Practice-building programs and individual consultation for therapists.
Whether you are new in the field, new to private practice, or an experienced private practice owner looking to expand or transform your current work, practice-building consultations help you gain clarity, confidence, and a plan. We build on your strengths and interests to create marketing messages and strategies that feel authentic, aligned, and inspired. Conversations draw on 20 years in private practice and 18 years as the Director of the Resiliency Center of Greater Philadelphia.
Therapists, drawn into their work out of a strong desire to help, often struggle with the idea that their private practice is a business — and that they’ll need to develop entrepreneurial skills so it can thrive. Academic training programs in counseling, social work, and psychology rarely include any business classes or even meaningful dialogue about what it takes to succeed in private practice. As a result, therapists often lack the information and tools they need to succeed. Practitioners with longstanding private practices may also find themselves newly struggling to grow their businesses, faced with a changing economy, major shifts in the healthcare marketplace, and an increasingly discerning, web-savvy audience of potential clients.
Succeeding in Private Practice
Through her experience in private practice and her role as Founder of The Resiliency Center, Elizabeth Venart has learned what it takes to succeed in the business of private practice. She believes strongly that one’s passion and skills offer the best guide for creating prosperity and that strong businesses require a clear vision and a solid plan. Elizabeth helps therapists clearly identify their vision, speak about their work with confidence, create a big-picture marketing strategy to build awareness and relationships, and begin taking concrete, meaningful steps forward.
Individual and Group Consultations for Practice-Building
Because therapists have varying degrees of knowledge and comfort with the business of private practice, consultations are customized to your unique questions and needs. The work often begins by clarifying your niche and marketing strengths. For established therapists, the work may focus on identifying areas where you want to pivot or expand, evaluating current marketing initiatives, and generating new ideas and momentum. The best plans are flexible and sustainable over time.
Consultations can also include identifying blocking thoughts, cultivating a prosperity mindset, and integrating an IFS lens to support you in working through fears that block forward movement.
Through practice-building group consultations and workshops, Elizabeth teaches practitioners to redefine marketing in a way that is expansive and energizing.
