If you're ready to go from feeling overwhelmed to owning your role as a confident, organized boss, then it's time to join an exclusive mastermind group, beginning in January 2025.

Imagine being able to communicate seamlessly with your team, having a process in place to hire and onboard with ease, and finally finding smart solutions for managing your office space needs. You'll learn how to balance seeing therapy clients while building systems, and, most importantly, step into the role of a true leader.

In this 6-month mastermind, you can expect live Zoom meetings every other week, access to the Wise Practice Membership Community, and access to Amy Dover between meetings as well as discounts on individual consultation calls while in the group.

Whether you’ve just made your first hire or are already managing a team, this group will give you the tools, guidance, and support to build a practice that thrives.

Head on over to wisepracticeconsulting.com/masterminds to schedule a call and sign up for the group. Wise Practice community members will receive $100 off per month for the mastermind group. This group is limited to only 8 participants and you must sign up by January 3rd, so don’t delay.
