Starting a private practice can be a daunting and exciting experience. I remember when I was starting my practice, I wished there was just some sort of roadmap I could follow. I felt like I was constantly learning about all the various options when it came to how to set up my business and I had to try and figure out what each of those options meant. So many choices and decisions to make!

Fast forward, now Stephanie and I have been operating our own private practices for several years and we both love the business side of having a private practice. We want to share the lessons we’ve learned along the way to help you create the private practice of your dreams.
