Maximizing Income in Private Therapy Practice

In this episode of Therapy for Your Money, host Julie Herres shares valuable tips on how therapists in private practice can predict their income and maximize their take-home pay. Julie explores three controllable factors in a practice: the number of sessions, the rate per session, and the percentage of income retained.

By understanding personal capacity, examining historical data, and accounting for yearly variability, Julie provides concrete steps for financial planning. Additionally, she offers insights into the expected profit margins for various practice sizes and the potential impact of strategic decisions on overall profitability. Julie concludes by introducing a KPI tracker to help therapists manage their finances effectively.
