All Things Private Practice Podcast for Therapists

Episode 114: How To Expand Your Private Practice Across State Lines [featuring Candace Morey]

Show Notes

Expanding your Private Practice into multiple states can feel tricky to navigate. How do you market to new audiences? How do you navigate the different tax and business laws? How do you attract new staff, especially if you're not physically present?

During this episode, Candace Morey and I talk about all of this and more, so that you can confidently grow your practices and expand your vision.

3 Key Takeaways:

1. Hiring the Right Fit: Candace emphasizes the importance of evaluating both candidates and the practice during the interview process to ensure a good working relationship.

2. Flexibility and Creativity in Business Expansion: We discussed the logistics of expanding into new states, overcoming regulatory roadblocks, and thinking outside the box to navigate challenges encountered in business expansion. Being creative and flexible is key to success.

3. Prioritizing People Over Profit: Candace and I agree that creating a positive work environment and supporting employees' aspirations and needs is crucial. By focusing on transparency, authenticity, and prioritizing people over profit, we attract and retain top talent for our practices.

A Note From Candace:

I’m Candace and I like to keep it real.

I’ve worked tons of different jobs in several industries and have seen firsthand the commonalities of burned-out employees—myself included. Researching burnout and bearing witness to broken systems, it was a simple conclusion that continuing to participate in this field wouldn't be sustainable at this pace and in these environments. Increasing personal flexibility in my life while improving the lives of community members were driving factors in creating 413 Theraworks. Downshifting from overdrive took some time, but once I hit my stride, it became my mission to offer this opportunity to other providers in my field. Building a space for other therapists to actually want to show up and do this incredibly hard work every day with compassion, laughs, and sometimes tears are what keeps me going. Ensuring 413 Theraworks employees continued to feel valued, heard, safe, and supported is my priority.

You can also find me teaching others how to talk about hard things, confront limiting beliefs head-on, and show up authentically across all roles in business and life.

I’m board-certified as a licensed mental health counselor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and a licensed clinical mental health counselor in the state of Vermont.

A Thanks to Our Sponsors: The Receptionist for iPad, Alma, & Therapy Notes!

✨ The Receptionist for iPad:

I would also like to thank The Receptionist for iPad for sponsoring this episode.

As you prepare for the new year as a private practice owner, one area of your business where you might be able to level up your client experience is from the moment that they enter your office and check in with you. For many private practices, the client check-in process can be a bit awkward and confusing.

Clients often enter into an empty waiting room. And chances are you're wrapping up a session with someone else, so there's no way of knowing when they arrive. With a visitor management system like The Receptionist for iPad, you can provide clients with a discreet and secure way to check in for their appointment while instantly being notified of their arrival.

What's more, The Receptionist offers an iPad list check-in option where clients can scan a QR code to check in, which negates the need for you to buy an iPad and stand. Go to thereceptionist.com/privatepractice and sign up for a free 14-day trial. When you do, you'll get your first month free. And don't forget to ask about our iPad list check-in option.
