business consulting for practicing and prospective therapists, healers, and coaches

therapists, coaches, and healers should not be burned out.

To be present for this work, we need to create structures that help us to be present with ourselves. To be in integrity with this work, we need to have space to be in integrity with our own work. Yet many of us have been exploited by the structures and dominant narratives of being in the work of providing healing support. Whether you are unlicensed, pre-licensed, or licensed, a prospective or practicing therapist or coach, I am here to fill in the gaps of what we don’t receive: learning how to build a sustainable AND ethical practice.

Many of us find ourselves in positions of holding multiple jobs, wondering how we’ll make ends meet, taking on too many clients, lacking boundaries, fretting over rates, over-giving, and not knowing how to create fee structures that both support our well-being AND align with our values around ethical, accessible healing. And I can speak to this because I WAS THERE. It can lend itself to compassion fatigue, burn out, feeling drained, and can pull us out of the deep inspiration that brought us to this path in the first place.

The reality is, our inner work is our deepest offering to our clients. As we know ourselves from our own healing, clients don’t want “good interventions.” They want a healing resonance and vibration. And this is something that can only happen when we have space.

Making space for our holistic well-being is how we can see the depth and humanity in those who we are serving — by meeting that deeply in ourselves. If we aren’t set up financially to honor our own growth, development, and healing, it can lend itself to nihilism, numbness, and exhaustion. Setting yourself up for financial care and professional boundaries do not have to oppose the organic flow of a providing a healing relationship.

There are ways to have a healthy balance of service, making time and space for rest, evolution and healing, while creating fee structures that align with your values.

**If you are reading this as a prospective psychotherapist or coach, I also offer consulting and support on the different pathways of getting there (taking the MFT route, MSW route, or going into the wild wild west of coaching + marketing). I’ve actually done ALL THREE! While I have my degree as an MSW, I actually got halfway through my degree as an MFT first. All the while, I was coaching online. I have specific knowledge about each path and what to expect on that journey. I’d love to support you in finding your own way that aligns with your needs!

how i can support you.

4 years ago, I built a 25 person caseload in three months, and then had to cut my work hours in half because of burnout. I was underpaid and overworked. With the right support, I found a way to double my revenue, increase my sliding scale spots to make my work more accessible, and yet work half as much. I see a lot of coaches/therapists/healers struggle with a few different things:

a) building a caseload, b) retaining a caseload with regular client inquiries, c) finding the right client fit d) having a structured onboarding process e) turning a consultation call into a relationship and e) finding structure, boundaries, and balance in their professional worlds.

This is where I come in, supporting you for a vocational journey that will set you up for sustainability.

The resources I provide are sourced from a lot of trial and error, years of experience, unlearning, and relearning, and mostly, years of investing in consulting with a trusted business mentor.

I want to support you to do the same. Whether you need support marketing to build your caseload, get structures in place once you are ready to see clients, build better practices while you already are seeing clients, or need support in business/financial well-being, I can support you.

Of course, the work is need-dependent based on your unique line of work and circumstances, but some of we can work on involves…

1) exploring your relationship to money in the field of healing work

2) balancing out your caseload + increasing quality of presence in your work

3) discovering your financial goals that will provide you with the spaciousness, support, and nurturance you need to providing nurturing and service to your clients

4) creating professional boundaries in a loving, compassionate way

5) building a caseload with your ideal clients (those that are the right fit)

6) decreasing an overbooked caseload while increasing revenue

7) building the structures you need to have financial security in a job that typically does not provide health insurance, a 401K, or any other benefits most other jobs have

8) creating fee structures that allow you to work with those who can afford your services AND those who can’t

9) building a practice that feels in integrity with your values

10) supporting the conditions that will lend themselves toward your development + build confidence in your work
