Buildng business intelligence  is essential for  therapists  whether you are a solo practitioner, or own a multi-disciplinary  agency. Health care service delivery is rapidly changing as we shift from a healthcare referral system to a consumer choice system.  There is too much risk involved to build a practice  on trial and error and begging forgiveness rather than seeking out information, and asking permission.  The market place is becoming crowded.  Everyone  is seeking to get a piece of the health care dollar pie, as the industry  transitions from being in the sickness business to being in the health business.

Use this website
as a resource guide for the latest  news and info on topics related to private practice.  The goal is always to help build actionable ideas that are results-focused. It is difficult to make some decisions on your own - is it better to "stay and grow" or "sell and go"? Sometimes, you may not know when you have taken your "foot" off the gas and are just coasting; my experience based services can help!  The price of success is less than you think – check out the many low cost workbooks and forms to help get or keep your practice on the right track.  Feel free to contact me at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it   if you have any questions or would like to set up a consultation.  And stay tuned for new products and resources to help you as you build your practice.
