For Therapists:

Private Practice Consultation

Most therapists were never taught how to start a business and how to run a private practice. With the help of colleagues and tons of research, I taught myself how to start and manage my own successful and thriving private practice. Let me use the benefit of my experience (including my mistakes!) to help you start your own.

I offer informal business consultations for starting your individual private practice and Simple Practice and Sessions Health tutorials (practice management software), and I also can input your paperwork and forms into your Simple Practice or Sessions Health account.

I can help you with:

  • Getting your private practice off the ground

  • Navigating insurance, including verifying benefits and billing

  • Credentialing with insurance companies

  • Marketing strategies

  • Sample paperwork and forms (why start from scratch?)

  • Simple Practice and Sessions Health tutorials - Understanding how to use Simple Practice or Sessions Health as your EHR to simplify and streamline your private practice

  • Inputting your paperwork and forms into your EHR (I can even do this for you if you prefer)

  • Getting started with Headway, a mental healthcare billing company

See my Consultation Flyer for additional details.

Pricing

$50 per hour for one-on-one consultation, in-person or online

Contact me for more information. I am very passionate about helping therapists find their versions of success in private practice. While I’m often not accepting new therapy clients, which will be seen on the contact page, I am accepting new consultation clients.

Kind Words from Previous Consultation Clients

“Meredith was so great to work with as I was starting my private practice. She helped me with my new EHR, forms, and insurance billing. She was always so patient and kind. I really appreciated all of her help!” - S.W.

”I have known Meredith since grad school. She was the first person I thought of when I needed help setting up my private practice. She provided an overview of Simple Practice and answered credentialing questions. She is quick to respond and very knowledgeable!” -R.S.

“Meredith is an adept consultant and provided me with logistical guidance and professional encouragement I needed to start my private practice. She made starting my private practice easy. She gave me excellent ideas on where to begin with everything from starting my LLC, banking information, practice forms, website recommendations, advertising ideas, and then a very thorough training on the EHR. I could not have started my private practice without her. She exhibited comfort, warmth, and competence. Meredith was a joy to work with and will undoubtedly help you thrive as a consultant and therapist.” -M.B.
