Have you been thinking about going solo in private practice? ✨ Well, if you have it’s important to keep in mind that doing so is more than just a career move — it’s an entire mindset shift. You are going from therapist… to mental health CEO.

It can be exciting, but also nerve-wracking, and (at least at first) you may feel unsure of where to begin.   That’s why I created the to share the things I know many aren’t thinking about BEFORE they get started. 
So if you have been considering this type of shift, here are some early things to think about… ☀️Save it, revisit it, and follow
if you want more real talk along the way. You don’t have to figure this all out on your own.

Let’s be real: going from clinician to mental health CEO isn’t for everyone — and that’s okay.

But if you’ve ever felt the pull to do your own thing… to build something that’s yours… to create more freedom, flexibility, and alignment in how you serve — private practice might be your next move.

Here’s the thing most people don’t talk about:
Being a skilled clinician doesn’t automatically prepare you for being a business owner 😏

That shift? It’s not just logistical — it’s deeply mental.

When you go into private practice, you’re not just the therapist anymore.
You’re also the:
• CEO
• Marketer
• Biller
• Admin
• Tech support
• Visionary
• Decision-maker
• Problem-solver
• And (sometimes) janitor

You’re not just building a business — you’re creating a life and practice that reflects your values, your worth, and your vision.

So if you’re on the fence about going solo, ask yourself:
Am I ready to step into a new version of myself — one that leads with purpose and confidence?

The journey won’t be perfect. But it will be yours.
And that alone can make it powerful!!☀️

you also need to make room for the GOOD thoughts!!!!

Your mind is your home
When it is overcrowded with an unpleasant shift happens.

Positive thinking is not always the easiest and compared to negative thoughts definitely not. But balance cannot be created when you neglect those ‘good things’ too.

Make room for them
The shift you are looking will begin🌿✨

ARE an act of self love and self respect.

They show a commitment to your inner desire for peace and stability. Now… boundaries are NOT always easy to set and even more not always easy to sustain - but they are essential!

Remember, it’s okay to say “no” or “not right now”

It is okay to honor what your overall wellbeing needs

Growth can happen where peace is protected

PS: you WILL likely upset someone in the process!

Exploring your feelings does not need to look one particular way only!!

Which of these do you do?

By now, we all know that healing isn’t a straight line—it’s messy in fact!!! It’s raw, and sometimes it’s two steps forward, one step back.
Some days, you’ll face it head-on, other days, you’ll feel like hiding and avoid the process like the plague. And that’s okay.

Remember …
What matters is the effort, the resilience, the will to keep showing up for yourself. Progress is in the trying, not the perfection. 🌱

Holding ourselves accountable by at minimum exploring if we’ve had a role to play goes a long way!

Identifying your role does NOT justify how the other person treated you
Identifying your role does not minimize the impact it has or had on you

…. It does however invites self reflection, a powerful tool in growth and healing.
This awareness allows for change—you can adjust your approach, set boundaries, or release guilt that doesn’t belong to you. It shifts the focus from blaming others or feeling powerless to recognizing what’s within your control. Ultimately, it leads to deeper emotional clarity and growth, fostering healing from within.✨
