173. Scaling a Private Practice While Traveling with Dr. Elizabeth Carr


Listen Later

Ever wonder how you could run a successful therapy business while living life on the road? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I chat with Dr. Elizabeth Carr, founder and CEO of Kentlands Psychotherapy, about scaling a private practice from anywhere, even an Airstream camper. Elizabeth shares how her practice grew from a solo venture into a thriving team of over 20 clinicians, all while she and her husband embraced a full-time travel lifestyle with their dog Riley and cat Atticus.

She breaks down the mindset shifts, leadership changes, and contingency planning that helped her transition from full-time clinician to full-time CEO. If you're dreaming of scaling your business, creating flexibility, and maybe even selling it one day, this episode is packed with insight.

In This Episode, We Explore…

  • How Dr. Carr transitioned from Navy psychologist to group practice owner
  • Why she restructured her role to support a travel lifestyle
  • The steps to moving from clinician to full-time leadership
  • Planning for continuity and legacy in your therapy business
  • Her strategy for staying clinically active without burnout
