How to Determine What to Charge as a Therapist

We go into depth in our blog post on why a 6-figure private practice doesn’t mean anything… but how do you know what to charge as a private practice owner? You first need to determine how much money you’ll need to live. This number will vary according to the type of lifestyle you’re interested in as well as where you live.

Here’s the basic way to calculate what you need to make as a private practice owner: Calculate your take-home income, expenses, and taxes.

We have a free training on sustainable fees + your private practice therapist salary. The training walks you through the formula, expenses, and more. We also have a fee-setting calculator in Business School for Therapists that will let you know what you should charge based on all these factors in a way that makes sense.

How to Determine What to Pay Your Employees in Group Practice

We’ve said this before, and we’ll say it again: Pay your therapists well!

If you want to grow a practice with multiple six figures, treat your people with kindness and pay them a salary they can live off. We’ve helped thousands of therapists scale their businesses and have seen group practice owners grow exponentially with multiple clinicians.

Why We Encourage Finding the Salary That Best Suits Your Private Practice

Part of finding the best salary that suits you and your goals both professionally and personally includes shifting your mindset with money. Ask yourself what kind of life you’d like to live, what kind of private practice owner you’d like to be, and come to a number. Remember to do some private practice math (thanks calculator in Business School for Therapists!) and go from there.
