Private Practice Unlocked: Helping Therapists Build Profitable Businesses Without Sacrificing Quality Care for Their Patients
Welcome to Private Practice Unlocked
You dreamed of owning your own practice: making a difference, setting your own schedule, and building something that actually supports your life. But what you didn’t dream of were the paperwork, insurance headaches, and late-night Google rabbit holes about taxes and EHRs.
In this very first episode of Private Practice Unlocked, Amber shares the real reason she started this podcast and what she wishes someone had told her when she launched her own practice. From a highlighter and a stack of blog posts to building a business aligned with her values, she made the mistakes so you don’t have to.
If you’re a therapist or mental health provider looking to start or grow a private practice without the burnout, shame spirals, or jargon, you’re in the right place.
In this episode, Amber talks about:
- her personal journey from community mental health to private practice owner
- The moment she realized grad school didn’t teach us how to run a business
- The common struggles no one prepares you for (like setting fees or writing a cancellation policy)
- Why Amber believes therapists deserve financial success and clinical integrity
- What to expect from future episodes: strategy, mindset, systems, and real talk
If you’ve ever felt like you should already know how to do all of this—listen in. You’re not behind. You’re not alone. And you can do this.
