How to Set Your Fees in Private Practice

Why It’s Hard for Therapists to Figure out Their Fees

Fees in private practice are taboo subjects for many reasons. One, it can be difficult to talk about within professional organizations because of anti-trust laws.

Two, many people haven't been taught any process for setting their fees or developing a business plan. So, you have people making guesses, just doing what others are doing (without knowing whether that actually works or not), etc. 

Over here at zynnyme we LOVE to have the money conversation with therapists. Why? Because it is such an important conversation. If you are in private practice or starting a private practice,  you are a small business owner. If you don't have money coming in, you can't keep your business open. That is how business works. 

Today, we go over how to set fees in private practice with Jo Muirhead. We dive into how to develop a positive relationship with money, and which factors you should consider when setting your private practice fee.
