190. The Secret to Growing a Thriving Private Pay Practice with Jessica Harris
About this episode
Ever wondered how to create a thriving private pay practice that gives you freedom, flexibility, and the chance to travel the world? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I chat with Jessica Harris, a single mom and therapist who went from barely getting by after grad school to building (and selling!) a successful private practice. Now, she runs a coaching business teaching other therapists how to find cash pay clients and create the lives they dream about.
Jessica shares her journey from working in agencies to launching her own business, traveling with her daughter, and discovering that mindset and strategy go hand in hand when it comes to success.
In This Episode, We Explore…
- How Jessica transitioned from agency work to her own private pay practice.
- The steps she used to attract consistent cash pay clients.
- Scaling from solo practice to group practice and eventually selling it.
- Building a coaching business that helps therapists grow their income.
- Balancing travel, business, and motherhood as a single mom.
