Thank you for all your videos! I just started my TH-cam channel, and you have been a huge part of me gaining the courage to just go for it. One year of grad school left, lots of info to share, and even more to learn. Thank you 🙏
I launched my private practice a few weeks ago thanks to you and your checklist! Once I decided I was going to do this, my first google search led me to you and I never looked back. THANK YOU!
That's amazing! Congratulations and best wishes to you!
I would love to know about your progress :) Can you give an update?
Awesome! I am starting up one this fall.
Any update on your business?
Congratulations 🎊
Wow, your videos are absolutely amazing. I have been scouting out videos to help an acquaintance start her online course. I was overwhelmed in the best of ways by the "free" checklist you offer. Instead of skipping through your videos, I look forward to viewing them to get the information I need. Thank you so much.
I plan to have my private practice up and running within 60 days. I already have clients as I’m working contract at another agency. My issue is the gap between my practice and the former practice. My clients want to stick with me. I’m excited about new beginnings but of course doing this all alone
Thank you! Im working on my private practice right now! Any support/advice is truly appreciated!
Thank you so so much for that checklist link!!! You amazing ❤
This is perfect!! Just what I need to start.
review of this video should everyone's STEP ONE!! thank you for the pep talk...i think i'm gonna watch this again and again
Thank you very much for the tips..Really gave me a better perspective. ...One of the main challenges which I faced was definitely the lack of a support system.. Now that I have identified it, I will be able to navigate through it better. . Thanks a ton
I needed to hear this about taking my time :)
I'm in school to get a BA to MA in Psychology and want to start my own practice when I finish, That way I can Start working.
Thank you so much for your super instructional video. I'm dusting off my wellness coaching program eagerly! 🌹
I love this, THANK YOU!!
So helpful, thank you🙏
Graduate my masters program in 1.5 years but my site is already up and working on my domain authority and SEO!
Wow wow wow amazing! You are way ahead of the game, and I think this is incredibly wise of you!
Hi Riley, I'm also in a masters program now and have 1.5 years left and trying to start my practice, is there a way to get in touch with you for some advice? Thank you and wishing you all the best wit your journey!
This is so helpful! I am actually just starting my journey to become a LCSW, and it just came to me that I can have a private practice after I graduate!
Hi good morning... Yay 🎉 I am so, so, so happy for you and you starting your journey to be a LCSW. Yay for impacting the lives of others. Best wishes on and towards a successful future.
This was extremely helpful! The checklist is so thorough!!! I love your tone as well. I am a part of a very small group practice/nonprofit in Louisiana (many barriers/struggles-the past 3 years major hurricanes and severe weather in addition to covid, that caused SO much)and I want to work toward establishing/maintaining my autonomy, even while being contracted with the group practice. I am struggling with some doubt/confidence and my support is very limited (trying to work on it but it seems that I get more support out of my particular area) Any tips?
HI Oshe! I am in SWLA and am beginning my solo private practice journey. I would love to talk about private practice/contracting work etc. if you're interested.
All I can say is THANK YOU !
Thank you so much for these tips! They’re very helpful. Thank you for your fun, caring, encouraging and generous energy. I’m sure I speak for a lot of therapists when I say that we appreciate your expertise on how to start up a private practice. One question, where could I find consent forms to create my own without going through an expensive attorney? I’d appreciate your guidance on this. I can’t wait to start my part-time telehealth private practice this year! Wishing you abundance of blessings and prosperity with much success in your private practice! 🙏🏼😊💗🥳🥂✨

Private Practice Skills thank you very much! 🙏🏼💗
Awesome, could you talk about NO surprises act? Everybody is freaking put right now about what it is, how to implement it in the paper work, etc. Thank you!
I just saw this for the first time the other night. What is this exactly. I’m so confused.
Filming a video for it today! I'll try to launch it earlier in the week than I usually do. No need to freak out though, no one will come after you and there is an expectation that we will take some time to actually roll it out and implement it in our practices. :)
I'll release a video on this later this week! :)
Thank You 😊
Hello! I’ve been in private practice for awhile and I have 2 therapists that work for me. I got lucky with them as they could both start and grow slowly as I got them referrals instead of me having a full caseload already for them. My question is, what is the best way to bring on a new therapist when you don’t have a full caseload for them? I don’t put people on waiting lists simply because I believe that when a client calls for counseling, they need counseling fairly soon. I always offer to hold onto their name or give them other names and numbers of practices in the town. So I get into this dilemma where I can’t hire a new therapist because I don’t have a full caseload and then I can’t build a full caseload when I don’t have a therapist to take it on. What’s the best way to grow? I’ve not had anyone explain it to me besides the method of therapists taking on way too many clients and then transitioning them to a new therapist once one is found and hired. To me, that is poor practice as that client has already built a therapeutic relationship with that initial therapist and handing them off to someone else just seems wrong. I’d love some advice on this!! Thanks!
I just saw this video and downloaded your checklist. I started my private practice a few months ago and I am feeling overwhelmed with marketing/promoting. I have a website and I am working boosting SEO. I don't know if I need business cards and/or flyers. I just don't know where to invest my energy at this point. I appreciate any and all feedback or questions.
I have a successful private practice but wanted to know if you had any information on pay scales, particularly percentage vs hourly wage. PIP and coaching models, etc.
Do you have any videos /guidance on therapist owning offices or buildings versus leasing them?
Thank u. U r a gem
Thank you for acknowledging the "take your time" and "lean on your support" tips. I was starting my PP before my 9/21 wedding and now I'm in my second trimester of pregnancy and wonder and I'm feeling anxious and self-doubt that it's too late to launch since I'll be obviously taking time off after having my baby. Any tips or insight into if it's too late?
I definitely needed to hear take your time…I’ve noticed that I tend to rush into things…
You don't know how helpful you are but let me tell you I am Soo thankful for your channel!
Thanks Marie for your video!
Saw ur course, 'How to DIY a Therapist Website that Fills your Practice (with zero ads!)'
Is this course applicable for those without a website? Like literally ground zero. Will you be teaching us how to set up website via square space step-by-step?
you're amazing
How viable is it to start a private practice right after getting your masters but before you are licensed? I would love to do it, but I am worried it would be hard
I just love your channel ❤😊 Sometimes I get annoyed with your perspective - you know , the one of an upper middle class white American 😂- but you’ve been doing a great job inspiring other practitioners😊
Do you have any advice for how to handle billing? Hiring medical billers?
I love your channel! Which platform would you recommend the most for lead generation in mental health? I spent almost 2 years on Linkedin investing time and energy and money on implementing given marketing advice and it did not pay off at all. Thinking about IG now
This is so validating. I’m in the process of opening my part time PP within the next few weeks. Those roadblocks are a b**** haha!
Do you have videos on first consultation, intake forms, first session?
I do! :)

