Starting a private practice can be overwhelming.

A counseling practice is one of the best ways to impact your community and establish a financially secure future.

But where do you start?

Kate Walker Training

There’s a lot of planning that goes into creating a private practice and your head is probably full of questions like...

  • How do I structure my practice (LLC, PLLC, dba, 501C3)?
  • How many clients do I need and what should I charge?
  • How do I make sure everything is HIPAA compliant?
  • Where am I going to find paperwork?
  • Where can I find templates like a super bill?
  • How do I make sure new clients find my practice?

Badass Basics 2.0 Has What You Need

You get a step-by-step walkthrough of the entire process of launching a great private practice.

With high-quality videos (that aren't too long), TONS of downloads (templates like a super bill and intake paperwork), and marketing frameworks you can use right away, you'll have your new practice up and running (or your existing practice tweaked and running like clockwork) in no time, so you can start growing and helping your community.

Your community is waiting for you!

A note from Kate...

Scary. Intimidating. Overwhelming.

These are just some of the words that probably describe how you view the world of starting a private practice. One thing is for sure though, the internet is where your potential clients are searching, and every day you’re not creating content with resources that optimizes your site in the search engines and positions you as a valued community resource, you’re missing out on reach, impact, and income.

Kate Walker Training

Since 2007, I’ve recorded over 1,000 hours of course content and have had over $1 million in online course sales, including the top-ranked, 40 Hour LPC/LMFT Supervisor Training Course.

But more importantly, I’ve taught thousands of people just like you how to start, grow and make money from their private practices.

I know what works and what doesn’t, because I’ve been there and I've paid attention to really smart business people. It’s not just about how to start a practice, but how to grow a practice, keep it compliant with HIPAA and state laws, and turn it into something that could potentially generate an income for you without burning you out in the process.

It's about working smarter not harder.

That’s my specialty. I want to make sure that when you start your practice, you’ll have the best chance to create a solid foundation, get a strong marketing base, and turn it into the practice of your dreams.

There are many challenges in starting and growing a practice, but my proven online course, Badass Basics, is based on material that has helped thousands of other students, You Tube subscribers, and members of my Facebook group, Texas Counselors Creating Badass Businesses.

Now, it’s your turn. Share your message and let's keep saving the world with excellent therapy.
