Money Nuts & Bolts

Money Nuts & Bolts I’m a therapist turned money coach who helps therapists feel calm and in control of their finances. I’m like half therapist, half bookkeeper.

​As the daughter of an accountant, I inherited a good dose of bookkeeping brain. So when I went into private practice I dug right into all the ways to build a healthy business that pays for my life and always has extra money in the bank.

​I also saw my super skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business. Some had even left private practice, or were avoiding starting one, because the money side was too stressful. So I put my lucky combination of people and money skills together, and Nuts & Bolts was born. I help therapists develop peace of mind about their money. Since so many of us were never taught about money, I focus the “how” of making the financial side of private practice doable, and even super satisfying (feeling competent and calm about your money is pretty swell!)

I offer in-person and online one-on-one financial consulting, and online resources to help your money skills grow.

Whether you’re thinking about selling your private practice or it wasn’t even on your radar, this week’s podcast episode will give you a lot to think about — and work towards.

For many private practice owners, the end-of-the-road often looks like quietly closing the door, but it can be exciting to entertain the idea of selling your practice one day.

In my latest conversation with registered psychotherapist Liane Wood, we dig into:

🧱the emotional blocks therapists face around identity and money
⚙️the practical systems that make a business transferable
🧠how shifting into a CEO mindset can turn your practice into a true asset rather than a job you can never leave

Separating who you are from what you own means that you’re no longer trapped inside your own practice.

Instead, you’re running a business that can support you, your clients, and potentially future owners down the road. It allows your practice to become less stressful, and more profitable and resilient. 💪

By making these shifts now, you are creating options for your future — whether that be stepping back, delegating, taking real time off, or eventually passing your legacy on to someone aligned.

Building a sellable therapy practice isn’t about exiting — it’s about creating more freedom, sustainability, and financial clarity in your personal and professional life. ✨

When your business has clean finances, clear systems, diversified revenue, and a brand that isn’t dependent on you alone, everything feels lighter.

Our 200th episode of Money Skills for Therapists: The Podcast is live 🎉

And this conversation with my business besties, Tiffany McLain and Maegan Megginson, was definitely more honest than polished.

Together, we unpacked the real seasons of entrepreneurship.

We talked about what it feels like when you’re all in: launching, creating, hiring, dreaming bigger.

And we also opened up about the quieter seasons: reducing your client load, winding down programs, letting team members go, or wondering if you even want to keep doing this work in the same way…

But the one thing we kept circling back to is this:
Your business is allowed to change as you change. ✨

There are seasons where you build aggressively, seasons where you stabilize, seasons where you question everything, and seasons where you rediscover joy.

You don’t have to cling to an old identity just because it once worked.
You don’t have to keep scaling just because you can.
And you don’t have to quit just because you’re tired.

Sometimes, the best move you can make is slowing down long enough to ask yourself:
“What season am I actually in?” 🌿

If you’ve ever felt both love and resentment toward your business, this conversation is for you!

It’s true…

The price for my signature course, Money Skills for Therapists, is going up in just a couple of weeks.

Raising your fees is a natural—and necessary—part of running a healthy, sustainable business that can take care of you, so you can continue to take care of others. 💗

It creates a positive ripple effect, and it’s something that I highly recommend all therapists and health practitioners do on a regular basis.

And as a money coach who has taught hundreds of private practice and group practice owners over the years, it’s important that I don’t just talk the talk…

So here I am, walking the walk. And hopefully inspiring you to invest in yourself and price your work sustainably too.

With that said, if you’ve been wanting to take the course but have been waiting for the “right time,” now is your chance to join us at the current price of $1,997 before it goes up to $2,497 in March.

That’s $500 in savings for simply taking action now and getting the support you need (and deserve) to finally feel calm and in control of your private practice finances.

It’s a win-win 🙌

Seasonal slowdowns can shake even the most well-run therapy practices—especially group practices navigating payroll, profit, and growth at the same time.

But they don’t have to feel scary or reactive. ✨

In this week’s coaching episode, I sat down with Stef Iverson and Lucinda Bibbs—business partners and grads of Money Skills for Group Practice Owners—to talk about what it *actually* looks like to manage cash flow during a summer slump while staying aligned with long-term vision, wellness, and expansion. 🌱

My biggest takeaway? Replacing scrambling with structure is incredibly empowering. 🙌

When you know your numbers and build safety into your business, you create space to rest, plan, and make thoughtful decisions—even when revenue dips.