I also offer a PDF ebook with all the initial first points of contact streamlined if you're interested: privatepracticeskills.teachable.com/p/from-undecided-to-booked
And the Private Practice Startup has a whole paperwork package. Let me know if you'd like me to send links with some coupon codes for that. Good luck!
@@PrivatePracticeSkills thank you so much! I would appreciate it if you can send me codes. Super helpful! This channel has been a life saver :)

Have you started your PP and if so, how’s that going?
hi, great tips! (Also, can you please share where you got your top from? It's a very nice top.
I shop almost exclusively at the thrift store! I think I got it for like 2 bucks at Goodwill a few years ago. I don't think it even has a tag on it!
thank you
Hi,
Do you have a referral code to psychology today. I want to try it out and sign up. Please let me know?
Hello! Thank you for all your tips and advice. I enrolled to get the feee guide but I haven’t received it yet. Hope you can help me with this ! Thank you😊
Sorry I missed this comment! You can send me an email and I'm happy to send it to you as an email attachment: marie@privatepracticeskills.com
The woooooooooooooo got me thanks
Do you recommend any lawyers that specialize in small business/private practice therapy law?
Could you do a video on how to create a Gods Faith Estimate as required due to the No Surprises Act that starts January 1st?
Yes I'm scripting it this week! Keep an eye out for that soon :)
Can you launch a private practice when you graduate with a Master's degree in Psychology?
Ugh! I'm stuck at step 1--finding a buddy (few buddies). Feeling pretty down and frustrated about it to be honest. In your video, you seemed as if you were going to advise how to get buddies but got sidetracked by something. Your checklist is great and I have reviewed it. I'm just waiting to find a little moral support :(
I had a whole segment on it and I cut it because the video ran long! It can be hard to find buddies. I would see if there is a local facebook group of therapists and put a post there looking for other folks in a relatively similar phase as you. Or see if those folks know of other therapists who can be part of your supports. Best wishes to you!
Hey, Christie, did you find a buddy? I am looking for a buddy as well.
@@shaneew3825 No not yet. Where are you located?
@@PrivatePracticeSkills Will you still do the segment? That's the hardest part for me too.
@@carolinewoolgar6457 I touch on it a little more in this video: th-cam.com/video/BY3jhwnoaE0/w-d-xo.html But I may spend a whole video talking about it someday!
Any suggestions on must have client paperwork?

Can psychiatrists in private practice choose to focus treatment on one gender?
I keep putting my email in for the free checklist and I am not getting the email. I checked my spam folder too. Can you assist me please?
Oops I only just saw this! Send me an email and I'm happy to send it in an email attachment: marie@privatepracticeskills.com
I call my twin-flame/soul-mate/true-love to me, NOW!
Private practice is not for the lazy that one clients to fall into their lab with a little effort to attract clients. I see people come to me all the time to say I want to be full-time, but they do nothing to attract clients to them. private practice is not for the lazy.
Where’s the 28 page guide. I don’t see a link.
It’s here! tinyurl.com/y9ek9en8 😊

When you say you are a therapist, is that synonymous to a clinical psychologist? How much higher education did you have to go through?
She’s a Doctor of Psychology. PhD
You need to do the work.
Her eyes are beautiful
I wanna open my private practice alrdy 😂😂 I hate working for someone else
I get that people want to make more money. Private practice is not for the lazy that one clients to fall into their lap with very little effort and work. There are people that come to me, and say that they want to be full time in private practice. Yeah, they are too lazy to create a profile for themselves to a attract clients to them.
Why am I here in the second quarter of 2023? 🤔
Did I miss something???? This was not helpful.
Sorry, but the 'sign language' thing just put me off in the first few minutes.
What are you even talking about? 😂
Thank you so much….not qualified yet 😂 but sometimes it’s good to know even from now ❤
