EP30 - Therapist Tax Planning: Running a Profitable Private Practice
Therapists spend their days helping clients navigate life's challenges, but behind the scenes, managing the tax and financial side of a private practice can feel overwhelming. From tracking insurance reimbursements to navigating employee versus contractor classifications, the financial setup can make or break your practice's profitability.
In this episode, Anastasia and Myiesha break down the unique tax considerations for therapists and counselors running private practices. You'll learn about common bookkeeping mistakes that create filing nightmares, how to properly categorize your therapeutic methods and expenses, when hiring someone becomes an employee relationship instead of contractor status, and the systems you need in place before your practice scales.
Whether you're a solo practitioner doing virtual sessions or building a multi-therapist practice with office space, this episode gives you the financial foundation to keep your practice profitable and stress-free.
