Clinical experience
You can expect to see individual clients and, when appropriate, co-facilitate or lead therapy groups. We encourage you to lean into your clinical passions and areas of expertise, whether that's working with young adults, perinatal mental health, trauma, relationships, or another specialty area. Our goal is to help you refine your clinical identity while providing strong supervision and mentorship.
Professional development
Beyond direct clinical work, you'll receive practical training in the business and operational aspects of private practice, including:
- Crafting and customizing intake paperwork
- Setting and communicating your clinical fees
- Managing client communication and boundaries
- Developing community referral networks
- Understanding marketing, branding, and ethical business practices
Career support & future readiness
We are deeply committed to supporting your clinical and professional growth throughout your time with us. Our training model is designed to help you build the skills, confidence, and professional identity needed to thrive in private practice. When you graduate from your training program, we hope you'll feel ready to step into your own independent practice, with the option to continue working with the patients you've developed strong therapeutic relationships with.
Outcome
Leave confident, prepared, and fully equipped to launch and manage your own thriving private practice.
