Welcome to The Therapist Experience Podcast, the podcast where we interview successful therapists about what it's really like growing a private practice.
The Therapist Experience provides you with a full MBA in private practice building, and it's everything you wish you had learned in grad school but they never taught you.
We discuss everything from private practice marketing, the entrepreneurial journey, income streams, the importance of niching down, what to charge per session, how to use technology to grow your practice, and the roller coaster of being a business owner. Learn from other mental health professionals about what worked for them in marketing their private practice and their overall entrepreneurial journey, so you can grow a thriving private practice yourself!

When Babita Spinelli was moving away from a career as an attorney on Wall Street, she sought the help of a Therapist to make sense of the transition. From this experience, Babita decided to pursue her license and open a private practice of her own. While Babita sees a wide variety of clients, she specializes in helping individuals who are experiencing significant life transitions. List to the episode to learn more about Babita’s decision to enter the mental health field and how she built a thriving private practice.
On the Therapist Experience, we’ve often heard about clinicians that choose to enter the mental health field out of a desire to help others face challenges similar to their own. Trish McLean is one of these clinicians. When she opened her private practice, it was the result of personal struggles with mental wellness, as well as the challenges of caring for a family member with mental health issues of their own. By understanding her clients and connecting with them on a personal level, Trish was able to grow her business from a solo practice to a thriving group practice with multiple offices within a year.
