How to Thrive in Counseling Private Practice: The Insider’s Guide to Starting and Growing a Counseling Therapy Business
Handbook for Counselors in Private Practice by Dr. Anthony Centore
Many counselors make a fatal error: they assume that running a practice is mostly about doing counseling. It’s not. To many in the industry, that statement is blasphemy. Its care-focused culture tells us that to turn our attention to “business” is to undermine client care. In that vein, many counselors are taught that if they provide really good clinical care, the business will grow around them as their just reward. It won’t. Dr. Centore has seen good clinicians fail because of poor practice management. Scheduling errors, billing errors, cash-flow problems, unreturned voicemails, unkempt offices, unfulfilled records requests, poor customer service, unsuccessful advertising spends—all of these contribute to a practice’s demise. While good counseling alone won’t make a practice successful, a well-run practice is best positioned to offer great clinical care, and a consistent quality experience that exceeds client expectations. You’re trained to be an excellent clinician, but business has never been your “thing.” Or, perhaps you’ve run businesses before, but not one in the increasingly competitive mental health field. In either case, this book is for you. The text include 29 high-impact lessons (chapters), that include every key area necessary to build and grow a successful counseling business. This book has ZERO filler. Every one of it’s 45,000 words is selected to deliver maximum impact. Most importantly, this book is written by someone who has done it. Someone whose clinics bring in millions of dollars every year in revenue. Too often “how to build a practice” books and courses are by persons who have barely built a practice of their own, or by persons who managed to build a caseload once, but can’t repeat their success. Dr. Centore has profitable offices in multiple states.
