Making the Leap to Private Practice
Transitioning from group to private practice can be intimidating. But it offers the freedom and control to build the practice of your dreams.

Therapists are trained in providing mental health care to their clients, not in running a small business. If you find the prospect of starting a private practice daunting, you’re not alone. Read on to understand how clinicians like Meagan Faraone, Marian Cooper, and Shane King have eased the transition from group practice to private practice.
I currently hold clinical licenses in six different states. Other companies only covered two of my six states, or were only in one of my states.
Each state has their own set of licensing and renewal requirements. In the past, the leaders at your group practice were likely responsible for letting you know of any relevant licensing or renewal requirements that would impact your clinical standing. Now, it’s all up to you.
The burden of multi-state licensure typically compounds the stress of getting credentialed with insurance panels, making it difficult to provide in-network care to caseloads that are distributed across state lines.
