Journey to Private Practice

A First Generation Latina's Story of Success & Strategy

Hi Amiguita!

I’m Janessa Borges, a Latina therapist, speaker, business strategist, and private practice expert.

In my new book, Journey to Private Practice, I dive deep into my personal story of overcoming generational trauma, navigating life as part of a marginalized community, and battling imposter syndrome to build a successful six-figure practice that supports my entire family—right in one of the most expensive cities in the United States.

This isn’t just a story about business success; it’s about resilience, courage, and determination. 

Over a decade ago, I opened my private practice, replaced my full-time income and quit my job ...

(Sí, me llamaron loca.)

I started my practice in New Jersey and made ALL OF THE MISTAKES that I now teach my clients how to avoid. After relocating to Florida, I restarted my practice and was fully booked in just three months—that’s when I knew I had unlocked the secret to building a successful private practice without stress. I began teaching other therapists how to do the same, launched a course, and founded a company dedicated to helping entrepreneurs build multi-six-figure businesses.

Creating my private practice transformed my life, giving me the freedom to move from an exhausting clinical job to running a profitable, impactful business. 

From Cuba to Courage: My Family’s Journey

In my new book, Journey to Private Practice, I dive deep into my personal story of overcoming generational trauma and navigating life as part of a marginalized community. My family fled Cuba to escape the military draft at just 13 years old, migrating to the U.S. with a large Cuban family and facing the challenges of adjusting to a new life. These early experiences instilled in me the resilience and courage that would later become essential in building my private practice.

Facing Imposter Syndrome in Grad School

It wasn’t until grad school that I realized I was a minority, and that realization shook me. The lack of representation and support within the academic and professional world fueled my imposter syndrome. But rather than letting it hold me back, I used it as motivation to push forward. I saw firsthand the broken systems within education and social work—and I was determined to rise above them.

Building a Six-Figure Practice Against All Odds

Despite these challenges, I built a successful six-figure practice that supports my entire family—in one of the most expensive cities in the United States. The key to my success? The exact strategies I outline in Private Practice Blueprint™. From choosing the right business structure to marketing my services and setting clear boundaries, these proven methods helped me create a thriving practice without the stress.

My journey from overcoming generational trauma and systemic barriers to building a profitable private practice inspired me to help others do the same.
