“In September of 2020, I had just resigned from ten years of working at a community mental health agency.
I had five clients in my private practice and all of them were less than half of my full fee.
As a single parent, I was in a panic about how I was going to build my practice quick enough to be able to pay for my family’s expenses.
That’s when TPA found me.
I read the testimonials and scheduled a consultation call.
When they asked me what my income goals were (which seemed outrageous at the time), they validated that my goals were achievable.
I joined TPA and dedicated myself to the program.
My practice started to grow and in December I had my busiest month.
In March, I started receiving several calls from the relationships I had developed through organic marketing and from my new website and improved Psychology Today profile (which did not provide me with many referrals previously).
By April, I was completely full at 20 clients and exceeded my monthly income goal.
I love showing up to work every day because I work with my ideal clients.
I have been able to create my ideal schedule which has allowed me the time to homeschool and spend quality time with my children. I have added to the savings account I thought I was going to have to survive off of after quitting my salaried job.
I’ve avoided burnout, and I’ve even raised my fees because I have developed confidence in myself and overcome my fear of success.
The only downside has been that I have had to refer clients to other therapists due to having a full practice – not a bad problem to have!
It feels incredible to be on the giving end of referrals.”
