Summary:

On this episode of Mindset Monday we will be taking about how Private Practice is a vehicle to get you where you would like to go in life.

I've been thinking a lot about this lately. As you know in my beginner course where I teach people how to start private practices. In talking to all the thousands of people, most people are coming to private practice from another setting. They’re either coming from schools, hospitals or early intervention generally because the setting has affected them in a negative way.

That is where Private Practice comes in. You are in control of your caseload, what types of clients you see and how you want your practice to be run. In this episode you will learn how to take this from an idea to a real business. 

What I discuss:

• How to set up your Private Practice for success from the very beginning
• If you're already an establish Private Practice how to pivot
• How to change your business and mindset if things aren't going exactly how you imagined.
