SIMPLY PSYCH/A Simple Guide to Starting a Private Mental Health Practice

If you're a mental health professional tired of being overworked and underpaid, then keep reading...

Most of us became mental health providers because we are passionate about helping others. 

Unfortunately, our compassion can be taken for granted by business administrators who are more interested in profits.

Most training programs do not give trainees the resources they need to start their own private practice. As a result, many of us become employees of bigger businesses and lose autonomy. 

If you're a mental health professional looking to start your own practice but have no idea how to go about it, this course will provide simple easy-to-follow steps to starting your own private practice!
