Synopsis

Start and Run Your Own Private Therapy Practice

Running your own private practice takes more than an advanced degree, memberships in professional psychology organizations, and the ability to be a good therapist. And while your continuing education and training may be useful, setting up and managing a successful practice is a matter of business and organizational know-how as much as professional proficiency.

If you're opening your own private practice or want to run your existing practice more efficiently, Private Practice Made Simple is your detailed guide. This book offers tips on everything from getting client referrals and creating a positive and comfortable office atmosphere to building a strong and thriving therapy practice that can serve both you and your clients. You'll learn how to attract clients as a new therapist and how to manage your practice as it grows.

This complete tool kit will help you:
• Find an office and set up a treatment room
• Establish headache-free routines for organizing client information and forms
• Decide on a fee and manage your finances
• Prevent burnout by maintaining a healthy work-life balance

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

To build a successful practice, it's essential to have the know-how to get clients, keep them, and build a strong and thriving business. Private Practice Made Simple provides therapists entering private practice with a complete toolkit for getting started, complete with guidance for renting an office, managing clients, handling confidential client information, maintaining a professional yet comfortable office atmosphere, getting referrals, creating a website, managing finances, and more. This book also features practical help for working with clients that often isn't covered in academic classes. Readers learn to bond with clients and set goals with their clients in therapy, and the provided forms and worksheets make it simpler for readers to get their private practices off the ground right away. Because the most successful psychologists never forget to maintain their own mental health, the guide helps readers identify and cope with burnout and establish headache-free routines for every session, day, week, and year.
