Are you tired of succumbing to fears of failure, the dread of running out of money, and dealing with licensing boards and the IRS? Join me, Dr. Kate Walker, as I demystify these fears with practice owner and consultant Sarah Rivera LPC-Supervisor and owner of Luz Counseling in San Antonio Texas. She'll be giving us a detailed roadmap to establish a thriving private practice.

Sarah Rivera's experiences span the highs and lows of starting and growing a business. She brings her insightful perspective to our chat, discussing the importance of a growth mindset, the pitfalls of the DIY approach in business, and the value of outsourcing. We also delve into the ethical dilemmas related to pro-rating session costs and the critical need for a written process for discounted rates.

Finally, we examine how to maximize your business growth and efficiency. We discuss the concept of scaling, the importance of streamlining business operations with a strong team and written systems, and how to separate taxes from client payments. We'll also explore the different avenues to grow your business, including leveraging digital platforms and adopting a hands-on approach to business growth. So buckle up and gear up to take your business to a whole new level!

Get your step by step guide to private practice. Because you are too important to lose to not knowing the rules, going broke, burning out, and giving up. #counselorsdontquit.
