Alternatives to Starting a Private Practice as a Therapist
Private practice might seem like the golden ticket, but it’s not the only path to professional fulfillment. A growing number of therapists are finding a sweet spot by joining group private practices.
A group private practice like Growing Self offers a balanced middle path. You get the autonomy, the good pay, and the chance to do the work you love, but without the administrative work that a solo private practice requires. They handle the marketing, connect you with a steady stream of clients, and provide billing and after-hours support.
Starting a private practice is a significant decision and it’s vital to weigh the pros and cons. For those seeking a middle ground, a group private practice could offer the best of both worlds. Remember, whether you choose private practice, group practice, or another path entirely, the most important thing is to find a professional home that aligns with your values, skills, and career goals. Here’s to finding your perfect fit and thriving in your career as a therapist!