We also unpacked how to experiment with new wellness offerings without abandoning the “main ship” of your group practice—and how to tell when an idea needs more time vs. when it’s simply not financially aligned (yet).

Slow seasons don’t mean you’re doing something wrong. They’re part of running a *real* business.

With clear numbers, intentional buffers, and honest conversations, you can build a practice that feels both secure and flexible enough to grow where it matters most. 💛

🥵 Feel like a “hot mess” with money?
😬 Avoiding your business finances because you keep getting stuck?
💸 Tried to work on your finances before… only to fall right back into the same patterns?

If this 👆 is you, there’s something I want you to know:
You’re not *bad* with money.

The real issue? Your relationship with money hasn’t changed yet.

Our beliefs and emotions around money can be powerful (and often invisible) barriers—keeping us stuck, overwhelmed, and avoiding our numbers. And until those shift, nothing really sticks and you can’t make lasting change.

That’s exactly why I created “The Secret to Getting Unstuck in Your Finances” — a FREE 60-minute live workshop to help you build a healthier, more empowered relationship with money that is essential to getting your finances in order.

✨ Workshop details:
🗓️ Wednesday, February 11
⏰ 9am PT / 12pm ET

One of the most powerful (and often unspoken) ways we shape our kids’ relationship with money is through our own financial values and beliefs. ✨

The way we talk about money.
How we feel about money.
The habits we build around money.

All of it gets absorbed — and often inherited — by our children.

In this week’s solo episode, I reflect on the big role we play as parents in creating the money stories our kids will carry into adulthood.

Whether we realize it or not, we’re planting seeds every day. Which is why it’s so important to pause and ask ourselves:
👉 What do I actually want my child to learn about money from me?

When we get honest about our own money values, we can model what we actually want to pass on to them instead of defaulting to inherited beliefs or unconscious patterns.

Ultimately, it’s about giving our kids practical skills, emotional confidence, and a healthier relationship with money than many of us were ever taught.

Are you noticing patterns of over-giving, financial stress, or people-pleasing showing up in how you lead your group practice?

Most of us were never taught how to run a business—let alone how to manage money, or lead in a way that’s both ethical and sustainable.

This week on the podcast, licensed therapist and group practice owner Gordon Brewer and I have an honest conversation about money mindset, boundaries, hiring mistakes, and what it *really* takes to build a financially sustainable group practice without burning out or sacrificing quality of care.

Gordon shares the hard lessons he learned from over-giving with compensation, avoiding tough conversations, and underestimating the importance of clear financial systems.

Building a sustainable group practice doesn’t just happen with good intentions alone. It requires clarity, financial transparency, aligned values, a willingness to course-correct, and leadership that supports everyone involved—including you.

If you identify as a “nice” leader who’s quietly paying the price for unclear boundaries, this episode will help you feel less alone—and more empowered to lead with confidence. 🙌

01/21/2026

Do you feel a deep tension around pricing—especially when creating group offers, workshops, or professional-facing experiences during uncertain social, political, and economic times?

If so, you’re not alone.

In this week’s coaching episode, I sit down with trauma therapist Kim Torrence to explore what *really* comes up when we try to assign value to our work. We unpack the emotional and mindset barriers that keep so many therapists offering their most meaningful work for free—or far below what’s sustainable.

If you’re navigating private practice finances, pricing group offers, or trying to honor both your values and your well-being, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and grounded next steps.

And always remember:
✨ Pricing your work too low doesn’t make it more accessible; it often just makes it harder to keep going.

Save this reminder 👆 and tune into this week’s episode for reflections and practical actions around pricing, worthiness, and financial sustainability.

01/16/2026

As we start to take our financial needs seriously—raising fees, setting boundaries, and valuing our work—those shifts don’t stay contained to our businesses. They often ripple into our personal lives, especially our friendships.

In this week’s podcast episode, I talk about what can happen when we move from self-sacrifice to self-advocacy, and how that transition can quietly (or painfully) change the dynamics of the relationships we’ve built.

If you’ve ever felt conflicted between honoring your own needs and preserving friendships you care about, save these reflections 👇 and make sure you tune into my latest episode for more.

I offer a compassionate lens for making sense of these changes and reassurance that while some connections may fall away, others—often deeper and more mutual—can emerge in their place. 💗
