Building A Private Practice

Using a small-group seminar format, this four-session course offers a forum in which participants can think through, from a psychodynamic perspective, some complex clinical challenges involved in building a successful private practice. We will focus on issues such as money, beginning and deepening treatment, diversity, and developing your professional support system and referral structure. We will also address issues commonly encountered when working remotely via video platform, such as Zoom, or by telephone. The course instructors will provide references for information relating to more practical issues such as record-keeping and maintaining HIPPA compliance, and some class time will be dedicated to discussing these matters. This course is designed to allow an exploration of a few crucial components of building a successful private practice. Faculty include representatives from different disciplines, providing multiple perspectives while also allowing for discipline-specific questions to be addressed.
