This presentation is being offered free of charge as a virtual, live stream event. It will also be recorded for SCV-CAMFT members to access.
Join us for a multi-part series co-hosted by reflect, who is partnering with SCV-CAMFT. reflect’s mission is to help great therapists build thriving private practices and make quality mental health care more accessible. reflect has helped thousands of therapists grow successful practices and facilitated over 100,000 therapy sessions to date, and they’re here to share their learnings.
Whether you’re an associate curious about private practice, an experienced therapist considering a career transition, or someone with your own practice wanting additional support, you will get a lot out of this series.
This first presentation focuses on the fundamentals of private practice – including how it is different from community mental health or agency work, the additional responsibilities therapists must be aware of, business and legal considerations, and what a successful career in private practice might look like (hint: there’s a lot of upside too!). This presentation sets a solid foundation for the future presentations, so you won’t want to miss.
Future presentations will cover topics such as how to grow a practice (including online marketing), the tradeoffs between cash-pay and insurance, and starting a group practice as a supervisor. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions in a safe space with peer support!
Program Goal
The goals of the presentation include demystifying private practice psychotherapy and equipping therapists with familiarity around the fundamentals of private practice. Audience members should come with curiosity to explore a career in private practice. By the end of this series, they should have both knowledge and confidence around what it takes to build a thriving private practice, plus clear tools and techniques they can implement in their own practices.
