Whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills, our tailored training options meet you where you are—offering flexible, practical, and empowering learning experiences designed to fit your unique schedule, learning style, and budget.
Why Invest in Private Practice Training?
Running a thriving private practice requires more than clinical expertise. It means mastering the business side, understanding client engagement, and nurturing your professional growth—all while honoring your values and self-care.
But beyond the challenges, private practice offers incredible freedom—the ability to create your own schedule, choose your ideal clients, and shape a work life that truly fits you. It’s about rediscovering the joy and fun in your work, connecting deeply with clients, and celebrating your unique style as a therapist.
Our trainings offer you actionable tools, expert guidance, and a supportive community to help you:
Build a sustainable, fulfilling practice
Manage challenges with confidence
Deepen your clinical and business skills
Balance work with your life demands
Feel empowered in your professional journey
Embrace the freedom and creativity that come with owning your own practice

Join Us for a Live Training

Does this sound familiar?
When you think about starting a private practice, you may initially feel excited, but that excitement can quickly turn into paralysis, both mentally and physically, as you struggle with where to begin.
That’s why we have created this training. Private practice offers countless opportunities, but it can also feel isolating. We are here to support you on this journey, and we want you to know that you are not alone. Let’s work together to successfully launch your private practice, allowing you to earn money while pursuing your passion.
Why choose us?
Dr. Michelle has nearly 25 years in the field of counseling. She is a licensed counselor in Oregon and California, supervisor and professor.
Frankie is a BIPOC counselor in Washington and Oregon. She opened a private practice right out of graduate school and has spent their time building a profitable business that allows them to prioritize being a parent and focus on flexibility within their work.
We genuinely care about you as an individual, not just you as a therapist.
