Beyond the Money: How to Build a Private Practice That Gives You True Freedom [Ep 116]

Are you a therapist who's tired of feeling chained to your therapy chair, seeing client after client just to make ends meet? Freedom is what I keep hearing therapists want more than anything else - the ability to build a private practice around the life you crave.So many therapists can articulate their money goals, but what lights them up is describing the life they'd create with that money - yoga in the middle of the day, three-day workweeks, or time for forgotten hobbies. So in today's episode, I'm digging into what therapist freedom really looks like and how to build a private practice that doesn't just pay the bills but actually supports your dreams. I'll walk you through getting honest about what freedom means to you personally, setting fees that create true profitability, implementing time-saving systems, and giving yourself permission to want more.Ready to stop just surviving in your practice and start creating a business that gives you both income AND independence? Let's get into it.Topics covered in this episode:How to start building a private practice that is aligned with your ideal lifestyle.A tool that will help you set the perfect fee in your private practice.Identifying energy-draining tasks in your private practice that could be automated or systematized.Practical steps to reduce your caseload while maintaining or even increasing income.The importance of finding a supportive community while making changes in your business.Resources from this episode:Join Liberated Business - doors close soon for 2025 cohort!Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic SheetsConnect with Felicia:Instagram: @the_bad_therapistWebsite: www.thebadtherapist.coachFacebook group: Healing MoneyRelated episodes: How to Ethically Raise Your Therapy Fees [Episode 46]How to Raise Your Fees & Take a Week off from Your Private Practice [Episode 2]Quote:"Your business should support your life, not the other way around." - Felicia
