe allows space to slow down, make thoughtful decisions, implement changes, and build momentum without rushing the process.
That said, many therapists choose to work with me for about a year, especially as their practice evolves or new challenges arise. Others return for additional support as needed during transitions, growth phases, or periods of re-evaluation.
The goal isn’t to stay in consulting indefinitely, it’s to build the clarity, skills, and confidence you need to move forward well, and to have support available when it’s most useful.
-
Investment varies depending on the type of support you’re seeking, such as 1:1 consulting or program-based options like the Private Practice Jumpstart Program.
A discovery call allows us to discuss your goals and share current investment options. For many therapists, consulting is viewed as a business expense, similar to training or supervision, because it supports sustainable growth and clearer decision-making.
-
No. Private practice consulting is not a clinical service and is not covered by insurance. This work is considered business consulting and professional development, rather than therapy.
Many therapists choose to treat consulting as a business expense, similar to training, supervision, or professional education, because it supports practice development, clearer decision-making, and long-term sustainability.
If you have questions about payment options or want help determining the best next step, we can talk through that during a free discovery call.
-
If now isn’t the right time to invest in consulting, you’re still welcome here.
You can start with the FREE Private Practice Jumpstart Checklist, which helps clarify priorities and reduce overwhelm. You can also join my Private Practice Pulse Newsletter for ongoing insights and resources for therapists building private and group practices.
Support doesn’t have to start with a big investment.
-
The free discovery call is a low-pressure conversation to understand where you are in your private practice journey, what challenges you’re facing, and what kind of support would be most helpful. There’s no obligation—just clarity about next steps and whether working together is a good fit.
