#2 Starting a Private Practice: A Step-By-Step Checklist (2024)

Let me guess, you’re here because you have a fire inside you that’s running through your veins and pulling you to start your own business.

The rational part of you thinks you’re crazy, but you can’t shush that pull inside of you. I know, because I’ve been right where you are right this second.

I’m here to tell you that it’s not easy but it’s 100% possible.

Welcome to Private Practice Lounge, a podcast dedicated to providing therapists with the tools and knowledge they need to achieve success in their private practices. I’m Janessa Borges, a first gen Latina therapist, that teaches other therapists how to grow successful full paying private practices with zero stress.

I’ve easily spent over $25,000 on business programs, strategy, marketing directors, mentoring, coaching, advertising, and failed efforts with no direction.

I wanted to share with you what I’ve learned without you having to spend the thousands upon thousands of dollars in the process, without the financial, time or emotional loss, heart break and burn out.

In this episode, I’ll go over a straightforward and easy to follow checklist that will protect you as a therapist and help you get started the right way. Depending on your state, there may be some different requirements, so I’ll let you know who you need to check with. If you go in the order of the checklist, you’ll have a stress free journey to starting your private practice!

So here we go…

Resource: Are you ready to stop playing small and scale your business?

I’m an expert in reading people, and extracting what you WANT to say and communicate it clearly and effectively to those you want to connect with. (Like a translator)

I put all the puzzle pieces together and help you apply it to your business.

One of the challenges in all the podcasts you’ve listened to, or the expensive programs and coaching you’ve paid for, is that you just didn’t quite get the success you were hoping for.

You didn’t have the individualized help you needed to apply it, or the coaches you have worked with just didn’t “get you.” Right?

The best programs work BUT you need a side-kick to help you apply all you’ve learned (and all you’re missing) so you get the results YOU need!

Even with all of their secret sauces, magic recipes, and playbooks you seem to be missing something…the secret ingredient to make it work for YOU.

My gift is seeing past where you’re stuck. I can see your vision, pull it out of your heart and your mind and create results.

I make sure your gifts are highlighted in a way that speaks to your ideal client, so they say “I want to work with HER!”
